Thanks, X. Now I'm regretting voting for Underwood.

In fairness, 1912 isn't exactly shaping up to be a great year to be a Libertarian in Atlamerica Tongue  My guess is you'll have to make a lesser of four evils vote.  For me though, Roosevelt will probably be the only major candidate I really don't like.

It's going to be La Follette or Underwood. Probably the latter if Clark is the VP (I kinda like him).

Yay

Always like a candidate described as Jeffersonian.

Other than the woman's suffrage part, which I am sure was part of the time.

In fairness, it was because he thought it'd reduce the South's influence in Congress, not because he hated women or anything.

This and I also question the judgement of an article that refers to the KKK as an "attempt at reform"

You mean because Southern women wouldn't vote anyway?  Interesting.  I assumed had something to do with being anti-prohibition.

That really shouldn't be an issue in this timeline. We voted Victoria Woodhull to the Presidency, for crying out loud.
