I'm doing research for a timeline and I wanted to see what all of you thought, what information you have and/or sources you could recomend.
The basic idea is Thomas Jefferson wins the 1796 presidential election against John Adams. Here are some questions right off.
What can Jefferson do differently to win in 1796, with a PoD no earlier then 1789?
Would John Adams accept the position of Vice President under John Adams?
Who might be in his Cabinet?
How would Foreign policy change?
How would Jefferson react to the XYZ affair, or would it not occur at all?
Would Adams run in 1800?
Would Jefferson still make the Louisiana purchase, if France still regains it from Spain?
I'm going through some material and will be coming up with more questions later. Thanks to anyone who has anything.
