Keith E. Chism was the XX president of the United States from 2018 to 2023 and was the first New Liberals president since 1998. Prior to becoming president, Keith had very little experience in national politics, only being a state representative for the majority of his political career. He would make a successful run for Senator in 1990, where between 1998-2003 he would go on to serve as the chairperson for the Congressional Committee for Civil Rights. After the New Liberals major loss in 2003, only comprising about 2% of total authority in the federal government, Keith would end up retiring from politics and took upon his congressional pension to start a foundation to support people of color's education and life, to help keep them out of prison.
Keith was the first black president in US history, and also the first non-white and atheist president. He was mainly known for attempting the largest justice reform in the 21st century, which includes directing the Department of Justice to implement a $92B initiative to reform all US federal prisons to be rehabilitative as opposed to punitive like they have been since the US's founding in the 18th century. He is noted by historians as being the most costly president in recent history.
