LaRouche manages to win a Democratic primary against a divided field, hence causing a gigantic walkout from the convention. During Reagan's 2nd term, LaRoucheite ideas become more and more prevalent in the Democratic party, as evidenced by the 1986 Illinois Gubernatorial election. In the end, many anti-Larouche Democrats form the Solidarity party. The Democratic party dissolves in 1989. The Solidaritists soon take their position as the number one opposition to the GOP. In 1996 they get their first win, but lose in 2000. Despite the opposition of many left-wing Solidaritists, John Edwards was nominated and with him the moderate Florida Senator Bob Graham, hence leading to a left-wing pro-DC statehood third party.
Jack Kemp, after being diagnosed with Cancer in 2003, decides not to run, his vice President, John Ashcroft, wins the nomination but loses the election.
Edwards's 1st term was generally peaceful, but the 2nd term was more rocky. For one thing, the Apartheid government in South Africa was falling apart, and the government did all it could do to keep it in power. If this meant bombing rebellious Bantustans, then so be it. This crisis led to a US intervention in South Africa. Edwards had changed policy to South Africa in order to please the minority and left wing on his party. The intervention was the straw that broke the camel's back, and the apartheid government collapsed in 2011.
Graham's presidency was even more rocky. For one thing, North Korea had invaded South Korea in 2013. The war was harder than expected, but eventually the US won out.
In 2020, the economy had a downturn, which made the Graham administration unpopular. Roy Cooper, Governor of North Carolina, won the election against Crapo. The American Independent party, which was relevant in 1968, became relevant again, as many evangelicals were critical of the pro-choice Baker. Hoefling won 4.6% of the vote, but in some states got 9%
