I would like to see a timeline that has Henry Cabot Lodge actually pursuing the presidency in 1964, leading to him being nominated over Goldwater, and RFK being nominated for vice president as Johnson feels forced to after the nomination of a moderate Republican. This is a possible 1964 election I came up with,

Now I'm no expert on the time period, so I don't know where to go from here, which is why I thought it would be best to make a collaborative timeline where people can post their own ideas and such. I'm especially intrigued about the 1968 election and how Kennedy over Humphrey will change policy making. Also the effects of a Republican party not 'tainted' by Goldwater and how Wallace's '68 campaign will change from this scenario.

Thank you :D
