I’ll start.
1: An old Italian veteran of the communist movement
2: Gus Hall
3: William Z. Foster.

- Neighbourhood Babushka

-
A friend
-
Her grandfather, a recipient of the Stalin Prize
-
J.V. Stalin
-
Friend’s parent met Fidel
Fidel met Khrushchev
Khrushchev met Stalin
So, four. I think.
Woah you got the Cuba Libre route!
I think Fidel met a ton of Americans during his visit(s) to the USA.
That means plenty of opportunities for Americans to be close to uncle Joe
I’m very close to this. My friend met Che’s daughter, so I’m at 5, because we add one more.
- Without providing too much personal info, I’m connected to Golda Meir, who was Israel’s USSR ambassador in the 50s.
Now that sounds like some fun history

- george bush
idk how far george bush is from stalin
How the devil did you meet a bush?
I met Poppy Bush once since he came to my middle school to do a speech. Maybe it was something like that.
Probably
Bush Sr.
Mao Zedong
Stalin
Bush Jr > Bush Sr > Eisenhower > Stalin
- george bush
1: Alex Trebek
3: Pierre Trudeau
4: Nikita Khrushchev
5: Stalin
I’m not totally sure that Tebek and Trudeau shook hands ever, but they were both active in public facing roles in Ottawa at the same time.
The maple syrup route, I see
15+ at least due to the nature of the exercise i wouldn’t rule it out entirely but i have no idea how
1: Joe Biden
2: Jimmy Carter
3: Brezhnev
4: Khrushchev
5: Stalin
I’m like 95% sure there’s a shorter path in there I just don’t know who those people actually met
I want to say there may be a shorter connection via Biden and his handshake with Anwar El-Sadat of Egypt to some Soviet official to Stalin, but I’m not sure either
Piggybacking on your Carter link but through Robin Williams or Al Franken.
Looks like Brezhnev met with Stalin in 1952, so you can skip over Khrushchev
If you met Biden, it’s basically:
-
Biden
-
Some career politician who was around during FDR/Eisenhower’s administration. Biden is a shameless sycophantic career politician, so there’s a 100% he would’ve sucked up to some ancient politician who personally worked with FDR or Eisenhower.
-
FDR/Eisenhower
-
Stalin
-
4 possibly 5. My grandpa via Georgi Dimitrov to Stalin
ties to our Bulgarian anti-fascist supersoldier!
I’m two steps from Kollontai, so it can’t be that far off.
It’s possible that she never directly met with Stalin, but she definately interacted directly with Molotov.
