Who Brought the Matches?

Two interesting posts, both from Instapundit, both dealing with the state of the union pre-9/11, one from an intelligence point of view, one from a military point of view.

In Neil Gaiman's The Sandman there are a couple of stories involving Prez, a young man who becomes the essence of the American Dream. He meets a person from our world, and upon hearing our sequence of Presidents says something like "Oh, you're from one of those worlds." At this point, I think that's a lot truer than it was when the book was published.

So, if this is a story that makes both the Republicans and Democrats look bad, is the internet powerful enough as a meme driver to get the story into the wider world?
