History In the Making: Presidents Obama, Bush, Clinton, Carter and Stephens, along with Vice President George H.W. Bush, at the Bush Library opening, 15 years before Stephens' election.
 
President Sanders (AIP-KY) meets future President Vincent D. Furnier (R-MI).
Sanders was originally George Wallace's Vice President, however after the former's death in a suicide bombing, the Colonel assumed the office. Conspiracy theorists are still debating whether it was the Black Panthers, the Weather Underground or the Nation of Islam that killed President Wallace.

So Reagan or who's VP? Never elected president right?

Precisely. This timeline's Presidencies:

40. Reagan/G.H.W. Bush (1981-1988)
41. Cuomo/Clinton (1988-1996) *POD: Cuomo enters the race following Gary Hart's Monkey Business, wins the Democratic nomination, and beats the squabbling Bush/Dole ticket
42. Clinton/Kerrey (1996-2000)

43. G.W. Bush/Rumsfeld (2000-2008)
44. Obama/Kaine (2008-2016)
45. Rubio/Paul (2016-2020)
46. Booker/Julian Castro (2020-2028)
47. Stephens/McHenry (2028-2036)

Interesting. Also is the terms beginning and ending in OTL election years intentional?
 
Not sure how plausible this is, but I'll give it the good old try!

Former President George Hunt (1917-1925 D-AZ) and President Franklin Roosevelt (1937-1946 D-NY): The second vice-President to Woodrow Wilson had served only 44 days as Vice-President before Wilson tragically passed away due to a stroke. As an unexpected successor to Wilson, Hunt followed up with many of Wilson's ideals, finishing WWI in 1918, he tapped many important Democrats and Republicans in Congress to secure entry to the League of Nations (via ratifying the Treaty of Versailles), even contacting former President's Theodore Roosevelt and William Taft for support, and personally meeting with important Republican's on the issue, such as

He got a watered down version in 1919 that removed Article X among other things to placate Senators with Irish and German voting blocs. Come 1920 Hunt would choose James M. Cox as his running mate. With the passage of the 19th Amendment, (and Hunt's past as Arizona Constitutional Convention President who supported women's suffrage), a decent end to the First World War, him and Cox became the first Democrat ticket to win 3 elections since Martin Van Buren in 1836. By 1928 he would lose much favor with his party, especially in the denouncement of the KKK and of black voter suppression in the South. Rather than risk splitting the Democratic Party, Hunt retired to Arizona, where he would meet with fellow Bryanite and former assistant-Secretary of the Navy Franklin Roosevelt. The 1924 convention was a mess, taking 100 ballots to reach the compromise ticket of William Gibbs McAdoo and John Nance Garner, who would go on to be landslided by WWI Humanitarian Herbert Hoover and Calvin Coolridge.

FDR would go on to be elected in 1936 after the Fast Depression started in 1934. President Roosevelt would model much of his New Deal after both Wilson and Hunt, becoming another Democratic President to die during wartime, this time passing the torch to former Louisiana Governor and Senator Huey Long in 1946

President's:
Woodrow Wilson (1912-1917)
George Hunt (1917-1925)
Herbert Hoover (1925-1933)
Calvin Coolidge (1933-1937)
Franklin Roosevelt (1937-1946)
Huey Long (1946-)

(I've always like George Hunt, and that picture was something I felt I had to use in this situation.)

Ted Kennedy 1973-1981

George McGovern 1981-1989

(POD no Chappaquiddick incident + no Wallace shooting)

By the time of the DNC, there convention became a three-way race between McGovern, Humphrey and Wallace. After it became clear he would to win the nomination, Wallace launched his own independent campaign. Faced with this dilemma, the convention became deadlocked. Eventually the Anti McGovern forces were able to convince ted Kennedy to join the ticket, and George McGovern to be his V.P

Nope. I'm just more used to counting administrations in terms of elections, needed to count off the "15 years" part of the caption, and forgot to correct at the end. Those should all be shifted by one year, except 1981.
