Eric Blair, better known by his pen-name George Orwell, is amongst my favourite historical writers & probably my favourite writer of all time. He was a committed democratic socialist, highly critical of Stalinism whilst a had a more complex relationship with British imperialism.

Your challenge is to create the situation that allows Blair to be elected to the highest office in the land, with a PoD no earlier than 1923. How would it be done & what would be likely impact of history losing one of its most iconic authors to the murky world of politics?
