2052 Timeline and onwards

[pogo stick]

I think it was obvious my last timeline was a dud, so I'm going to start over.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

President John Dandorth (R-PA) will not run for re-election, because of his age and health problems. The 74 year old President will be known mainly for overturning Presidential term limits.

Jan 2051 : GOP Senator from New Jersey, Giuseppe Boscovich (R-NJ) has announced a run for the Presidency.

Boscovich, was first elected to the U.S Senate back in 2044. Boscovich has a mixed voting record, fiscally far-right, socially liberal.

There are three other potential GOP Contenders :

Governor Bobby Richards (R-IN) 
Former Sec of Defense Diana Robinson (R-TN)
Vice-President Fred Conrad (R-UT)


On the Democratic side, former Governor Kelly Banks (D-WA) is the only announced candidate.


 Feb 2051   Vice-President Fred Conrad (R-UT) has announced he will run for the presidency.

Later in the month, Democratic Senator Kathleen Howards (D-MT) has announced she will run for president.

GOP Primary Polls

Conrad (R-UT) : 34.77%
Boscovich (R-NJ) : 33.87%
Undecided :  31.36%

Democratic Primary Polls

Banks (D-WA) : 29.88%
Howards (D-MT) : 29.03%
Undecided :  41.09%


Vice-President Conrad is expected to have a upper hand, considering how he is a descendant of President John Thune (R-SD), also the fact that he is a very popular Vice-President helps him as well.

PRESIDENT DANDORTH DECLARED DEAD, 5 HOURS AFTER SURGERY.
President Dandorth has died of cancer, it was never diagnosed to Dandorth that he had cancer, by the time the doctors found out it was too late.

Vice-President Fred Conrad (R-UT) has been sworn in as President

This changes everything, Now-President Conrad (R-UT) announced he will run for a full-term but will focus mainly on his duties.


No GOP Candidate has announced that they will drop out, this race is still wide open.

On the Democratic side, the Democrats aired a new ad Giving Dandorth's family their condolences and mourn the death, as does the rest of the nation.

Were term limits abolished in Iran at some point between '09 and '13 or did the American forces kill former president Ahmadinejad for some reason?

Ahmadinejad abolished term limits in a Chavez like way

It's probably a common misconception (especially after recent protests were put down) that Ahmadinejad has something like absolute power in Iran. Only a few weeks ago he was pressured to fire the man he wanted to become vice president. Ahmadinejad has only as much power as the Supreme Leader grants him. And even the current Supreme Leader served only two terms when he was president in the 1980ies.

Yes, that's what always drove me nuts, when people, who want to bomb Iran, don't know anything about this country at all
