  1. 2018 Presidential Election

    I've been an occasional reader of this thread and it's predecessor since the early days, but I just finished getting caught up. I just wanted to voice my appreciation for the work you've done and the enjoyment it's given me over the years.

  2. Fighting For Your Future: The Presidency of Walter Mondale

    Well that sounds ominous.

  3. Fighting For Your Future: The Presidency of Walter Mondale

    Things aren't looking good for Ronnie.

  4. List of Alternate Presidents and PMs II

    Lyndon Johnson: A Cowboy since he's from Texas. George HW Bush: Dana Carvey George W. Bush: A Texas Ranger Dwight Eisenhower: A soldier since that's really all he saw himself as anyway. Ulysses S Grant: a soldier as well. John Adams: The Penguin because he's the right height though he...

  5. List of Alternate Presidents and PMs II

    George McFly in 2020? I've always thought that'd be a fun butterfly effect of Marty not hitting the Rolls Royce in 1985. Or Marty McFly, the Rock Star President?

  6. What if Jeb Bush, not George W., Had Been President During 9/11?

    I read that statement in Meacham's Biography about HW Bush. I think you're taking it out of context. He was talking about being experiencing happiness with one son while another son was experiencing disappointment. It's possible they did favor Jeb, but I'm not sure that statement shows it.

  7. What if Jeb Bush, not George W., Had Been President During 9/11?

    Interesting that he chaired a committee that ended up choosing him.

  8. What if Jeb Bush, not George W., Had Been President During 9/11?

    Someone really should do a genuine timeline about a Jeb Presidency. Who do you think Jeb would choose as his VP assuming he could get the nomination.

  9. What if Jeb Bush, not George W., Had Been President During 9/11?

    I think that Jeb would have been a better president than his brother, but He wasn't much of natural politician or campaigner.

  10. List of Alternate Presidents and PMs II

    It does indeed!

  11. List of Alternate Presidents and PMs II

    What made you decide to use Mark Ruffalo as the Reagan analogy?

  12. Best way to have a balkanized US?

    Would you see eventually a bismarck type figure come about uniting the various factions into a united nation later in its history?

  13. DBWI: Survivor wasn't cancelled

    Survivor getting canceled sorta nipped the Reality TV craze in the bud, but I think that is a good thing. I mean wouldn't they have run out of ideas after while? What would we have now some sort of celebrity dance off show? If Survivor and a million other reality shows were still running would...

  14. How long could the union last under the articles of confederation

    If the Constitutional Convention fails to reach an agreement to a replace the constitution, how long would the nation be able to last under the Articles of Confederation? Could they have passed a fourteenth article that would act as a stop gap measure to hold the nation together for a little...

  15. AHC:Republic of the Rio Grande survives

    What would it take for the Republic of the Rio Grande to succeed in splitting off from Mexico? Perhaps even end up joining Texas in a Republic that is not part of the US.

  16. Best way to have a balkanized US?

    Would there be a way to split the fledgling nation into two nations? Maybe If we went with something between say 1789-1812? It would be neat to see a war between two major factions, one with British support, and possibly Britain ends up with the NW Territory as the Dominion of Michigan

  17. Best way to have a balkanized US?

    How easily would the various states get into actual conflicts over these land disputes? I would think that they would be vary wary of fighting each other at least at first.

  18. AHC: July 4th not the biggest federal holiday

    With a POD after July 4th, 1776 make either September 17, 1787 (constitution signed), June 21, 1788 (constitution took effect) or May 29th,1790 (last of the original 13 colonies ratifies the constitution) a bigger national holiday than July 4th.

  19. Best way to have a balkanized US?

    Sorry was meaning after the founding as in after the end of the war for independence.

  20. Best way to have a balkanized US?

    Yeah I'm think for the balkanization to come after the founding so that the nations seem somewhat familar but different at the sametime. I was thinking maybe the constitutional convention fails? What would happen to the Northwest Territory in a failed union?
