    If I had a nickel for every time a US veteran and burn victim moved to Nevada after failing to win public office in a former Confederate state, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice. ( Sam_Brown_(military), Charles_Woods_(politician) )

    Great job with this! I can't recall, it's been nearly 3 years since I finished writing it, lol! Last thing I think I mentioned was Micro-Laserdisc - also known as MLDs, if I remember correctly. Thank you very much for pointing this out to me. I went back and revised it so he was severely...

    WI: Dr. Seuss in the White House (A Collaborative(?) Scenario)

    Seuss was born in 1904, so his last chance for the presidency would be 1976, when he's 72. Honestly, I feel like the only way to get a Jewish-American President by that time would be if the president before him was someone accused of being anti-Semitic or of being okay with being supported by...

    That’s a good question. IOTL, the 4 members of CCR were already together by the time this TL starts to really impact things (c. 1960) and the 4 originally went by the name Blue Velvet until 1964, when “the band signed with Fantasy Records, which, without the band's knowledge or approval, changed...

    Given his polling within the GOP, Trump could become the first non-incumbent (neither POTUS nor VP) to win every single contest in a Presidential primary season. Only Smith’28, Roosevelt’32, Goldwater’64, Nixon’68, Reagan’80, Dole’96, Bush’00, and Kerry’04 have gotten close to that feat, with...

    Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VII (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    I'm not that tech-savvy, so I literally scrolled through every single page of the thread while keeping open a word doc where I copy and pasted the links to posts with a high number of likes (40+ ended up being the cutoff because of how many there were) and then ranked/organized them there.
