The first three rounds of the draft have been completed.

My first big break of the game, as I randomly got the #1 pick. Yes Adlai Stevenson, welcome to the moderate faction.

In the second round, I got Maxwell Taylor. In real life, his highlight was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff after serving with distinction during WW2.

My third pick was Brien McMahon, who was a senator from CT in real life. He was the author of the atomic energy act. Unfortunately he died of lung cancer at age 48. Hopefully that won't repeat itself in this version of history.

In all, I have 13 new members of my faction. The next step is to determine career paths. There are seven different career paths you can place new draft picks on. However, you can only place one per path, so I have to choose carefully. These paths represent things like military service, private business, lower level judges, congressional aides, etc. This is a way to grow your politicians to become more powerful later.
