The Search for a Successor A Timeline in a Week by Statesman ------------------------- Statesman! What is this? A Timeline in a Week, of course! Well, the hope is to finish it before the end of the year, to be specific. I mean, it's been a while. I've been working over in Shared Worlds...

There's a common expression that "Only Nixon could go to China". I think the general idea behind it is two fold, that it was a combination of diplomatic ingenuity and Nixon's anti-communist credentials from his Congressional career, only he could do something so bold and pull it off both...

Well, just like the title says really. William Canendish was the husband of Kathleen Kennedy (JFK's little sister) and ran in a by-election in 1944 for Parliament. Let's say he wins that, but what course would be need to chart through British politics to become Prime Minister? Bonus points if...

Just like the title says, folks. How could a war between America and Japan come about before World War One, and what would it be like? How does this influence World War One and (if it happens) World War Two?

Alright, so this is a pretty self explanatory title I think... Just wondering under what circumstances would/could a President appoint themselves as the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court? Who would be most likely to do such a thing? I suppose just appointing themselves to the Supreme Court as...

Theodore Roosevelt was considered a likely candidate for the GOP Presidential Nomination in 1920 before he passed away in 1919. Let's say his health let's him stay alive a little longer and he gets the nomination - who does he pick as a running mate? How does it affect the Democratic Nomination...

Alrighty folks, I'm taking a break from my usually politically related forum postings to ask a little about another realm of intellectual thought that interests me greatly - philosophy. While I don't know in full detail the history of the philosophical thoughts that emerged in the wake of WWI...

The premise here is pretty simply, I suppose. What if Al Smith won the Democratic Nomination in 1932? Who would his VP pick be and how would he fair in the General Election in a rematch with Herbert Hoover? Surely in 1932 he could win despite his Catholicism, right? But by how much? Thoughts?

Let Us Continue: After Camelot A Timeline in a Week by Statesman -------------------------------------------------- "There has been an attempt," Walter Cronkite began, "As perhaps you know now, on the life of President Kennedy. He was wounded in an automobile driving from Dallas...

-------------------------------------------------- When John Boehner announced in late September his intention to resign from the Speakership, it left many in shock. Though he had faced pressure from the right within his party before, he had always held his ground until September 25th, 2015...

Statesman... Isn't the Shuffling the Deck Idea a bit tried? Maybe, but I like innovating. So what's this exactly, then? Take all of the GOP Presidential Nominees from 1948 to 2012, and reshuffle the order they were nominated. So... The Presidents might be different from OTL...

Grand Marshal Douglas MacArthur was hanged in Washington D.C. by the American People's Militia. (December 7th, 1941) -------------------------------------------------- Um... Statesman, what's this? This is my attempt at overcoming writer's block. Okay. But what is it? It's inspired by...

The Seventies A Decade of Darkness Richard Nixon in his Famed Return to the White House ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Statesman... AH.com… What's this? Some of you may have known I've been working on a...

Hey, everybody! Hey, Statesman. I can tell this isn't a part of the Challengerverse. Is this that new project you've mentioned? No, I'm afraid not. That still needs a lot of planning. This is a side project. Well, then, what is this? And, did I read that right, "Three Timelines"? You did...
