I once made a wikibox that depicted the United States as basically, China from 1911 to 1949. This is that.
Workers Republic of America
From 1949 to 1968
All parties are participants in the United Front.
[1] The perennial Socialist candidate during the 30s and 40s.
[2] Vice President of the United States in OTL from 1937 to 1945. Replaced Cactus Jack, was replaced by Harry Truman. In this case, he's Thomas' Zhou Enlai... kinda.
[3] One of America's more famous examples of a successful Socialist politician, in this TL, he's the President of the new-version of the Senate, the Supreme Council (see: Supreme Soviet)
[4] One of the Socialist Party's many candidates for office in the 1950s, Friedman IOTL is the Speaker of the Assembly (the House's new equivalent)
[5] High profile African-American guy who has lengthy experience in traveling the world. Marshall nearly got this office, but opted to be the Secretary of Defense instead.
[6] Walter Reuther didn't stray away from Communism and Socialism in this timeline, with the United States being in a perpetual state of strife after the Triangle Shirtwaist Revolution, and the Warlord Era. After the victory of Norman Thomas' American Soviet Republic over Huey Long and Douglas MacArthur's Nationalists in 1949, he became the leader of the national economic ministry.
[7] Marshall proved his gumption during the Autumn Uprising and the Long March, and is pretty much the Zhu De to Thomas' Mao. However, like Wallace, he is not a communist; just a supporter of the new regime over the reactionary Nationalist regime.
[8] Frank P. Walsh was a high-profile labour lawyer during the 1930s, and was later accused of being a Communist during the McCarthyite era. In this timeline, he is a commie.
[9] Harold L. Ickes, IOTL's Secretary of the Interior from 1933 to 1946, obviously didn't have that job at first. Ickes rose to prominence in the state of Illinois during the Revolution of 1911, and initially served as a delegate to the First Congress of the Newark Government in 1912, and later served as a Senator from 1912 to 1916. In 1916, he grew disgruntled at the Newark Government's refusal to consider reforms, and the fracturing of the Northern Territories under the Franklin Roosevelt's Republic of New York ("Albany Clique"), and Gifford Pinchot's "Pennsylvania Military Government". In 1925, he formally defected to the Nationalist regime, and remained with them until 1929, when he defected to the side of the Communist Party of the United States and their allies, and has served the revolution since. His political party is a rather small one, but they make a large noise in favor of racial unity. Norman Thomas had pledged that one of the core tenets of the revolution is to unite the races.
[10] Yes. That Hubert Humphrey. The same one that got his ass beat by Nixon.
[11] Charles Wilson is a high-profile engineer. He worked in various electrical workshops before the Revolution, and had largely backed the Nationalist regime until the early 40s. Having served as the CEO of American Motor Company (built from the ruins of the collapsed Detroit corporations / government after the fall of Ford's secessionist movement) until 1942. He was purged from the Nationalist regime in 1942, and defected to the leftists. He is the founding member of the National Republican Party, a replacement for the old party of Lincoln and Roosevelt. His position in the government is largely to monitor interstate commerce, and help facilitate it. He is the architect of the National Highway System.
[12] A female Communist, and one of the rare members of the cabinet. Elizabeth Flynn is a major driving force in the Wobblies, but her affiliation has made the state leadership nervous, as the IWW often acts outside the parameters of the Republic's laws.
[13] Walker Percy is a poet, philosopher, and the leading Secretary of Health; by the way, this office and the Surgeon General are now one-and-the-same. His party is one of those "rare ones" to appear in the cabinet. The Christian Socialist Party adheres to what they see as "the way of Christ" in sharing wealth, health and happiness with thy neighbor.
[14] Catherine Bauer Wurster during the Second Civil War, and the Warlord Era, served the Pennsylvania Military Government in the stead as the Minister of Urban Planning, showing her extensive knowledge of engineering. In 1928, when the Nationalists shattered the Newark Government and the Pennsylvania Military Government, Wurster defected to the Cincinnati Soviet, and later, joined the Long March. Upon the victory of the Revolution, she became the leading minister of Housing and Urban Planning. She has closely collaborated with with Secretary Wilson on the National Highway System.
[15] Arthur Morgan was a civil engineer in Ohio during the Warlord Era, and defected to the Cincinnati Soviet and the Long March around the same time as Wurster did. Morgan's primary responsibilities during the Long March was to create numerous improvements for the Soviets and the people who lived in the territory controlled by the Communist Party and their allies. After the war, he was elevated to the office dominating national energy and electrification plans; he has created a lengthy plan to build a number of dams and electrical generators in Tennessee.
[16] John Scopes, during the 1920s, was nearly put to death by the radically reactionary government of the State of Tennessee for teaching evolution. Forced to flee, he defected to the Memphis Soviet, and lead the revolution against the Tennessee government, but joined the Long March. He has reformed and revamped the national education system, and remembered fondly for it; and is often called the Father of Modern Education.
[17] Once the enemy of the Revolution, Eisenhower reconciled himself with the new regime, and has taken over the affairs of the National Veterans association, the NCV. He is considered a cabinet-level minister, even if the NCV is not officially under government purvey. Before 1949, Eisenhower was the leading military figure in the Nationalist regime, under Huey Long and Douglas MacArthur. Eisenhower was a major commander during the Northern Expedition, certainly outshining Dougie and Huey; but soon was maneuvered out of positions of power. He betrayed the Nationalist regime to "unite America".
