You're very welcome, and here's two more:
1990s war with Iran
Northern Alliance defeats Taliban in 1997
It's okay, I was actually planning on going in that direction with it anyway to be perfectly honest. I'll take it.
There's kind of no point in him running. The people he'd appeal to are most likely going to support Gingrich, who has already declared.
January 30th, 1995: " The Mexican Stabilization Act" narrowly passes the House of Representatives. In a surprise to everyone, Speaker Cheney said in a Press Conference held shortly after the vote that "while I'm not happy that we have to bail out Mexico, I think we have an obligation to the American people to prevent a wave of illegal immigration to the United States from Mexico and to prevent any economic hardship here as a result of the crisis in Mexico. I hope the United States Senate does the right thing and passes this legislation." One day later, the Speaker was attacked by Conservative Talk Show Host Rush Limbaugh, who called him a "trader" and a "RHINO" who "Sold out less than a month after becoming Speaker."
February 7th, 1995: The United States Senate Passes "The Mexican Stabilization Act." President Clinton signed it into law later that day. The legislation included a $50 Billion bailout, a loan guarantee that Mexico pay back the loan, and at the request of the Congress, the legislation has a disclosure act in which the Mexican Government has to disclose how the bailout money is being spent.

June 1st, 1995: Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole declares himself a candidate for the 1996 Republican nomination for President. In his speech at a rally in his Home state of Kansas, Dole said that "it's time to restore power to the people and Washington needs a President who can give that power to them." A newly released poll had Senator Dole in first place for the Republican nomination with House Majority Leader Newt Gingrich in a close second place. Governor Bill Weld was at a distant third for the increasingly Conservative Republican Party.
But Gingrich has a much lower profile than IOTL, while Kemp is a household name. I'd see him at least consider a run.
