Well, P.J. Rockefeller's been doddering around the Senate for almost 70 years at this point and has had a lot of influence over the party.
What is the average life expectancy at this point? And how healthy are all these centenarian politicians?

Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems to me like a lot of these new world Democrats are a lot more powerful then their Republican counterparts.
You certainly put a lot of work in this universe.
Hmm... What is the general American opinion of socialism? I assume still negative since the USSR is still there.
Got it. Thanks. How is Welsh-American relations?Workers are great and so are unions, but socialism itself is generally frowned upon. At least the rhetoric and symbolism of it.

For the Roosevelt Wikibox I had the idea of a Blaine Presidency in 1884, which lead to an earlier Dakota statehood and Roosevelt elected as their first Senator. Given his young age he had to wait until his 30th birthday to finally take office. He was re-elected in 1892 and retired from the Senate in 1898.
Cut to a Reed Presidency in 1900, public opinion forces a Spanish American War as in OTL, Roosevelt's Rough Riders preform very similarly. For his actions in the War, and the support Reed got in becoming President, Roosevelt is given the Secretaryship of the Navy and later of State.
Then Reed's VP dies, and so does Reed himself, leaving Roosevelt as an acting-President in the sense he has no real power and he'll be replaced soon enough as both parties have their own nominations.
He returns under President Johnson as a Secretary of State again, trying to parlay himself as the real power behind the throne with all the things going on in the world: WWI, Japan War, etc. While he does good in that capacity, and is elected President in 1920, he's slowly getting out of touch with the world, and most importantly the economy, and is beaten by a Labor-friendly New Yorker by the name of Wagner.
It's an extremely rough idea to say the least. EDIT: I also put Bryan as his own Sec of State. That's a big mistake.
Here is the first in a new series of Election Boxes that i am planning.
You could be interested in the wikiboxes I've done.How in gods name did Alyssa Milano become leader of the second biggest party of the AC?
Could you also explain what kind of universe this is?
Yeah. Link to 1987 (which contains 79 and 83)For True North?
They don't hate each other but their not BFFs either. That said, the U.S. tends to be more friendly to countries in the former Anglosphere. There's significant American tourism to the British Isles, and there's been a few noted Welsh explorers and adventurers who did their exploring and adventuring under the Stars and Stripes. Anyway, another one I made today.
The Great Lodges of the Light of Uzume are a Columbianist denomination found on Iapetus, particularly within the Commonwealth of Cassini. It was founded in 2124 with the merger of the Temple of the Holy Light and the Lodges of the Dying Light. The angel Uzume is the primary angel of worship within the denomination, who is often represented as a kimono-wearing kitsune. The Light of Uzume can be characterized as a particular form of sun worship. The lodges believe that The Great Other lives on the nightside of Iapetus and that the jotunns are his servants. Like all other Charismatic Columbianist denominations, the Light of Uzume puts a great emphasis on American exceptionalism and also national service. Service on The Wall with the Minutemen is seen almost as a holy war against The Great Other.
Just as a general question, what's Columbianist view on non-Americans? I recall reading in "The Wanderer", that preacher who was giving that sermon to the centaurs said that Americans shouldn't trust non-Americans.
Columbianism is very high on American exceptionalism and nationalism. There is a distrust of foreigners, though most sects are somewhat welcoming of immigrants. Most xenophobia is directed at Communist and NAL nations, so Russia, Brazil, Arabia, India.
Are non-Americans seen as spiritually deficient in some way?
What is the capital of Dakota in this time line? Yankton? Bismark? Or somewhere else? How did they bridge the divide between the northern and southern factions? And how did someone from west river get elected? Much less someone with no connections to the local elite or major population centers? Also many of the earlier Dakota statehood attempts put the border further east as the east river establishment didn't really want to be associated with the wild frontier mining camps and this would mean the Roosevelt ranch would not be included in the new state.
...As a South Dakotan who knows a fair deal about my state's history I see a couple of things you are going to need to figure out.
