2016: Def. various minor parties

So, that whole Mayan calendar ending means the apocalypse thing? Turns out it was legit. As the song goes 'that's great, it starts with an earthquake'-specifically one that happened to be occurring in California while Obama was visiting. Half the state fell into the ocean along with the president. That was just the beginning however. The meteor shower that devastated most of Europe caused a tidal wave that killed Biden. The superflu took down three presidents in the span of seven months. McCarthy was supposed to be a caretaker president retiring in 2015 after the midterms, but when the aliens showed up he couldn't cut it. Holder tried to do the same thing after sending the Martians back to their home planet with a few handy ICBMs and nearly pulled it off, but then most of the new Congress fell victim to the zombie attacks. Holder and Petraeus managed to survive that one, but the Yellowstone eruption just so happened to occur while both were visiting Omaha to encourage the National Guard in their efforts to crush one of the rebel cults. Vilsack ascended to the Oval Office (nominally at least, the actual thing is now shattered into pieces somewhere between the Appalachians and the Marianas Trench) and lasted a decent year before dying in the most boring way possible: a plane crash (OK, OK, technically the plane crashed because the poles reversed but still). Huntsman actually managed to become the first president in five years not to die in office and is currently the only living ex-president. The Powell adminstration promises to rebuild all of the destroyed cities and infrastructure, cure the superflu, crush remaining cults, zombies and aliens and get America going again. Whether that is possible in a nation still being struck by periodic disaster...well, it's an open question.

Presidents of the State of Scotland (Mann and the Western Isles)

1858: John Nicholson

Michael Dwyer's declaration of the independence of Ireland was the end of the bloody Irish revolution and English control over the Island but was only the beginning of a long period of war and instability in the area that followed the collapse of the British Monarchy.

The United Irishmen had been a joint movement between Protestants and Catholics but following the assassination of Dwyer, the Protestant North and Catholic South were divided. Even after the country was reunited, divides between the Protestant minority, who remained the primary landowners, and the Catholic majority would increasingly lead to violence. While many Catholics would become Presidents, they were largely figureheads who were largely controlled by a powerful clique of Protestant businessman and deposed when they tried to carry out their own agendas. It wasn't until the emergence of 'Dagger John' Hughes that a Catholic President actually managed to wrest the power away from his backers, which he demonstrated by claiming Dwyer's old title.

Hughes' downfall came after three failed invasions of Scotland, which had broken free of Irish control in the previous decade and been unstable ever since with it's leadership shared between a small bunch of powerful landowners led by the grand old man Cochrane who maintained dictatorial power well into his 80s and the notorious Earl of Elgin, James Bruce who was known for his weather-vane politics and would, at various times, be a fanatic fighter for Scottish independence and a supporter of no fewer than four different foreign occupiers of Scotland, namely the Irish, English, Danish and French.

The Irish-Scottish war would devastate and weaken both countries and ultimately lead both to Hughes' overthrow and the ill-fated Scottish annexation by the Scandinavian Empire.

Okay, what the fuck happened here, and who would take Bill Schuette and Adam Putnam's places on the next inauguration (Jan. 20, 2021)? Cedric Richmond? Or would the Republicans nominate someone else to take the position (since both the Presidency and the Vice Presidency are vacated)?

Okay, what the fuck happened here, and who would take Bill Schuette and Adam Putnam's places on the next inauguration (Jan. 20, 2021)? Cedric Richmond? Or would the Republicans nominate someone else to take the position (since both the Presidency and the Vice Presidency are vacated)?

The idea is to end the TL with the entire 2020 election going down to a few dozen votes in one or two states, causing massive national protests. Knowing a close election was coming, the Schuette Administration tries to pull a Reichstag. I'd imagine the GOP electors push either their Congressional leadership or a high-end Cabinet members to run in Schuette and Putnam's place.

Now that I think about it I feel like we need a stronger definition on what counts as Current Politics in lists and what does not. In this case, I chose to abstain from currently-prominent politicians. I'm beginning to feel that the Current Politics President List Thread is just a prediction thread.

Out of curiosity, why do some people put the Republicans as blue and the Democrats as red? I just use their official colours.

Out of curiosity, why do some people put the Republicans as blue and the Democrats as red? I just use their official colours.

Idk about others, but I do it to shake things up a bit or maintain it when the "Red, R, Reagan" switch came in the '80s and solidified thanks to a certain hundred chads in Florida. Plus it's fun to see American parties in not the usual colors.

* = assassinated
! = Impeached

NOTES: Robert LaFollette switches parties and wins on a policy racial equality, cooling relations with the USSR and expanding New Deal policies. Gets assassinated by a KKK member over pushing the civil rights act. Outrage spreads and the segregationist back down over the backlash though some do try and fight the civil rights act. Storm Thurmond later falls into obscurity and retired in 1980 in which Jesse Jackson takes that seat. Due to the assassination of LaFollette the south is more progressive in an attempt to distance themselves from the murder. No southern strategy is tried leaving the South to evolve on racial issues. This is also a Turning point for liberal Ronald Reagan ditching his social conservatism for liberalism. Furthermore he already viewed the Goldwater right as hypocrites and lunatics. With the success of the Great Society Reagan is pushed even further left winning the Californian Governors race in 1974 and re-elected in 1978. Rod Blagojevich is impeached for doing a play to win scheme during the Illinois Democratic senate Primary getting himself charged with bribery.

The Order of the Illuminated Seers is a body dedicated to the discovery of occult knowledge and keeping it out of the hands of those who might abuse it. The Order was founded by the alchemist Nicholas Flamel, the discoverer of the Philosopher's Stone. Flamel structured the group so that no man within the Order may know all of the hidden knowledge possessed by adepts-not even himself. Over the centuries, the Order has integrated an array of practices and beliefs into its midst from the traditional to the new. Masters of Hermetics rub shoulders with Wiccans, shamans get into pissing contests with Thelemites and Theosophists clash with chaos magic practitioners. The various arts each have their own skill in allowing adepts to attain spiritual awakening, as well as combat outer threats.

The Order has all the traits one would expect of a secret society that manipulates the world for their own gain, but it wields surprisingly little power politically speaking. It has been weakened by periodic threats to its very existence (from the Inquisition's fires to the Satanic panic), missteps by the group itself (Hubbard's time as a leader is looked on as embarrassing by those who remember it) and feuds within the group over what the agenda ought to be (there was a schism in the 1920's as a result of the rise of fascism most notably and it took a good 50 years to track down the last of the pro-Nazi occultists ). Plus a large chunk of the group views world affairs as too mundane and boring for masters of the spiritual arts. However, that may change under Boucher's leadership. Flamel has finally died at the ripe old age of 690 leaving the Order's traditionalist weakened. The world is ripe for the birth of a new aeon and she has the perfect idea about who might be the man best fit to usher it in...

*Assassinated

Barack Obama is assassinated early into his term, with Biden going down with him. Pelosi is forced into the position, and while she initially vowed to be a caretaker president as the nation healed from the trauma of the only black president being killed so early into his term, political pressure led to it just not working out that way. Gingrich wins in a landslide, but proves underwhelming as president, being seen as a second W. Bush. Thus, 2016 is a repeat of 2008, sweeping the unconventional Sanders into office. It is currently unclear if this will forgive the sin of Obama's murder, or if the pendulum will continue to swing and the political turmoil will continue.

I might make this a full timeline? Honestly I'd probably want to revise it first.
