New Oral History Collaborative TL:Vote!

Which TL should we pick?


  • Total voters
    23
  • Poll closed .
Alright, we've talked about it, and so far the threee most popular ideas in the first thread are...

Nixon Wins in '60: Sounds like the PoD would be him giving a better preformance in the debates, possibly not getting the flu. We can decide that latter though. This one also has the advantage of having an Alternate Space Race, which was another idea thrown around.

Ford Wins in '76: PoD wasn't really mentioned, though I suggested Reagan staying out. Not sure that alone would work though.

Perot Wins in '92: This one was also popular, but I have no idea how we could actually have him win the Presidency. Seems like a tough sell, but I guess it's possible.


I was thinking all of them would go up until 2012. Poll to come.

EDIT- Poll is up. Will close in two days so don't delay, vote now!
 
The Perot POD is the most difficult plus the end result is a president Perot who is frustrated. Because hecan't fire Congress. it was a tough choice but. I think you get more buttterflies with Nixon then with Ford.
 
Alright, the poll has closed now, and I think it's safe to say the Nixon Wins in '60 TL has the majority of the support. However, to the people who voted otherwise, feel free to still join in.

As for a title, I was thinking For the Future, after Nixon's '60 campaign slogan. Anyone have a problem with that or a better title? :p

At any rate, I'll probably post the TL Thread later today. Right now I need to get some sleep, but you guys should feel to suggest any more ideas you have.

Sounds good!
 
Nixon sounds very good - very rich geopolitical environment, interesting and ambiguous character, lots of challenges at home and abroad.

How do you plan to organize the collaborative writing?
