Rantaro Amami

Rantaro Amami is the former 6th President of the United States.

Participation in Olympics
Amami was a contestant in the 2074 San Juan Summed Olympics. This led to much controversy surrounding claims of nepotism, favoritism of a former president and statements that Amami was unqualified to represent the U.S.A. Plaintiffs presented the former president's lack of experience in running as evidence.

Nevertheless, Amami went on to win Bronze in Men's BMX and Gold in Long Jump, cementing his legacy as an Olympic athlete. Amami was disqualified from the semifinal heat.

T-shirts featuring photos of Amami's iconic BMX backflip began circulating on Twitter after the event. Balenciaga eventually bought the rights to the design and sold the shirts for a limited time before discontinuing them in early 2075.

Tax evasion and fraud
In April of 2049, Elon Musk, winner of Times Magazine "Guyfail" award, brought forward a lawsuit against Amami for alleged tax fraud and evasion of taxes totaling an estimated $200 million U.S.D. in revenue. Musk claimed Amami had written off multiple unrelated expenses as business related, including a private jet and three golf courses.

Amami publicly refuted these allegations before the case went to court. During the jury selection period, Elon Musk mysteriously passed away in his North Carolina home and the case was subsequently thrown out.

Allegations of vehicular manslaughter
In October of 2051, after Amami's presidency, tweets surfaced alleging the presidential automobile had been involved in a fatal collision with a motocyclist.

The image most circulated online showed the wreckage of the distinct lime green 2030 Chevrolet Hubler, identifiable by Amami's well-known bumper sticker of his own face. The photo was eventually linked to former president Eldelgard von Hresvelg along with multiple accounts that had retweeted it.

Addison Rae, CEO of Twitter at the time, publicly denounced von Hresvelg's actions as a "smear campaign" in her own tweet.

In the court case, von Hresvelg pled guilty and admitted to having generated the image with A.I. Amami was cleared of all charges.
