About an hour after they had left with him , my brother looks at me and says "Did we just find the legitimate president?" I spent the next 3 hours googling trying to see if I just gave him the golden goose. I had them transport the senator to his brother, a general in the Milgov friendly forces of nevada and he was kinda hidden away just in case Mil gov ever found out.
Then to mess with them I had them encounter National Guards men in northern New Mexico under command of the true president. Made a little conspiracy back story and everything. Radio broadcast calling all loyal citizens to arms and every once in awhile coming across small groups of refugees or a few stragglers making there way to the president.

This is kind of what I mean. While the canon is interesting, it does have its flaws and ultimately a GM is going to tailor the game to their own campaign. I like the idea of the senator and the general being related, for example, that's a nice detail.
