Was thinking of writing a Timeline about this, but will leave it open for the moment.

As the title says. What would be the effects of George Washington taking a third term? This includes cabinet positions, and bills/acts of congress such as the Alien and Sedition acts - would he actually agree with such an act, or would he perhaps go with the more naturalized opinion that the Republicans under Jefferson and Madison preferred?

Would he dismiss/replace John Adams from the VP position? Perhaps putting Jefferson in his place (although doubtful).

In hindsight, would other Presidents seek third terms?
