  1. WI the US had instituted a cursus honorum instead of an age requirement for the Presidency?

    My idea is perhaps a requirement of something like 6 years of federal legislative experience combined with a term of state executive experience such as governor, or being given the rank of general (this part would be so Washington could be first president) ? Perhaps an amendment later to allow...
  2. [Pro Wrestling] The Territorial wars of the 80s- from tragedy to triumph

    This is my idea for a pro wrestling timeline. This is the first part, with a fairly simple and tragic POD. I really hope nothing in here is too OOC, but we really don't know a whole lot about how Greg Gagne would be behind the scenes, and Vince is going to have some really crap luck (which to...
  3. WI Champions League mainstays left their leagues over Financial Fair Play rules?

    The POD I'm thinking about was when I think Barcelona and some other clubs considered a Super-League of the top Euro clubs. What I'm thinking would be the case is: -franchise system, no promotion/relegation, teams get invited in. -they would try to continue competing in domestic cups, if...
  4. What if the AWA had Kept Hogan?

    I'm wondering about that one. Considered a timeline for it- it might take forcing Verne out. Who would the WWF have built around instead, and would Memphis have stayed an NWA territory? Two theories I have: The WWF would have built around Savage or Sgt.Slaughter, and Lawler and Memphis...
  5. Possibility of getting the US and Japan on the same side in an alt-WWII?

    Given a POD of Versailles, and with Japan staying militarist (but also pro-American) Bonus points if this leads to an infusion of Japanese culture in the US in the 1920s or 1930s, and/or a "special relationship" between Japan and the US.
  6. WI Gentleman's Agreement never happened

    Between US and Japan, and the US did not limit Japanese immigration (but does limit Chinese) Is this ASB? I know there was pressure, but was there something the Japanese could do to get the immigration to the US? I think that would have huge butterflies if it made Japan-US more natural allies...
  7. Could Slavery of Whites have actually occured in an independent CSA?

    I'm asking because I frequently see that on here, and I haven't really seen any sources that make it look likely. What would be impact of white slavery be if it did happen? Would it be debtors slavery, indentured servitude, or a criminal punishment. I have to assume branding would be part of...
  8. Eastern North Carolina gets nuked in 1961

    http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/sep/20/usaf-atomic-bomb-north-carolina-1961 How would this impact the Cold War and today's national politics- what would the casualty rates have been? That area was not heavily populated, but fallout would have probably reached Wilmington, and perhaps...
  9. Restricting the American Franchise

    What if voting rights were reserved for Military Veterans or those with sufficient education (maybe bachelor's degree from a state pubic school or accredited private school) How would that impact American politics?
  10. Confederate Sports Culture post-independence.

    Assumptions: CSA wins the Civil War, loses West, gets KY via plebicite and Indian Territory. No future wars with the US. The CSA stays economically behind the USA and closer to Mexico, but starts catching up to the US sometime after WWI. Baseball- Baseball was taking hold in the South I...
