Welcome to Next in Time! The object is to ascend the list presidents in order of their terms. For example, suppose you're initially presented with 'President Ronald Reagan' who was inaugurated in 1981. Now you're given the option to select from three other presidents int the buttons below - Truman, Nixon and George H. W. Bush. You would select 'President George H. W. Bush' since his term followed Reagan's. President George H. W. Bush would replace President Reagan and the slider would advance from 1981 to 1989. The object is to keep selecting later presidents until you reach the end of the given time range - indicated on the slider. Beware that you are under a one minute time limitation. Also, if you choose a president with an earlier term, the slider will move backwards, i.e. away from completing the date range.
