What if Douglas MacArthur decided to run as an Independent candidate for POTUS after Eisenhower wins the Republican nomination?
- Does this take votes away from Ike?
- How does this effect who the Democrats nominate (do they still pick Stevenson)?
- Would President Truman try to undermine MacArthur's candidacy?
- Would MacArthur actually have a chance of winning?
- Would Senator Taft still endorse and campaign for Ike after MacArthur got into the race?
- What else could've happened?
