  1. WI: 2000 election goes to the House, Bush elected President, Lieberman as VP

    You might want to check this out, my first thread here that took off by someone 😀 https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/sen-lieberman-is-sen-palpatine.60109/
  2. WI: Max Cleland voted for the Homeland Security Act

    Rove would have found another reason to accuse Cleland of a lack of patriotism

  4. Gerald Ford assassinated in 1975. What comes after?

    Rockefeller becomes president. I sincerely doubt Rocky would run in 76 at that point. Reagan doesn't have a clear path, but ends up winning the nomination. Carter win on the other side pretty much the same as OTL. Either one that wins gets caught in the malaise of our Carter years and loses in...
  5. Political and cultural effects of a worse 1993 WTC bombing

    Considering the state of Afghanistan in the mid 90s, the Taliban or something similar is bound to form. Without al Qaeda though, I sincerely doubt the rest of the world pays attention other than useless sanctions. Sudan didn't start trying to realign with the west until 1994. Examples being...
  6. Political and cultural effects of a worse 1993 WTC bombing

    Was thinking about this myself. Taking the idea of a vertical collapse (I know Yousef was hoping for the north tower to collapse on the south, but it doesn't seem likely) that kills at least 10,000, you would not see the same reaction by the Clinton administration. IOTL, because the attack was...
  7. Soviet Manned Lunar Landing happens a month after Apollo 11?

    Would having the Soviets discover water ice on their first mission to the moon provide enough impetus to starting the space race back up?
  8. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I can see Richard Schweiker winning in 1984, running on Reagan's coattails like Bush did in OTL. And just like Bush, losing the following election to a "New Democrat". Possibly Gary Hart, but I think Al Gore is more likely. Whoever it is, they will be in their second term when the next season...
  9. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History

    Within the realm of a successful Reform Party, Trump would be running in 2000, 2004 at the latest, imho.
  10. The Disputed Election of 1976

    In an election where its 270 to 268 i really doubt you would have a faithless elector. FEs have only happened when nothing was riding on it. The amount of pressure to toe the line would be great. HOWEVER, in a situation where its that close, you MAY see a lot of pressure for a few to switch...
  11. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History

    I actually have to humbly disagree. Having Perot pivot to party building instead of just running for president himself makes this the most realistic way possible that a third party could actually succeed. IOTL that was the downfall of the Reform Party; it was too focused on the man instead of...
  12. The midterm election of 2006- three GOP scandals

    It would be interesting having him run for president like Obama did in 2008. Or a VP nomination.
  13. The midterm election of 2006- three GOP scandals

    Considering that he only lost by 2.7%, can Harold Ford win in these circumstances?
  14. The midterm election of 2006- three GOP scandals

    Keep in mind, this would be accusations of the sitting Speaker of the House
  15. The midterm election of 2006- three GOP scandals

    So, I've always wondered how bad the 2006 midterm elections could have been for the GOP. As it actually happened, in the house they lost 27 seats and in the senate they lost 6, losing control of both for the first time since 1994. Its been argued that the Mark Foley congressional page scandal...
  16. Al Gore 2008

    First time posting in years, but to give Gore the most plausible chance in 2008, I think the best way would be to have him lose Florida in 2000 by JUST a little more. Just enough for him to concede the election, say the next morning, even though he wins the PV. By choosing to do that he would...
  17. 1st Gulf War.....with WMD

    Considering that he already was trying to provoke Israel, what is the possibility of arming SCUDs with biological or chemical? i know that was a fear already, but it never happened
  18. Presidential Election TL | 1988

    Absolutely love the timeline, didn't the democrats divide the delegates by proportion though?
  19. Slightly different 22d Amendment

    Two other altered 22nd amendments: 1. It is declared null and void during an actual state of war(that was declared by congress, not just a "military action" that presidents seem to love since wwii). It comes back in effect as soon as a peace treaty or a declaration by congress stating so (say...
