I'm not sure how workable this is, but basically what happens if Gary Hart and not former Vice President Walter Mondale is the Democratic nominee in 1984? Now once the economy recovered I think Reagan's reelection was essentially guaranteed. But Hart can either do better or worse than Mondale did. And of course there would probably be significant butterflies from this into 1988.

Who does Hart choose as his running mate?

More generally what does the election look like?

What happens to Mondale?
