Inspired by someone's post in my other thread. Had Harold Stassen been the Republican nominee in 1948, would he have possibly beaten President Harry S. Truman in the general election? So I've come up with the following questions:
1) Do you think the stunning upset in OTL was more a result of the brilliant campaign of President Truman, or the poorly-run campaign of Dewey?
2) Is it more likely or less likely that Stassen could have beaten Truman?
3) How would his presidency turn out, and would he have possibly won a second term in 1952?
Or alternatively, answer these questions:
So we probably have PotUS Stassen in 1948. How will he handle the outbreak of the Korean War? Would Stassen consider nukes in Korea? And what about the idea of banning the communist party, as Stassen proposed to do?
