Bernie Sanders would be out of a job, for one.


On specific issues:

Abortion: I believe that abortion should be banned in all cases except when the mother's life is in danger. I suppose this would make the left support banning abortion in all cases except rape, incest, and when the mother's life is in danger, and the right to support banning abortions in all cases.

Euthanasia: Also banned

Gay marriage: Pretty much the same as in real life

Healthcare: Obamacare would be left-wing, total privatization would be right-wing

Economics: Bill Clinton on the left, people like the Pauls on the right

Welfare: Food stamps on the left, nothing on the right

Death penalty: Would be abolished, I suppose


Socialism would be as despised as Nazism is in real life.


Democrats would be Blue Dogs, establishment Republicans would be centrist, and the Tea Party would be center-right. The Libertarian Party probably also gets a pretty big boost.

Maybe something like this for a Presidents list starting in 1968:

1969-1977: Ronald W. Reagan (Republican)
1968: def. Hubert Humphrey (Democratic), George Wallace (American Independent)
1972: def. George Wallace (Democratic)

1977-1981: Gerald Ford (Republican)
1976: def. Edward M. Kennedy (Democratic)
1981-1989: Zell Miller (Democratic)
1980: def. Gerald Ford (Republican)
1984: def. Edward Brooke (Republican)

1989-1997: Jack Kemp (Republican)
1988: def. Larry McDonald (Democratic)
1992: def. Bill Clinton (Democratic)

1997-2005: Newt Gingrich (Republican)
1996: def. John Gregg (Democratic)
2000: def. Rick Perry (Democratic)

2005-2013: Richard Shelby (Democratic)
2004: def. Lincoln Chafee (Republican)
2008: def. Hillary Rodham (Republican)

2013-        : Colin Powell (Republican)
2012: def. Alan Keyes (Democratic/Constitution), Rand Paul (Liberal)

The Democrats are collapsing, with many of their socially liberal members abandoning the sinking, increasingly far-right ship for the new, libertarian-leaning Liberal Party.
