Could anyone else have done a New Deal in the 1930s? Or was FDR truly special as the only person with the vision to succeed economically?
1st might be unholy alliance? Don't know about the 2nd one.Huey Long? Though his version of a New Deal would probably be even more far reaching than FDR’s. But that brings me to another question: Do we know what Long’s stance on foreign policy might have been? Did he ever give any statements in this regard? He doesn’t strike me as a liberal internationalist, but I also don’t think he would’ve been an isolationist like Taft.
On another topic, I’m looking for two TLs. I don’t remember what they were called, but one had the interesting concept of an Anglo-German alliance in WW2 against a Franco-Soviet alliance, while the other had a Japanese-American war in the 1950s. Does anyone know what TLs I’m talking about? It’s been years since I’ve read them, so I suspect they are quite old.

Cheaper indeed at $6.56 a kg, and easier to source. Any fake would eventually be found out.Gilded copper is the wrong density, that's just lazy and cheap.
The German economy... couldn't. It eventually caved in and this war exhaustion was one reason why Germany lost WWI.How come the German and AH economies (WW1) were able to handle the war but the Brits and French couldn't survive with USA?
