Introduction: This is an experiment. It is an attempt to view history through the lens of a family history. In this series we shall follow one family, through their family tree from the Point of Divergence through to the present day. This will take the form of biographies of various people on...

So no one wants to do the AMAs?

I'll join in. From a Rootalk AMA: I'm the creator of Crime Stories. Ask me anything.

True. I would just rather have be under GHW Bush or Howard Baker than Ronald Reagan or Jesse Helms.

I think George will win in '76 beating a conservative Republican. Then a moderate Republican will win in '80 and 84. Beyond that, I can't really say. Crazy idea/theory: if Samantha Smith shows up in the '80s and beyond I hope that she lives a long life and maybe, just maybe, runs for office herself.

Shouldn’t this be in after 1900?

So will you add stuff about pop culture too? Music? TV? Movies? Star Trek? Star Wars? Queen? Punk? Bowie? The Beatles reunion? SNL? Elvis? All in the Family?

It was just my theory.

Since we're on the topic of possible Republican candidates: 1976: Former Governor Ronald Reagan (R-CA). He ran against Ford OTL and nearly won. With no incumbent Republican president to run against I can see him sweeping the primaries. Whether he'll win or lose and by how much I can't...

I know this is further down the line, but I'm wondering whether Phil Hart will be on the ticket in '76. Did you say something about that? I forget.

The Amazing Race Canada: Season 4: Times they are a-changing. This season of the Canadian version didn't shake up the formula too much and this was in a lot of ways a good thing. It was filmed from late April to late May 2016. The Cast Joel and Ashley: Former Miss Universe and her Stepfather...

Just out of curiosity is this TL going beyond the end of the war?

Isn't there a quote somewhere that goes "No Jimmy Stewart as Governor, Ronald Reagan as best friend" or something along those lines?

American support of the Canadian rebels. A border dispute. Take your pick.

No reason to think the Canadian people would rise up?

So the Americans would lose?

What if the British and the Americans were unable to set aside their differences in 1838 and went to war? Who would win? What would become of the Canadian providences? Will they join America, be independent or remain a British colony? What would be the effects?

Fair and square. If they had blatantly cheated, they would have been kicked out. What they do with the money I leave up to Ry and Nivek.

The Amazing Race: Season 28: Going online. This season was interesting. CBS wanted to try an experiment and, according to Bertram van Munster, it was suggested to bring in younger viewers who may not have been born when the show first went on the air. I can see that. Anyways, this led to the...

I don't remember if Gina Carano was mentioned at all, but how is she doing ITTL?
