Watchmen : Nixon
Re: Nixon
Term limits were repealed, so he was repeatedly elected president. At the end of the opening credit sequence (just before the Molotov cocktail gets thrown into the store window) Nixon is shown winning reelection in the 1970s and the words "term limits repealed" appear on the television screens.

Nightmare!
He would still have been younger than Reagan who was actually president then.
