Hello and welcome to a brand new collaborative timeline! I'm glad to see that these kinds of timelines have picked up in popularity since I last made one.
Though, to make sure that this timeline can become successful and fun for it participants, I'll need to implement some rules.
The Rules
1. Like in A Kindler Gentler Nation Continued, all posts need to be written like this:
[Month] [Day], [Year]: Thing that happened. Thing that happened. Thing that happened.
2. Make things plausible. I or any other experienced contributor reserve the right to veto a post if it isn't plausible or doesn't make sense for the timeline.
3. Be respectful and supportive of others and their ideas, even if you don't like them. And, if you don't then just tell them why.
4. Please, don't skip too far ahead. It's best if we just keep all of our ideas in one time period, so not to rush too far ahead.
Other than that, have fun and enjoy! I hope that you all participate!

February 15, 1933 (POD): Italian immigrant Giuseppe Zangara assassinates President-Elect Franklin D. Roosevelt. Chicago Mayor Anton Cermack, who was standing next to Roosevelt, is unharmed. Zangara is quickly tackled by members of the crowd and later apprehended by the police. Vice President-Elect John Nance Garner is now next in line for the presidency and is scheduled to be inaugurated on March 4, 1933.
