That's right Gogo really is Illinois Adlai Stevenson, a former govenor of Illinois. Here is the prof that I found and want to share. I also want to add I live in Illinois so I find this to be super funny.

Gogo.....Daryl? Bah! For the first, and last time, Gogo is Adlai Stevenson! There is more evidence proving that he is Gogo than anyone else.
Found this off of a website...this evidence has been posted at GameFAQs several times, but some people just refuse to accept the truth...

The Gogo Mystery
I have tried, over the months, to convince you people to stop arguing over who gogo is accept the fact that he is Adlai Stevenson, former governor of Illinois and failed Democratic presidential candidate in 1952 and 1956.
Here is ALL the proof, and if you need more, you're sick.

I am always amazed by the resistance offered to progress, even the most inocous progress. Imagine, if you will, jumping from one rickety bridge to another, with blind men running back and forth trying to push you off, and you will have some idea what legislating progress is like. The good news is that if you're pushed off, you can always climb back up and try again.

I suppose I could wear a hat, but them my teeth would fall out to spite me. I could get false ones, but doubtless then I would get fat just to prove my teeth work. The easiest course is to drape my whole body in robes and shawls and hope no one recognizes my eyes.

President Eisenhower continues to amaze me. He appears to be an ungainly and graceless man, but when [senator Robert] Taft makes a move, no matter how ridiculous, Eisenhower copies it with the skill of [French mime] Marcel Merceau. I haven't achieved such levels of mimicry with my own party, but I'm working on it.

The legislature is a frightening thing. To this day the state capitol building seems to me a beast ready to swallow me up; the very walls and cielings seem to crush you as you walk through it.

Today we are plunged into a battle that is familliar to us. the enemies and the problems are the same. But the terrain is different. The world around us has changed and shifted so much we no longer recognize it.

Experience Egg
Stevenson's ex-wife once wrote a book about him called The Egghead and I. In 1952, one of his campaign slogans was "Stevenson - The Experienced Candidate."
When you first meet Gogo, he says "I have been idle for too long." Possibly reffering to the fact that Stevenson had been dead for 30 years when Final Fantasy VI came out.
A number of years ago a bill was passed regarding the transfer of funds among government-owned, government-operated (GOGO) laboratories. What was the name of this bill? The STEVENSON-Wydler Act, of course.
NOW are you convinced?
Come on, that just speaks for itself...
