This will be a list that I will update and is only interesting to me. This list divides ED's treatment of politicians into three classes, Support, Neutral, and Oppose. For the most part this is not hard to figure out. Generally, ED supports more extreme rightist figures than extreme liberal ones and tends to support people that have traditionally been called dictators by the general public (e.g. Hitler, Pinochet). They also tend to oppose people who are currently living; especially if those living people are from the United States or leftist in nature. Jewish politicians are almost always opposed because of the greediness that ED specifically associates with their religion. Gay politicians are normally opposed because most are liberal and homosexuality goes against the generally masculine nature of ED. Also, politicians who have committed suicide are mostly commended; due to the an heroistic philosophy that ED has endorsed. This often raises the influence of little known politicians that wouldn't otherwise get an article because of the manor of their death (e.g. Budd Dwyer). This is a work in progress and will be updated slowly. Classifications will be changed a lot as I reread articles.
