It's actually based on billing. Here, Kerry would be getting top billing and therefore be first, then Edwards, and Mcawful last. The order they appear in the image doesn't matter. (Spent a year doing layouts for Sony Pictures.)

Exactly...but this was a parody and to avoid confusion I took some liberties and rearranged the billing to match the characters.

I could have rearranged the characters instead, but John Kerry as Ulyssess just didn't work as well as Edwards for obvious reasons.
