How are we supposed to identify each President in this?


...since the actors don't resemble the President they are portraying?

Well, they do get introduced. So I would say that you would recognize them the same way you would any character in a broadway show

I don't know how any of the presidents looked like in real life, and I had no trouble whatsoever understanding who was who in the film.

I'm sure if you are looking and listening to the play, you'll be able to keep track.
