The Centre Can Hold

Attlee’s postponement of the next election until 1952 granted Labour a third election victory and ended Winston Churchill’s political career. Gaitskell’s ascension in 1953 and his victory in the 1955 election sealed Bevan’s fate and his expulsion lead to an exodus of his most loyal supporters. Whilst this split in the Labour party kept them in Opposition throughout the 1960's, it did rid them of the more extremist elements and committed them to Centre-Left politics. The Conservatives found their way back into power through Macmillan’s New Democratic Party which had formed an anti-Socialist alliance with the equally hopeless Liberals and championed the Butskellism of the new age. Centrist politics was here to stay.

Did someone bomb the White House AND The Capitol?

 

[Hydrons (Retired Account)]

Hillary's America

45. Hillary Clinton / Tim Kaine (Dem.) 2017-2021

Madam President

Hillary Clinton would be seen as an average president. She would make numerous attempts at bipartisanship, but with a Republican dominated Congress, most of which were on a "Conservative Crusade", blocked every attempt. Her strongest suit would be in foreign policy. Her expertise would allow US and Kurdish forces to reach the capital of ISIS, Al Raqqa, in October 2017. ISIS forces were completely forced out of Syria by 2019, and they were now known as the ISI, or the Islamic State of Iraq. US-Russian relations would become the most tense they had been since the 80s, and Interventions were made in Libya and Zimbabwe. As for domestic policy, little to nothing would get done there, with the Republican Congress blocking almost all Democratic legislation. She had maintained a good amount of popularity, even with her email scandal, which would eventually catch up to her, and her popularity would only start to tank from there. Although she faced little opposition in the primaries, much of the country was against her, and in 2020, She lost reelection to Republican Texas Senator Ted Cruz, another Conservative Crusader and the runner-up for the Republican presidential nomination back in 2016.

46. Ted Cruz / Ben Sasse (Rep.) 2021-2029

Texas Ted

Ted Cruz would be an above average president. He would be best known for the collapse of the ISI under his administration, and his healthcare reform. Although the GOP would lose control of the House and Senate in 2022, the GOP would take back some seats in the Senate in 2024 and 2026. In 2026, Obamacare became insolvent, and Cruz would be able to implement his healthcare bill. His proposal would be "as long as insurers provide a plan that follow the regulations Obamacare had, they are allowed to provide plans that dont". This would be known as the "American Freedom Healthcare Act", and it would pass with with a 54-48 vote in the Senate (Puerto Rico was admitted as a state on January 1, 2026).

47. Kyrsten Sinema / Julian Castro (Dem.) 2029-2037

Among the Greats

Kyrsten Sinema was a first for many reasons. She was the first President from Arizona, the first female senator from her state, and the first LGBT president. She was also the second female president and the second president to not marry. Although a moderate, she was anti-war, a more liberal stance. After taking office, she would become a major proponent of world peace, and at a perfect time. With the death of Putin in 2027, Russia would become more democratic, electing Alexei Navalny in 2030. A union would be made between Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine in 2032, known as the Eurasian Union, which would join NATO in 2034. China completely drops communism in 2036, and unifies with Taiwan. With the world in relative unity, nuclear weapons become illegal, and become extinct in 2040, well after Sinema's Presidency. As of the present day, in the year 2043, a global fight against global warming is taking place. The world's major powers are all in alliance, and Sinema is remembered as one of America's Greats.

Did someone bomb the White House AND The Capitol?

On Halloween of 2019 Donald Trump's political career is reduced to a pile of ashes when self-proclaimed "first lady" Ivana Zelníčková flips in exchange for a deal which will protect her daughter Ivanka. A mother's love brings an end to a reign of terror as Trump becomes the first President to be impeached. Vice President Pence assumes office eager to Coolidge his way out of the blame, but only three hours into his term he is struck by a lightning bolt and instantly killed.

House Speaker Fudge becomes President Fudge. More moderate than some Democrats would like and unpopular with some of the former establishment for taking Pelosi's job, she attempts to govern as a unifier - something which disappoints many Democrats who believe the time has come for punishment. Hoping to minimize division and rebuild trust in government, President Fudge includes a number of Republicans in her administration and seeks to conceal some of the worst of Trump's missteps and scandals from the public. This is a mistake. A band of teenage hackers break into secure files and release them online, revealing that the White House is being dishonest with the American people. The Republican Party pounce, spinning Fudge as complicit in Republican scandals ("she must really be corrupt if she's helping us!"). The President attempts to claim she was concealing information to protect national security and to spare America further embarrassment, but the damage is done. She announces she will not be seeking reelection in 2020 just as Florida's Rick Scott begins to take off in his campaigning.

All the polls show that "Senator Voldemort" is mid to high single digits down compares to Vice President Bullock, but the man has a gift for unexpected victories. He narrowly wins the electoral college while losing the popular vote by a similar margin seen in 2016. He and Vice President DeVos begin their reign of terror which is particularly harmful to students. The old men who once led the resistance succumb to age or political death, but it finds a new leader in the youthful newcomer Jess Phoenix. Phoenix rallies minorities and the youth against Scott in unprecedented numbers, but the President is nonetheless confident. He has a wall of seven states which he believes makes him (electorally) invincible to any challenge. He is the master of the elder vote and thus is guaranteed victory.

Except he isn't. The true master of the elder vote is the quixotic campaign of Eric Trump. Scott is vanquished. It is the beginning of nineteen years of Democratic domination of every level of government. All is well.

The Sacrifices We Must All Make

John B. Anderson/Pat Lucey 1981-1985

1980: Def. Jimmy Carter/Walter Mondale, Ronald Reagan/George HW Bush, Ed Clark/David Koch

Anderson emerged as the unlikely victory of the 1980 presidential elections after the favorite to win, former California governor Ronald Reagan, experienced a dementia episode in the middle of a presidential debate. This event coupled with Carter’s unpopularity enabled Anderson to win the 1980 election (which also saw the Libertarian candidate win the state of Alaska in a major upset). Anderson would be almost a lame duck from the beginning, with both parties seeking to limit his accomplishments. Despite roadblocks, Anderson would fail to pass the Equal Rights Amendment, but did successfully end of the era of stagflation. Anderson would also establish his own political party, dubbed the Justice Party as a vehicle for his centrist policies. Anderson would also continue the policy of détente with the USSR. One of Anderson’s biggest and most lasting accomplishments was electoral reform, beginning the implementation of a two-round electoral system in the United States. Ironically, he would end up suffering electoral defeat due to these rules.

Bob Dole/Lamar Alexander 1985-1989

1984: (first round) Def. Walter Mondale/Gary Hart, John B. Anderson/Pat Lucey, Ed Crane/David Bergland

(second round) Def. Walter Mondale/Gary Hart

Dole ran as a bridge between moderate and conservative Republicans in the primaries and managed to win despite having far less charisma than the now-hospitalized Reagan. Dole implemented a generally conservative economic program, cutting taxes, regulations and certain areas of spending. Dole would not be particularly hardline on these areas and was even less so on social and foreign policy. Hawks were disappointed by Dole’s continued willingness to negotiate with the USSR and reluctance to send US troops to intervene overseas stemming from his own experiences as a veteran. Dole also failed to push aggressively on social conservatism, which earned ire from many evangelicals and other social conservatives. Dole’s failure to appease these elements of his party coupled with an economic dip in 1988 paved the way for the failure of his bid for reelection.

Dick Gephardt/Mario Cuomo 1989-1997

1988: (first round) Def. Bob Dole/Lamar Alexander, Lowell Weicker/Paul Tsongas, Ron Paul/Russell Means

(second round) Def. Bob Dole/Lamar Alexander

1992: (first round) Def. Ross Perot/Jim Jeffords, Jack Kemp/Phil Gramm, Russell Means/Mary Ruwart

(second round) Def. Ross Perot/Jim Jeffords

Gephardt was the president to be elected to a second term since Nixon and was a far more respected president than the aforementioned man had been. Gephardt campaigned as a pro-labor but otherwise generally moderate Democrat and won by a decent, but not spectacular margin. Gephardt would preside over the end of the Cold War, as the USSR gave way to the Compact of Independent States. Gephardt also would send troops to Kuwait to stave off invasion threats from Saddam Hussein’s Iraq and into South Africa after the messy collapse of apartheid in 1993. Domestically, Gephardt reversed much of Dole’s tax cuts (though not back to the levels they had been in the 1970’s) and strengthened regulations on the financial sector. Additionally, Gephardt would raise the minimum wage and attempt to implement a universal healthcare system, though members of the Union Party (its decline prior to 1992 reversed by the injection of much-needed funding from businessman Ross Perot) and Republicans successfully blocked the proposal.

Pete Wilson/Carroll Campbell 1997-2001

1996: (first round) Def. Mario Cuomo/Joe Biden, Joe Lieberman/John McCain, Dana Rohrabacher/Don Gorman

(second round) Def. Mario Cuomo/Joe Biden

Wilson marked a sharp turn to the right for the US over Gephardt. Wilson was especially hardline on issues pertaining to illegal immigration, seeking to build a wall along the Mexican border and deny taxpayer-funded services to illegal immigrants. His continual picking of fights on the issue of immigration resulted in two government shutdowns over budgetary issues, enough that the economy sank into a recession in 2000. Wilson was more successful on foreign policy issues, ending the war in South Africa and launching a limited campaign of airstrikes on Iraq. Overall, however, Wilson’s administration went poorly and he was considered dead on arrival in his reelection bid.

Buddy Roemer/Doug Wilder 2001-2009

2000: (first round) Def. Paul Wellstone/Joseph P. Kennedy II, Pete Wilson/Carroll Campbell, Clint Eastwood/Bob Barr

(second round) Def. Paul Wellstone/Joseph P. Kennedy II

2004: (first round) Def. Fred Thompson/Jeb Bush, Jerry Brown/Al Sharpton, Ron Paul/Peter Schiff

(second round) Def. Fred Thompson/Jeb Bush

Roemer was the first Union Party president since Anderson and to date is the only Unionist elected to two terms. Roemer’s key accomplishments included the passage of campaign finance reform that restricted the quantities one could donate, welfare reform designed to cut costs to taxpayers and make the system more efficient and strong anti-crime stances that saw the War on Drugs ramped up. Roemer also pushed for a balanced budget and managed to have one for the 2003 fiscal year, but afterwards failed to maintain such a budget. Nevertheless, Roemer did help bring the economy out of the recession it had experienced under Wilson and ensured it grew throughout his time in office. On foreign affairs, Roemer generally had a light touch, entering agreements to limit carbon emissions and sending the Navy to make North Korea back away from saber-rattling with the South in 2004. Terrorism became an increasing concern under Roemer and he would authorize the creation of the Department of Counterterrorist Activities in 2003 after a failed attempt to bomb the Golden Gate Bridge.

Roseanne Barr/Howard Dean 2009-2013

2008: (first round) Def. Mike Huckabee/Herman Cain, Jim Webb/Norm Coleman, Andrew Napolitano/Dennis Miller

(second round) Def. Mike Huckabee/Herman Cain

An actress turned governor of California, Barr was the first female president, a true milestone for the country. Unfortunately, she also bears the distinction of being among the worst presidents. Barr won running as a progressive firebrand, but after winning showed an uglier side. Her push for universal Medicare coverage, a living wage and tax hikes had mixed success but was offset by her hardline rhetoric, authoritarian personality and key personal flaws. Barr had a very difficult relationship with the media and often responded to criticism via screaming. She also (as it turned out) was rather racist, at one point being recorded as calling Congressman Barack Obama (a Democrat who often broke from his party) a “monkey.” Barr’s repeated failures even alienated most members of the Democratic Party and by the time the economy crashed in 2012, it had long been clear she would not be serving a second term.

Sam Brownback/Rick Scott 2013-2021

2012: (first round) Def. Joe Manchin/Mitt Romney, Rand Paul/Tom Woods, Roseanne Barr/Howard Dean

(second round) Def. Joe Manchin/Mitt Romney

2016: (first round) Def. Mark Cuban/Jon Huntsman, Lawrence Lessig/Tulsi Gabbard, Glenn Jacobs/John MacAfee

(second round) Def. Mark Cuban/Jon Huntsman

Brownback was the first Republican to win a second term since Nixon and won despite long odds both times. Manchin and Cuban had been favored in both elections and in the latter case, Cuban had beaten Brownback in the first round. Nevertheless, Brownback won both the electoral college and popular vote both times. Brownback campaigned as the heir to the long-dead Reagan and largely governed in land with conservative principles. While learning from Wilson’s errors not to push things too far, Brownback drastically cut taxes, exited the climate agreement negotiated by Roemer, implemented deregulation and lowered government spending enough that it would have balanced the budget had 2007 tax rates been maintained. Brownback would pursue a more militarily interventionist foreign policy abroad, launching wars in Syria and Iran after a terrorist attack by an Iranian national killed 103 people in Boston. These interventions were initially popular, but they would ultimately become quagmire conflicts that led to the rise of antiwar figures in the Democratic Party and an increase in the Libertarian Party’s popularity as it was embraced by some conservatives and moderates of a more isolationist bent. Brownback also sought to implement socially conservative policies against abortion and same-sex marriage, but these efforts were blocked by the other three parties.

Justin Amash/Mark Sanford 2021-

2020: (first round) Def. Russ Feingold/Andrew Gillum, Rick Scott/Herman Cain, John Hickenlooper/Kirstin Gillibrand

(second round) Def. Russ Feingold/Andrew Gillum

Antiwar sentiment dominated the spirit of the 2020 election cycle. Feingold was seen as practically guaranteed to make it to the second round. However, the big surprise was the Libertarians. Justin Amash was a young Congressman-turned-Senator from Michigan and he earned a surprisingly big online following due to his tech-saviness, antiwar credentials and strong minority outreach. Despite these factors, few observers predicted that he would edge out Vice President Scott in the electoral college thanks to carrying Michigan and thus moving on to the second round forty years after Ed Clark had become the first Libertarian to win a state. After making it to the next round, Amash surprised many commentators once again by emerging victorious over Feingold, becoming the first Libertarian president. Only time will tell where his administration will go, but Amash has promised an end to the Middle Eastern wars, an audit of the Federal Reserve, spending cuts and marijuana legalization.

Who Watches The Watchmen

A stab at the elections in the Watchmen Universe. Presumably the first two are the same, as RFK was still assassinated in this universe and the impetus for the Watergate scandal occurred, though the Comedian stopped people from finding out. And Gerald Ford is apparently still Nixon's VP. Minor Doomsday Clock spoilers

Abridged list
[1] As a consequence of the differences in the Watchmen timeline, Reagan remains a Democrat. As per Watchmen canon, thanks to Edward Blake and Dr Manhattan. Agnew's scandal doesn't occur/is covered up, but Nixon still drops him as he was tempted to IOTL 1972.
[2] Without Dr Manhattan or the Comedian's influence, Nixon isn't able to run a sixth time.
[3] This is a nod to how in Doomsday Clock, Redford is a thinly veiled allegory of Donald Trump(clearly the DC writers aren't fond of him).
[4] George HW Bush is still a Republican here, but his son isn't. Reagan was apparently running for president in '88 in Watchmen. A cowboy actor and a cowboy
[5] Latest point in the Watchmen timeline is November 22 or 23 1992, his first term isn't over yet
[6] Nod to a First Lady Hillary Clinton running, using another Clinton as his running mate and an OTL First Lady, Nancy, being the nominee. Redford won, of course

• 37: Richard Nixon(1969-1989)/Spiro Agnew(1969-1977), Gerald Ford(1977-1989)
• 38: Robert Redford/Donald Trump(1989-199X)

This is epicly dystopian. The fact that America survives World War Three, but not a terrorist attack, amazes me.

This is epicly dystopian. The fact that America survives World War Three, but not a terrorist attack, amazes me.

To be fair, World War III was fought with sci-fi weapons and the terrorist attack was a nuclear bomb being detonated in DC.

Spoiler

[1] A controversial figure in Liberal circles, King is best remembered as a convert who came to the reform cause too late; although he managed to hold on to power during the 1930 election, his attempts at alleviating the Depression with the traditional Liberal policies of free trade and internal investment failed and he was ousted from office by Bennett in 1933.
[2] Although he was narrowly defeated by the incumbent Mackenzie King in 1930, Bennett returned in the election of ’33 to unseat his old foe with a reform agenda crafted by his personal advisor Stephen Leacock modelled on President Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal. Bennett’s successful resuscitation of the Canadian economy, his leading role in the formation of the British Commonwealth Union, and his leadership through the second World War resulted in five consecutive Conservative majorities and established a Tory dynasty that survives to this day. Retired in 1946 as his health began to waver.
[3] Tory reformer and nationalist, Herridge was a close advisor and ally to Bennett through the 30s and 40s. Although the two men differed greatly in their attitudes to Empire, they were united by their shared belief in the need for a paternalist and Tory approach to government. Retired at age 71 before the 1957 election.
[4] An impassioned cold warrior and defender of capitalism and the British Empire, Drew split from the Tories over Herridge’s “parochial nationalism” and isolationist foreign policy. Although never prime minister himself, Drew’s political campaigns and advocacy under the ‘Freedom and Free Enterprise’ banner insured that his particular brand of anglophilic and Blue Tory politics could not be ignored by Canada’s two major parties.

Cartoon Presidents

A mixture of Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama and South Park ideas. Just assume that around 1993 is when the Simpsons characters in this scenario start to age
* Died, ** Killed, *** resigned/impeached

The U.S Presidents were the Old United States Of America's leaders from 1789 until the War of (23)'08 saw the collapse of the US government. The Middle USA(2308-2443) used fiefdoms as was common in the Second Middle Ages(and first) until the Second Coming of Jesus in 2443 saw a second collapse of government. James Dean Stark(2430-2544), a U.S native of the (now defunct) East Virginia state, saw the reconstitution of government in 2476 and established the Earth Government in 2483. He served as the first Earth President from 2489 to 2497, and his choice only to serve two terms revived the tradition of a two-term limit, though it was only established as rule once more after the murderous reigns of John Quincy Addings Machine**(2825-2837) and Andrew Jackson's head(2837-2861)

41: George H.W Bush/Dan Quayle(1989-1993)
42: Bill Clinton**/Al Gore(1993-1996): President Clinton was replaced and later died(accidentally because of Homer's bumbling) by Kang and Kodos
43: Al Gore(1996-1997): Was technically president upon Clinton's death, until Kang Johnson's victory over "Bill Clinton"/Kodos Johnson
44: Kang Johnson***/Jack Kemp(1997): Though exposed, he was still elected rather than let a third party be victorious. He was officially the Republican Bob Dole. Kang was forced to flee thanks to a board with two nails in it
45: Jack Kemp/George W Bush(1997-2001)
46: George W Bush/Dick Cheney(2001-2009): Would have lost to Al Gore if it weren't for a time travelling robot
47: Barack Obama(2009)/Joe Biden(2009-2013), Cletus Spuckler(2013-2017)
48: Herbert Garrison***/Caitylin Jenner(2017-2019): Garrison was eventually impeached over using a nuke on Canada, sexually assaulting his cabinet and "being f***ing insane"
49: Caitlyn Jenner/Bob Dole's ghost(2019-2021)
50: Hillary Clinton/Lisa Simpson(2021-2025)
51: Donald Trump/Krusty the Clown(2025-2029): Still considered "eh, he's better than Garrison"
52: Lisa Simpson/Yancy Fry Jr(2029-2033): First straight female president
53: Joe Douchebag/Ralph Wiggum(2033-2041): First president with a name more ridiculous than "Millard Fillmore", yet his humanitarian efforts ended up making the word douchebag no longer a curse word. Curiously both his Democrat opponents were Senator Daterape and Turd Sandwich, who overcame decades of ridicule for what their drunken abusive parents named them and proved successful politicians in their own right
54: Ralph Wiggum(2041-2045)/Eric Cartman***(2041-2042), a half-eaten sandwich(2042), Snagglepuss(2042-2045): Eric Cartman is considered the most notorious vice president in Earth history, having released Cthulhu to kill hippies and Jews a second time, having again fed his opponents their parents with chili and being a total sociopath. He only got away with it the first time because South Park is full of idiots and he was a child at the time. A sandwich and fictional character was considered a breath of fresh air
55: Charles M Burns/Waylon Smithers(2045-2053)
56: Bobo the Chimp/Bill Clinton's ghost(2053-2057): Bobo the Chimp was the result of massive dissatisfaction from past history. Bill Clinton's ghost returned as the power behind the man
57: Abraham Lincoln's head/Philip J Fry II(2057-2065): Thanks to Ron Popeli's research, during the mid-21st century humanity was able to revive figures as heads in jars. However after 20 historical figures were revived, the means of restoration were lost until the Trek Revolution of the 23rd century. As he was president before
58: Jesse Ventura/Jojo Clancy Simpson(2065-2069): Jesse Ventura had cryogenically froze himself in Applied Cryogenics. When he awoke, he ran succsefully for president. Famed Chief Justice Bart Simpson saw his son chosen for vice president
59: Chester Z Arthur/Joseph Doe(2069-2077): Descendant of Chester A Arthur, Z Arthur saw the enslavement of humanity by cyborgs, and also saw their un-enslavement
60: FXJHR/Jane Doe(2077-2085): The second most violent president the US has ever had and the first alien president, having devoured his opponents and took thousands of skulls as war trophies. Ironically he would be one of the greatest presidents in terms of domestic reforms and fixing the economy. He preserved himself in his Mighty Sarcophagus and was revived to be the 60th Earth President from 2937 to 2945, where he led Earth in Worlds War II. The most violent US president, of course, is Andrew Jackson
