What if Herbert Hoover and his wife were killed during the Boxer Rebellion? How would this have affected American politics as a whole, with a POD coming from 1901?
Im not sure about that, this could be a pretty big POD and who knows what a presidency under Lowden would look like.Whoever gets elected will probably just end as taking Hoover's place in history. As the transitional president to Franklin Roosevelt
This might also change the GOP nomination in 1920 too when Hoover had been a contender.
He also did the relief effort for the 1927 Mississippi flood. Hoover not dying will have a large impact on the way we handle natural disasters and war refugees.
