As a native of Tennessee I sincerely doubt Christie would take the state. We've got far, far, far, far too many sick people that depend on social services. You do any digging into the right wing that is based or from TN and you'll notice they don't touch welfare except to give it more funding.

Yup, they're a real thing. You have to remember, that before the Nazis, the swastika was just another Oriental symbol and was very common.

EDIT: Upon Quebec's independence, The Habs immediately were forced to withdraw from the league. They changed their name to the Nationalistes and joined the National Hockey League.

My favorite part of that is the fact that their swastikas are pointing in different directions.

Huh, royalty infoboxes look really empty if the person in question doesn't have a spouse or kids.
WOW! Thank you! I love it! (Except I'm not sure how she could get crowned Queen in 2006...)

Before I do the President Swift, could you do a different one? Taylor would still be in it, but she might not have to be shown. This might not be an infobox as much as a table or template. It would show the US Secretaries of Agriculture, which would be much the same up through Carter. Then Reagan would take over- and begin the process of celebritizing government. Eddie Albert would be his Agriculture Secretary. Reagan would be defeated in 1984 by Bruce Springsteen, who would wind up choosing Willie Nelson as his Agriculture Secretary. Springsteen would serve two terms, to be succeeded by President Arnold Schwarzenegger. I'm not sure who he would pick. Among the changes which would result from 1992 on would be the lowering of the voting and eligibility ages- eventually resulting in President Joe Jonas*. Jonas would of course pick Taylor as his Agriculture Secretary, since she's one of the few young celebrities with ANY Agricultural experience. However, romantic differences would lead Taylor to resign her post and run for President...and win. I'm not sure who her nominee for Agricultural Secretary would be, but I'm leaning Betty White as either that or head of the Forest Service.

Well, early sports teams weren't particularly known for having matching uniforms--especially amateur teams. They're probably homemade uniforms--took an old, dark sweater and stitched on a swastika.

Upon the retirement of legendary coach Adolf Hitler, the Red Wings fell into a major slump from which they would never recover until the 1974-75 season, when they took the Stanley Cup for the first time in over 20 years. From 1975 until 1990, they played well, but never again made it to the Canada-Newfoundland League Finals.

Uhh... I guess? I was just posting that because I suck at art, and I want half-decent logos for my hockey teams lol.

But, I hope I wasn't breaking any "unspoken rules" of the forum by posting that hahaha. If I was, I'm sorry.

I was actually referring to the wikibox SevenLeggedFallyDowner made for Orville_third.

And then Kim-jong Il takes over as coach? Or Saparmurat Nyyazov?

No, Kim Jong-Il owned a video game company until he died. His inexperienced son nearly bankrupted the company.

Two more dream-based infoboxes, but these ones are sane. I basically found myself as the modern day President-for-life of the massive Bolivian Empire that I had created in Victoria 2 (this is what I get for playing Paradox games before bed). I guess it was a slow day, because the main issue I had to deal with was whether or not to shut down a car museum that some wealthy socialist philanthropists had set up to rival the state-controlled car museum. Apparently they felt that our museum was too focused on inventors and big businessmen and didn't adequately represent the role of the lower class workers in the development of the early automobile. I told my advisers to let it go, but keep any eye on it in case it became a starting point for something more radical.

In the years leading up to the 2052 Olympics in Ramallah, the IOC ruled that artificial sapients and modified humans could not participate in the games, due to the belief that they had an unfair advantage in the games. The controversy had existed for decades*, but had existed only as some random rabble-rabbling until the 2048 games, in which Ása Aðalbjörnsdóttir, a female athlete with two cybernetic legs, won several gold medals in track and field events.

In response, the Transhuman Games, also known as the H+ Olympics or just Olympics+, was founded. It's notable for it's inclusion of chess as a sport.

*An acquaintance of mine actually wrote a paper/speech for a speech class/something about why people with prosthetics shouldn't be allowed at the Olympics.

I'm also going to try making a very special election infobox: Morgan Freeman/Alec Baldwin versus Mike Rowe/???. Battle of the narrators.
