Yeltsin was the first non communist leader of Russia but he was a drunk who brought large corruption. Could any other politician have stepped up and have done a better job at bringing a western system to Russia? Also, could there have been different and better leaders in other Soviet republics...

Hello everyone. Me and Gentleman Biaggi have been coming up with this idea for a timeline for quite a while. We finally have some time so now we’re going to post the first chapter. We hope you enjoy this timeline.

Hello. I attempted to write a Hubert H. Humphrey timeline but failed. I tried again and failed worse. So now I’m allowing this to be a timeline where each of you may contribute. November 5; 1968: Hubert Humphrey wins the presidential election over Richard Nixon and George Wallace. Humphrey wins...

if the fox network fails, what happens? What shows could go on other networks? What happens to pop culture? How much does this affect other networks?

What if in 2008, John Edwards wins somehow (how is not important but stick with me). What if in the election his affairs are discovered? What if the Great Recession occurs at the same time? Who could benefit? Who wouldn’t? Would Edwards win due to a bad economy? Would McCain win with integrity...

Let’s say somehow the revolution is successful and Hungary is free of communism. What would happen? Would the other Eastern European countries revolt and overthrow earlier? How does this affect the Cold War? What are the ramifications for all involved?

If he didn't run. Who would? Would McCain win. Would Gore win. Someone else? Also will Bush come back later? Or will he stay in Texas?

What would it take for party bosses to reign supreme or at least last longer? Bonus points if you keep them to present day and beyond.

In light of Christie having left office today, this seems relevant. He was a rising star in the party and popular at this point. What if he decided to run? Could he have won or at the least lay groundwork to win in 2016?

Hello there. I had a timeline about Hubert Humphrey going but then I stopped. I’m starting again so here’s where the new one goes. The link for the old one is here: https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/the-bright-sunshine-the-presidency-of-hubert-h-humphrey.429294/ But anyways I shall...

Game shows have died out since the ‘90s with the odd exception here and there. What would it take to keep them popular enough to go into present day and be relatively successful? They don’t have to rule daytime but get decent respectable ratings.

In OTL, the show Dallas was aired in Romania. The president saw it as sufficiently anti capitalist and thought viewers would like that. This backfired horribly and is often believed to have been significant enough to help overthrow the communist government. What if someone decided not to air it...

What if Nader decided to challenge Gore in the primaries? Would he have won anything? Would the name recognition from the bid help the Green Party in the election. Would Florida even happen?

In the real world, CBS in the early 1970's, as put by Pat Buttram, "they cancelled everything with a tree in it." Now my question is what if CBS decided to keep the high rated shows despite of rural themes. What shows would be affected positively or negatively? Would certain shows last...

If he doesn't run at all (never enters), does McCarthy fare any better at the convention, does Bobby make a go at it in '72 or '76? Maybe even '80 (ironically enough). What happens?

Hi. I'm going to make this timeline in a little bit. It will be about a Humphrey presidency in 1968. This is my first timeline so I accept all comments. I hope you'll all enjoy it.

if Bush didn’t choose Dan Quayle and chose someone else, (let’s say Jack Kemp to throw a name), how does this affect the Bush presidency? Would this change possibly help or harm the ticket? What would become of Dan Quayle? Would he be a success down the line?

Hello, I’m new here. But I wanted to post my first thing here. I don’t care how you do it but I want to see how Muskie could’ve become president.
