I was thinking of starting a fanclub but I thought I'd just let everyone know who he is first.

The guy was pure win really. Gotta go see his grave someday.

Hahaha...so he was a self-proclaimed emperor of the United States?

That's pretty hilarious. He tried to take military action against congress when they didn't cease meeting after he abolished it. Hah!

Ooooh...and he issued his own money. Now there's a badass.

All hail the emperor!

Good man. He was well meaning, but just declaring yourself emperor is not enough. lol
