THUNDERDOME LOSER

I guess I read it as Amy thinking that Jonah could get the nomination, which would be great for her career, but not win the presidency (great for everyone else), but at that moment she realized that with Selena at the top of the ticket he actually would end up in the White House. And she was right, he did. Fortunately Selena held onto the position for the whole term and he was impeached somewhere in there. But hey first and only ever VP to be impeached. That'll put him in the history books forever.


They never said when he was impeached. The show ends 24 years after Meyer had been reinstalled as president. One term for Meyer, two for kemi, sprett was just reelected so that`s one for him. Adds up to 16 years, leaving just enough time for Ryan to be serve 1,5 terms. Maybe Sprett was his VP for term nr 2?
That would actually make a lot of sense as unless his impeachment was recent he would not have been barred from the funeral. If Nixon could be partially redeemed in his own lifetime (President Clinton did honor him by giving an televised eulogy at his funeral after all, how toxic was he really at point?)so could (and will) Ryan given enough time. Then again having her VP that got himself impeached at her funeral would be the last thing Meyer would want no matter how many years had gone by. So you could be rigth.
