I can neither confirm nor deny this statement. In all honesty 1996 is pretty much a bore
Not really

Chief Justice Richard Nixon

Unrelated to this, I cannot believe my wikibox storage thread has over 10,000 views. That's just awesome.

Sounds...exciting.

Such a good kohai.

And Nixon as Chief Justice scares me. Particularly since they'd be deciding Roe v. Wade or a similar case.

I like to imagine he turns out to be some kinds of super liberal on social issues, and quite hard on drugs and crime. Mirroring Rockefeller as President. I also like to think he would try to get the Republican nomination while as Chief Justice (like Chase and Douglas), but never could quite do it.

His own OTL views on abortion are rather...interesting.

Nixon worried that greater access to abortions would foster “permissiveness,” and said that “it breaks the family.” But he also saw a need for abortion in some cases — like interracial pregnancies, he said.

“There are times when an abortion is necessary. I know that. When you have a black and a white,” he told an aide, before adding, “Or a rape.”

But Tricky Dick is smooth and tricky so who knows. But he's wiley enough that it skeeves me out a little.

He was kind of racist...

Yes but his argument is "well abortion is wrong unless the parents are interracial" that's some borderline dixiecrat creativity there.

Nixon was the father of the Southern Strategy. So it's not exactly surprising.

Here's InfoBox in my series "An American Empire":

The bombing of Derrickson High-School in Barrington, Louisianna is widely seen by many as done for alleged US support for pro-democracy movements and groups within the Allied States. President Obama denied any connection with the bombing, stating that "The Allied States has no interest in any further territorial expansion eastwards and that the AS only wanted good relations with the United States".

Oh I can't wait for the radical changes you said Campagnolo would do...

RogueBeaver · Aug 4, 2014

So Campagnolo retires in '94? To the presidency?

Utgard96 · Aug 4, 2014

I'm guessing it's either the flag or something to do with Quebec.
