Shouldn't this be moved to the maps and graphics forum? Not trying to bring people down, but it seems like it should be there.

This is really difficult without changing the US electoral system (see Duverger's law). It's not impossible, but difficult, as the UK shows us. Maybe the Progressives do better in 1912-1930s, and force the US to adopt a different electoral system? Also, I think JelloBiafra's timeline...

I rather like that.

Wonderful work. One of the timelines that I followed closely, though I rarely posted. It will be missed.

Pretty much all you've said applies to the electoral college as it stands today: win a couple of big states (California and New York for the Democrats, Texas and a combination of one to three other safe GOP states), plus some of the battleground states (Virginia, Missouri, Iowa, etc.). A large...

Shouldn't it be "Republic of Columbia?"

"Their evil runs like maple syrup across our borders."

What might have been: President Vinick's speech regarding the escalation of forces in Kazakhstan.

Terre Haute, IN. It's pretty dead now, but at one time it was a major crossroads for the country (in fact, Terre Haute was originally called "The Crossroads of America"; Indiana/Indianapolis stole the slogan later). There was plenty of industry and railroad work, as well as mining and trade...

A thought I had for a communist/socialist USA, but without the trappings of a typical commie flag (red stars, hammer and sickle, etc.) Based off an old Confederate flag. Just looking for thoughts/suggestions/criticism. Don't hold back - I have thick skin. A broad red field for socialism/the...

I tried to tell from your time zone wiki box, but what's the situation in the Midwest? It looks like the old US Northwest Territory is united (Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, etc.), but what's its story?

Top 10, for sure. As for the original topic, that's really the best one out there (at least as far as I've found). Maybe go through some episode summaries at some fan sites?

"Bartlet's accomplishments as President include granting amnesty to illegal immigrants from the Americas, appointing the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice and first female Chief Justice, negotiating a peace settlement between Israel and Palestine, creating millions of new jobs, providing...

Hail, Excelsior! All hail, Excelsior, hail! (All hail!) All hail, Excelsior, hail! (All hail!) This glorious land of liberty, Shall long be ours. Well-known her name, Great be her fame, And mighty be her powers, And mighty be her powers. In joy and gladness, With one heart and one...
