Suppose somehow accurate information about FDR's dangerously poor health came out in October 1940.
Might Wendal Wilkie have won?
My guess is that his international policy would have been very similar to OTL- anyone disagree?
There are a few questions about long term impact?
1) Who would be his sec of state, in otl not only did Wilkie die in 1944 but his vp nomination died before what would have been the end of his term?
2) What would his attitude have been on Civil Rights for African Americans, in otl in theory FDR had fair employment but he also had segregated armed forces.
3) What would be the imact on the two main parties? any chance of their swapping places again?
