Ok so here goes. " Are you sure about this? " asked the senior aide to the man next to him. The allegations were borderline unbelievable even given what they knew. The man nodded soberly slowly taking the file back. " But why show it to us now? I mean Senator Kennedy is months away from even...

I agree with you that a third Roosevelt Presidency would most likely happen in the 1940s but it immediately makes her part of the establishment. Think Hilary Clinton for a contemporary example. Secondly having it in the 1960s broadened the scope of the story substantially. I must confess that...

No problem, the older man's meant to be Audie Murphy the most decorated veteran of World War 2. By all accounts even aside of his war hero status he was a gem of a guy. I don't think he'd normally do something like this but yeah do you see a World War hero refusing an order from Prest...

Alabama 1963, The two young women stood outside the university apprehensive when they noticed an older man walking towards them in a military uniform. He was in 40s lightly built but had a calming energy about him. He was clearly in charge of the military men who appeared and he looked at the...

I must thank all of you for your feedback. You've given me a lot of valuable insights into how to tweak the timeline

I need to state, something about the age thing here. Considering in 2019 Bernie Sanders is 78, Joe Biden is 77 and Trump is 72 it doesn't seem to really be an issue in American politics. Given Bernie Sanders' voters all skewed to a far younger age I don't see the youth wave of the 1960s being an...

Edited it. Thanks for your feedback :)

Washington, V-E day, 2012 " On today's very special edition of the great and powerful please welcome the podcast please welcome the great and powerful Colin Powell! " Said Joe Rogan to his audience as Colin Powell ascended the podium. The veterans nodded respectfully to the former Commander in...

The main reason I thought of Eleanor Roosevelt was that she would have a name brand which no other politician at the time even today might be able to match. I'd actually thought of setting it in the 1940s or 1950s but then it threatened to become a dynastic drama. This isn't Hilary Clinton in...

The Super Bowl 2020 J Lo sat down for her post Super Bowl interview with ESPN. " Definitely I mean you can't imagine what it was like for a young girl to see that image. My mother used to frame it, " she said. " Seeing three powerful woman together in such a tragic moment was something all...

That's true but considering Regan was 76/77 before finishing his term it's just about an acceptable break. [Spoilers] Probably end her term sometime into LBJ's real life first term. Let's see how the TL progresses. Im doing it on mobile and net is pretty slow but I'll try to add them. I'd...

Any parts of the timeline you guys would like me to focus on?

Eleanor Roosevelt was without a doubt a woman who aside of her being FDR's wife led a remarkable career. This timeline came about because I've always wondered what she would her presence would have done in the 1960s. Obviously her death in 1962 is butterflied.

New York, Late 1950s John and Robert sat both of them looking at the charts. John was trailing ahead slightly nut it was clear that Nixon was looking ahead. Robert poured a glass of stout Bourbon. " Even if I run how would it look Robert? " He asked. " Nixon's been a vice president for a decade...

22nd November 1963, Texas The men Secret Service officer looked at the chart who confirmed and the doctor nodded. POTUS was dead most likely dead even before he reached the hospital. Agent Horrigan acknowledged it calling it in. 3 hours later The Vice President looked at the First Lady hugging...

If the force is coming from inside the States it might presumably be timed so as not to attract attention. How did they think they were going hold these cities though given the nypd and other police departments have militarised to insane degrees?

At least in India it would have been possible given close Japanese ties to the nationalist movements. Germany did try something similar in causing a rebellion in India in the Fist World War.
