So far our 2 wartime presidents are leading- Bill Clinton and Sarah Eckert. I bet TTL's Bill feels vindicated

Anton Chekov York gets my vote - the hero America deserves...but not the one it needs right now...

York is one of the most complete and colorful characters in TTL, with his whole semi redemption story during the Post Atomic Horror and all.

I still don't know. It seems to me that another shoe may still drop about him. For example did he play any role as president in the rise of the ORE ? It happened 3 years after he was out of office but did he have any involvement ...

And now Truman is in the lead. Remember he's the guy that got the US deeply involved in what became the Brush Wars. The disastrous consequences of which essentially lead to Bill Clinton's hands being tied at the beginning of the Eugenics War. But I'm sure his domestic policy was still better than the alternative

 

[JSmith]

Challenge-Ok - Try and describe each president with one sentence or less ( TL specific of course )

 

[JSmith]

So are people blaming Mike Huckabee and Jeb Bush for that whole Sanctuary District thing

 

[Cylon_Number_14]

I remember noticing this before... but two of the last Vice Presidents were exceptionally young when elected unless the alternate versions of them were born 5 or so years early. Malia Obama (b. 1998) would be 38 on Election Day 2036 and Knox Jolie-Pitt (b. 2008) only 36 in 2044!

Just goes to show that even 2053's WW3 is really not so many years down the road by some measures ; "realistically", it'd be quite possible to never have a Prez or Veep born in the 21st Century before the nuclear exchange!

Very true but I think that Knox Jolie Pitt (2008) and Sarah Susan Eckert (2001) are the only ones confirmed. I guess it would make sense that Lee- Mitchell-Ryan was as well ? Jacqueline Schwarzenegger- Kennedy is not a real child or Arnold and Maria but I imagine her birth was in the 1990's like their OTL children.

Anyone want to cobble together the opposing candidates?

Who likes Mike?

[JSmith]

So 884 views and 35 votes-the Founders would be so disappointed- not them

 

[JSmith]

Its 2014 and Mike Huckabee is President. Who do you think will challenge him in 2014? Will he keep Luis Fortuno on the ticket?

 

[JSmith]

40 is a nice even number but I bet there are more votes to be had

 

[JSmith]

So in a head to head- so far- Jacqueline Schwarzenegger- Kennedy is beating Sarah Susan Eckert. How would history have unfolded differently with a second Schwarzenegger- Kennedy term ?
