In this scenario Sherman doesn't take Atlanta until after the election and Mac wins. However the South is in too poor a shape to actually win it and Mac is a War Democrat. The South holds out a little longer but still loses in Sept of 1865 as it is in too poor a shape for even Little Mac to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

1) Will Mac still claim credit for winning the war even though it is all but lost when he takes over? :rolleyes: This should be an easy one so what would it take for Mac not to take credit?

2) What happens to the slaves outside those in the Army as even Mac said even before Antietam that any slave that served the US Army in any way would be under permanent US military protection?

3) How is reconstruction different?

4) Would he buy Alaska?
