This update made my night! While my knowledge of US politics in the 60s is quite limited, this is still a joy to read, and the footnotes are brilliant. Keep up the good work 037771! :D

Basically, how do you create a situation where the Gallipoli Campaign is successful in knocking the Ottoman Empire out of WWI? Historically, it's regarded as a gallant failure (particularly here in Australia, of course). How could you potentially change the planning or whatever else to...

Norton, IIRC, didn't Jack want to be a journalist before having politics thrust upon him by Papa following Joe Jr's death?

The aftermath of that would've been interesting, had they succeeded. Hitler and Stalin dividing up Britain amongst them :eek:

hehehehe, thank you for that find :D Bill Bryson, my favourite writer :D

Nope, it's fine :D Just about anything is acceptable, I'll be interested in hearing this scenario of yours. :p

Don't think this question has ever been asked, so here goes: Your challenge is to create, any time in the 20th or 21st centuries, a scenario where the USSR launches an invasion of Great Britain. It can be during WW2, a hypothetical WW3 or any time otherwise. Is this plausible, and if so...

Magnificent (and utterly terrifying) update Drew. This is the best TL I have ever read, keep up the amazing work!

Treasury Secretary Art Laffer!!! :eek: Great update as always vultan, keep it coming :D

Subscribed. Can't wait for the next update! Any hints as to how pop culture is going to change in this alternate 80s? :p

[RIGHT]I have no idea how this is achievable, but butterfly away the WGA strike of 2007-08, or at the very least have it occur for a far shorter and less damaging period. What changes with regard to TV, pop culture, film, etc? Does this mean reality TV is far less prominent than it tragically...

Great update and awesome TL!! Keep it up:D

Depends how badly the raid goes. If it's completely FUBAR (SEALs get killed, helicopters get attacked by the Pakistanis, OBL survives and boasts about it to the world, etc), the GOP paints Obama as Carter redux. The uproar would make the OTL response by the Republicans to Benghazi look like...
