7. Earl Browder
Earl Browder was a legitimate political figure in the 1930s and 1940s. There was just one small issue that served as a hurdle blocking him from becoming US President: Browder was a communist and even the leader of the Communist Party USA for a time. That, as you would probably imagine, played at least a little bit of a role in Browder failing to win an election. It also did not help his cause that he was an alleged secret Soviet agent running for president. Browder would have certainly been a president unlike any other that the country has had, but it was just not meant to be.
