Hey guys, I'm back!!! I'll get back to the Goldwater TL after I work some things out in the story, but for the meantime, I'll be writing a Beatles TL. Get pumped! :D

Let's say John Lennon's mother Julia doesn't die in 1958. How does this affect John and the future of the Beatles? John won't nearly be as traumatized as he was OTL, and probably will be better off mentally. John will still have the terrible memory of losing his father, however. :( Hopefully...

What if JK Rowling decided to have Harry Potter die in The Deathly Hallows? How would fans react, and would Harry Potter be as successful as it is now, or even more?

Just as it says. What if Sarah Palin stays as Governor of Alaska, without resigning? I assume she would win re-election in 2010: it was a Republican year and she'd probably be more popular without her resignation. It also means that she wouldn't have as expanded of a national profile as she did...

Hey guys, I was looking at my old Goldwater TL and I decided to redo it, as I was unsatisfied with parts of it. There will be elements of my old Goldwater timeline (some parts are straight up copied and pasted from the original Goldwater TL), but I hope that you will all find this version more...

Your mission, should you accept it, is to make Reagan's Presidency even more successful in the eyes of historians than it already is. Now you might be saying: "But Reagan is already seen as successful!" While that is true, your job is to make Reagan's Presidency from 1981-1989 so successful that...

What if Prop 187 is found constitutional by the Federal courts? What effect does this have on the California GOP, and what effect does this have on illegal immigration?

In honor of John Lennon's birthday, I thought I'd make a John Lennon thread. :D I wouldn't be surprised if this topic has been covered before, but what do you think would've happened if John Lennon had survived (and was in perfectly healthy condition)? IIRC he planned to take a tour of England...

What if Hubert Humphrey doesn't get cancer? Does he run in 1976? I think he could win if he did, especially if he tries to portray Ford as running for Nixon's third term. How does the HHH Presidency look? Does he fall victim to Carter's flaws, and if so, does Reagan defeat him in 1980?

What if Richard Nixon was successful in his bid for the Governorship of California in 1962? How does his Governorship go? Does he win in 1966? Does he bother to run for Prez in 1968? Is Reagan's political career completely butterflied away?

OK, here's my next challenge, folks. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to send Ron Paul to the White House. With a POD no earlier than January 1, 2007, Ron Paul must fairly win the Republican Nomination for President in 2008. He must beat the Democrats in a fair election...

Hey guys, so how would FDR's life and the course of American history change if he had not gotten polio? What are the butterflies that come about?

Alright, here's an AH challenge that might be a bit ASB, but let's see if it can't be done. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to have the Beatles not break up when they did. All four members must stay in the band until at least the 1980s, so no replacements. Bonus points if you...

OK everybody, what if John Lennon doesn't meet Yoko Ono in 1966? How does the path of the Beatles change, and how does Lennon's life change for that matter?

How would the 1924 Presidential Election have panned out without Robert La Follette in the picture? Could Coolidge have possibly won 70.6% of the vote, an outrageously high percentage? The butterflies probably wouldn't be too drastic, and I imagine Coolidge's second term would've largely been...

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to make Sharron Angle the President of the United States. She must have the same views she has now, she must be elected in a "fair" election (so no 1912-like splits in the Democratic Party), she must win 270+ in the Electoral College (so no...

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to send Glenn Beck to the White House. Conditions: -Glenn Beck must have the same views that he has now (and it must be known that he has these views) -Glenn Beck must be elected in a "fair" election (meaning he doesn't just win because of a...

The Massachusetts Senate election of 1994 was the closest Senate election in Ted Kennedy's career (save for the special election in 1962). What if Mitt Romney managed to beat out Kennedy for the Senate seat? What butterflies would that lead to? How does he do in the Senate? Does he run for Prez...

The challenge: Make Kucinich win the Democratic nomination and win the general election of any election year you choose.

Hey guys! I normally post on the US Election Atlas forum, but I decided that I'd try out my hand writing a timeline on this website (if you'd like to read the timeline I'm working on in the Atlas Forum, read here: http://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=115233.0). Anyway, the format of...
