While I have concerns about the strength of Mr. Kennedy's statements about Anti-Nazi feelings. I feel as though we have to deal with the scourge to freedom that is National Solcialism. Hitler as proven he can't be trusted and we need to remove him before he becomes even more of problem. I am glad Churchill is running England, even though France capitulated you know he will fight to the bitter end. Did you hear his speech on the wireless last night?
 
Not a fan of Joseph Kennedy, but Taft and Garner are useless.

This reminds me actually, I've always thought writing a TL in which elections are held with actual polls on this forum would be interesting. Go for it, RogueBeaver. :p
 
;)Well, this might or might not be a mini-preview of my next TL (primary focus on Canada), which won't be arriving for another 4 months. ;)
 
You're going to have an issue with a left-leaning site turning the United States into a one-party state, because they vote based on their ideological biases and not on what would make a good story. :rolleyes:

EDIT: Also, Taft/Dewey? Are you mad? They hated each other! That's as likely as LBJ/RFK in 1964...

GRRRRR THE LEFT GRRRR
 
Roosevelt! Roosevelt! Roosevelt!

Why? His policies have dragged us out of the Republican Depression thus far, and he's promising himself to make sure that we're prepared in the event of a war with Hitler. Garner is a turncoat, a reactionary that would, if elected, dismantle everything Roosevelt worked so hard to do. And don't even get me started on Bob Taft. We might as well elect Chuck Lindbergh. :rolleyes:
