We're continuning to dig into other would-be Julius Caesar presidents of American history. The men who never were nominated, and maybe never even ran, but who could have been either the great Man of the People who'd lead us to glory.... or terrible Imperators who tore us apart. I'll be posting a bunch of these throughout this week.

In this case - the 2nd-most-famous Union general and the guy who (gleefully) burnt down Atlanta, but turned down being President: William Tecumseh Sherman.
