I apologize if this has been done, but I pose the above question. If Benedict Arnold didn't betray the American cause and go over to the British, what kind of future does he have in post-Revolution America? I seem to remember that he wasn't the most politically adroit individual, but he was kind of screwed over by the Continental Congress when it came to being promoted. He was admired by the troops (American) he commanded, and he seems to have had the respect of George Washington. So would he go onto serve Washington in the cabinet, or maybe run for office himself? Or does he return to being a private citizen?
