President Blaine

It all depends if Blaine can govern effectively...something I doubt for despite his views on Civil Rights, Blaine was known to be fairly corrupt and immoral, a reason why many thought the GOP's chances were particularly weak that year.

What makes things really interesting is what might occur to the Democrat party if the "Bourbon Democrats" don't take over. Without the influence of Grover Cleveland's presidency, it's quite possible that they'll be taken over completely by the Populists and Free Silver supporters.

However without Cleveland's appointments to the Supreme Court and positing continued GOP control over the Whitehouse, the supreme court decision of Homer vs. Plessy might go the other way thus removing official segregation from American History.
