I've been contemplating working on a TL with a more liberal democratic republican America. That by the 20th century is a deeply rooted democratic socialist republic. I'm looking at the Revolution bringing the poor farmers and slaves closer together. That will eventually form a cohesive force in the Second American Revolution of the 1840's with the poor immigrant workers of the Northeast. While I was thinking of turning the AR into this worker's revolution. I believe that a more liberal and democratic republic could bring this about over time. I assume that the landed aristocracy of OTL revolution would still assume a dominant role in federalizing. But I would like the Democratic-Republicans to take a stronger role in the formative years. With the Federalists dominating later vice-versa to OTL if you will. Could this create the situation and conflicts I want or do I need to make some changes. Essentially we have a bloodier more widespread Revolution with a deeper cohesion among the Revolutionists. That leads to the Democratic-Republicans taking power of the government post-Revolution. Eventually the Federalists seize power disenfranchising people as OTL at a much faster and persistent rate. Which leads to worker's revolution in the 1840's lead by radical socialist and abolitionist forces throughout society.
