  1. DBWI: Orson Welles Doesn't Go Into Politics

    Hollywood's brain but the Country's loss. We may have had Nixon as Pesident instead of him.
  2. AU Fiction: CFL-USA - A different telling.

    So how about someone going into Mexico City ?
  3. DBWI: Dodgers, Giants move west?

    Not sure the Dodgers would have really moved.to LA. I think.it was a bluff. The Giants moving made sense as 3 teams in NY were had to sustain.
  4. Won’t you be my President? - A Fred Rogers Timeline

    interesting concept. How well known was he at that point in time as the children's show host
  5. AHC: Puerto Rican President of the United States by 2012

    Roberto Clemente doesn't die in a plane crash on new years eve 72. Runs for the house in 76. Becomes a senator in the 80s. Clinton's vp in 92, wins in 2000
  6. What if the Montreal Expos remained in Canada?

    More likely to do 4 divisions of 4 in each league. Plus they won't put east and west coast teams in same division. Too much travel. Baseball is talking expansion to 32 in a few years so we may find out. Doubt Buffalo gets another shot
  7. DBWI: WI the Giants beat the Jets in OT?

    They could have called his bluff and seen if he really would have sat out Sure financially he could do it but would he? But the fallout if he did sit out would be huge. Could wreck the franchise. Better off trading him
  8. Condoleezaa Rice as a Presidential Candidate?

    She was talked about as a vp choice in 2008 but she was not interested. If she had been interested in running for President, probably would have been hard to get the nomination as I believe she is pro-choice.
  9. DBWI: California joins the United States

    I imagine it would have to become multiple states- I cant see a state that large in the US. Probably would get divided into 3 states - California, North California and South California.
  10. Man of the Hour, A Franklin Pierce Story

    interesting. Looking forward to more.
  11. WI: Dan Quayle Became POTUS?

    Not sure if Quayle would have been pro or anti-Nafta. If he took an anti-Nafta position Perot may not have run in 92. Against Quayle many of the Democratic major players like Cuomo may have run instead of sitting out so Clinton may have been out of luck.
  12. Who could have gotten a third term?

    Ike and Reagan both had health/age problems which could have been a problem. Clinton had scandal but was still popular in 2000 so he would have had a good chance GWB might have if the crash of 2008 didn't happen Obama had the best chance. Not to get into current politics but HRC ran an awful...
  13. WI Team wipeout

    every league has some top secret plan for this. I suppose it depends on exactly when it happens and which league. Would be much easier in baseball which is a team sport made up of individuals who don't have to mesh as much as the other sports. If an NFL team died on way to NFC/AFC championship...
  14. The Canadian WI Challenge

    Bronfman doesn't sell the Expos and eventually gets his new ballpark in Montreal
  15. Giuliani v Gore

    i doubt Rudy could have won the nomination as a pro-choice Republican. He would have to change position Not to get into current politics, but the religious right will overlook a candidates personal failings and past beliefs if he is willing to pledge picking the Judges they approve of for...
  16. Effects of a Ross Perot victory in 1992?

    Would have been difficult but possible. Tone down the craziness, don't drop out, get a credible running mate; have Bush have another health scare raising the spectre of President Quayle, have another Clinton infidelity issue with more teeth crop up, etc If he won, as in A Giant Sucking Sound-...
  17. AHC A Muslim US State

    I believe there are about 3 million Muslims in the US. That is a bigger population than about 12 states so even if half a million people had incentive to move to one state, they could easily be the majority. Lets say a billionaire decides he wants to create a Muslim majority state. Set up...
  18. To deal with the devil a story of 1964

    Interesting start. Curious to see where it goes and learn more about the state of the world
  19. AHC: A Native American US President

    Jim Thorpe parlayed his celebrity status into a congressional seat then Senate then vp under FDR when he dies
  20. AHC: Liberal South

    Stop the significant northern migration by African Americans in the 50s and 60s. Instead have mass southern white migration to the west..Arizona Nevada Kansas etc. If the southern states go from 70-80 percent white to 50 or less can see a flip
