You're joking, right? :confused: Hippies, drug, and psychedelica :rolleyes: I think not! I think it would be more like I don't why he would possibly agree to have Elvis show at any such event like that.

Someone wrote in a similar thread on this topic a while back: "I'm certain Pope Paul knew that the liberalization of contraception use would lead to the Church's tacit acceptance of homosexuality. Think about it -- what's the ultimate difference between sterilized heterosexuality and...

Even if Elvis wanted to the Colonel would be dead-set against it.

No, not likely at all. :(

The Doors would have beem too controversal and risky, an obsenity charge was hanging over Jim Morrison' head steming from an incident that took place on March 1st of that year in Miami in which he alledgely pulled down his fly. It does make me wonder would it been prabable for Iggy Pop and the...

The Falangists were more secular than the Francoists and Primo de Rivera would have certainly been opposed to the restoration of the monarchy. I could easily see Primo siding with Foriegn Minister Sunyer and Hitler seriously comtemplating a coup deposing Franco in favor of Primo in 1941. I...

Bump..Any thoughts?

Founder and leader of the Falangist Party Jose Antonio Primo de Rivera was executed by the republicans during the Spanish Civil on November 20, 1936. There were two plots to free him from prison prior to his execution; what if one of those plots had succeded and Primo made back to safe to...

Or better yet, WI Maurice Bishop's followers were able to obtain a good # of guns and amno storm the prison and free Bishop, in the process killing some of the guards and police officiers and capturing and disarming the rest. The tables are soon turned agaisnt Bernie Coard and Hudson Austin...

But it most certainly would have become a major issue if just for the curiousity of what the Mormon religion is about. Time, Life, and Newsweek would have been running cover stories of Mormonism and LDS president David McKay would have been going to bat for Romney and publicly dispelling the...

Here's the political resume of Ms Sarah Heath of Victoria BC: 1993-1999 Member of the City Council of Victoria 1999-2004 Mayor of the City of Victoria 2003 Helped bring about (along with Stephen Harper and Pete MacKay) the merger of the Canadian Alliance Party with the Progressive...

The VP for Chuck Robb would likely be someone outside his region(the South) and it would narrow down to Bob Kerrey of Nebraska, John Kerry of Massachussetts and Dick Gephardt of Missouri. Highly PLausible Quayle would chose Jack Kemp as his VP. Finally, one should not assume this 96...

Just one problem here, Douglas MacArthur was born in 1880. He would be 76 in 1956, much too old for consideration. :rolleyes:

First of all, this would only be three years after Stonewall. Secondly, very few gay activiists and civil rights leaders were advocating such a thing back in 1972. Therefore you would need a much earlier POD in which homosexuality were giving tolerance and acceptance, and certain civil...

One of the primary reasons I base it on is the fact that in over the past one hundred years there have been two presidential rematches (1900 & 1956) and in both cases the incumbent won.

Perhpaps I should be asking you why do you think Gore would do better against the same oppenent 4 years later, or that matter, do better than Kerry did, considering the fact that Gore clearly did not run a good campaign in 2000? What do you base that on? I base on my conclusion on...

Actually I did a TL on this last year in which I had George Sr. succeding his father Prescott as Senator from Connecticut in 1962 after narrowly Abe Ribicoff in the race. He stays in the Senate for the next 36 years, and his son George W. becomes Governor of Connecticut and his other son still...

How did I know you were going to say that, LOL! :D
