  1. The President Lay Dying: A TLIAW

    There’s also Florida Governor Reubin Askew, but he may be too similar to Carter politically.

  2. The President Lay Dying: A TLIAW

    If you REALLY want to make TTL entertaining, make this guy Jackson’s VP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Wilson_(Texas_politician)

  3. The President Lay Dying: A TLIAW

    Well, there’s goes my prediction about Dale Bumpers! Either way, he’d be a strong contender for Jackson’s VP. Jackson, though, would need to pick him sometime before the end of 1979 to help blunt Carter’s primary challenge and give AR Dems time to choose a new Senate nominee before 1980. Also...

  4. The President Lay Dying: A TLIAW

    My hunch is that Humphrey’s going to choose Sen. Dale Bumpers to replace Carter. Like Carter, Bumper’s a southerner, but he’s also more of a New Dealer than Carter.

  5. Fighting For Your Future: The Presidency of Walter Mondale

    Once it’s fully implemented, though, there’s nothing Likud could do about it (at least, not without sparking a regional war).

  6. Fighting For Your Future: The Presidency of Walter Mondale

    I wonder if there's any way for Shimon Peres to become Israeli PM ITTL in 1987 so he can implement the London Agreement, which would've have given the West Bank to Jordan in exchange for peace? I'm not sure if anything ITTL would lead to a left bloc victory in the 1984 Israeli election, but...

  7. Fighting For Your Future: The Presidency of Walter Mondale

    It’s alive!!!

  8. A Cold War Generator(From Nixon to Nasser, Mujib to Mao)

    This is great! Thank you so much for making this! My only questions is why isn’t Frank Church an option for the Presidency? Given that Church won five primaries and was the other “Anybody But Carter” candidate besides Jerry Brown, I don’t think the possibility of him getting elected President...

  9. Who would've Howard Dean picked as his VP, had he won the nomination in 2004?

    Wesley Clark

  10. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    Well, after what happened to JSC, they certainly can’t defund NASA now.

  11. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I’m reserving judgment on the ending until I see the next episode. My hunch is that DPRK most likely got to Mars after the U.S. and USSR and there’s something about the mission that the Soviets or possibly the Chinese haven’t told us about yet (perhaps it links back to the Margo subplot?). What...

  12. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    The issue isn’t just that fossil fuel jobs are disappearing. It’s that NASA seems to be sitting on billions of dollars and the Speaker wants to redirect some of that money towards domestic needs.

  13. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    My hunch, though, is that Ellen will only serve one term because she’ll get outed and her party (and perhaps her own VP) will turn against her, so there would be a one-term Democratic President between Ellen and McCain.

  14. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    Here’s one plausible answer for Hart’s VP: Hart picks Joe Biden as his VP in 1984 to shore up his weakness with blue-collar voters while doubling-down on his message of generational change. Joe Biden has an aneurysm in Feb. 1988 (which he did in OTL) and decides not to run for VP again. Hart...

  15. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    Based on what the show’s creator said in the official FAM podcast, they’re really leaning into the “social progress has progressed faster ITTL” angle, so I don’t think it’s out of the question that Ellen could win in 1992 since she’d be TTL’s first woman President. That being said, I’m not sure...

  16. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    The map of the world in the video about the 1988 Mexican election showed the Sinai as part of Egypt, so I assume Hart was able to negotiate peace deal between Egypt and Israel at some point.

  17. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I may be reading too much into this, but the map in the video about the Mexican election showed Egypt with the Sinai. Given that the Camp David accords failed ITTL, I guess that means that Hart was able to succeed where Reagan failed. The first episode of the last season, though, also implied...

  18. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    Where does it say that Soviet and Mexican troops were conducting joint exercises? I haven’t seen anything about that in any of the videos or in the latest episode.

  19. What If Jerry Brown in 76?

  20. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    My list is pretty similar, though with a few changes: Ted Kennedy (D) 1973-1977 Ronald Reagan (R) 1977-1985 Gary Hart (D) 1985-1993 Geraldine Ferraro (D) 1993-1997 Colin Powell (R) 1997-2005 John McCain (R) 2005-2009 John F. Kennedy Jr. (D) 2009-2017 Ellen Waverly (R) 2017-Present (assuming...
