  1. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    I mean do bear in mind it is impossible difficulty, so I could see it making sense that while some elections had enough wiggle room for a candidate to win even with things being rather more difficult than OTL, that it wouldn't always be assured As for some of the ones you mentioned, I might...
  2. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    For 2000, I've found that actually Bob Graham isn't that necessary, it seems like Bayh is better, and also that going solidly liberal on abortion, while hedging on the Kyoto protocol, seems to work well, as well as just fully backing Clinton in regards to the scandals, and it looks like backing...
  3. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    You are given advice that it is a bad move only as Carter. As Ford, you are told that it upsets some women voters but also fires up the party base, its far from presented as a really bad move And sure, Presidents aren't directly involved in amendments, but some still give public support for...
  4. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    I mean, is it accurate to say that it completely flopped historically when it got just a few states less than that needed to become law, and did have support from many politicians in both parties? Plus looking at some polling from the time period, it looks like it generally polled pretty highly...

    The list of rules in the rules post says that. But I've seen the 3 images limit just applied to AH images too A little while ago, I asked about that. You can see the exchange here, with some mod input (it's a couple different posts, it's all on that one page though)...

    Here's something of an FDR/New Deal wank In the mid 1930s, FDR would run into conflict with the Supreme Court. Of the nine justices, three - the so-called "three musketeers": Brandeis, Cardozo, and Stone - generally supported the agenda of the New Deal, but 4 justices - the so-called "four...

    Just a simple little thing I did, I originally had the idea of making some fancier graphic with something other than worlda but got lazy After the Patriot's Revolt, there had been various discussions of unifying the ex-British colonies in North America, none with much success. The most...

    Oh, ok, I know I've seen some talk about this before that didn't seem to reach a clear conclusion, and I'm not the most active person, so I didn't know or see that this specific application of the rule has been consistent like you said. It's something I have wondered about before, so having seen...

    I have a question, just about the bolded part there, not the second bit. And idk if this would fall under nitpicking or 'rules lawyering' or any other such thing, I'm just genuinely not sure about this, and am curious, I think its come up in discussions before but I'm not sure I've seen any...

    The 1972 Democratic Primaries were the first contests since the McGovern-Fraser Commission which reformed the primaries in a more small-d democratic direction. In the end, in part due to grassroots support, George McGovern was able to run a successful insurgent campaign and win the Democratic...
  16. How Peaceful can France be?

    For a France that only has one war after 1815, it could be possible to do something like have France relatively quickly go revanchist after the Napoleonic Wars, and then the anti-French coalition decides that the whole 'France' thing is just more trouble than its worth, and either completely...

    My idea was something along the lines of that the shock of being defeated and completely pushed off the mainland, as well as the Soviets joining the war, caused a political shakeup in Japan, resulting in a sort of revolution/coup with a pacifistic government coming to power that wasn't communist...

    There's different interpretations of Stalin and his collectivization, certainly one of the ideas is that it was important to speed up industrialization, but one of the criticisms is that one of the ways it was intended to speed up industrialization was by expanding grain surpluses and then...

    Just a quick little worlda I made from this post and this post, nothing too special. Long story short, Chiang Kai Shek doesn't become leader of the KMT, instead the left wing of the KMT ends up holding power after Sun Yat Sen dies. The United Front continues, and the Communist Party of China...
