I don't think Dent was very happy about Carter, considering that his primary opponent was Carl Sanders and Carter ran to Sanders' right, with some segregationist tones.

You realize that Agnew was very pro-civil rights, don't you?

Please, don't start it here.

And no, I believe Dallas produced that for Kal in another thread (I think Americana 3, though I'm not sure).

Yep.

I like Inouye's selection as VP, even though it probably mean his senatorial career is probably over.

I never noticed that this timeline is in a similar universe of Dalasfan Timeline. Pretty Nice Indeed, Cathcon!

Thanks! Smiley We, along with Mechaman and other writers, are working in similar universes with several of the same fictional characters.

Dent: Having been a friend and ally to Brewer before his presidency, and serving as his Secretary of State, Dent stood by the incumbent and fellow Alabaman despite his friendship with McGovern.

While Cathcon got carte blanche as an author, there's the way I'd see it:

1. A sitting Secretary of State wouldn't campaign against his superior
2. State politics concerns (working alliance to keep Wallace types from retaking the party)
3. Even if Dent doesn't view Brewer as particulary good President (a big if since I don't know that Smiley ), there's a party unity issue

Oldies, racism doesn't necessarily have to be open. In case you didn't know, there's a thing called "coded racism".

If you really don't have anything of substance to say, please stop spamming Cathcon's thread. He's working hard on his story and deserved some real feedback.

I wonder what is Brewer going to do on retirement, beside collecting his pension and getting aroused by being called "Mistah President" Tongue

I think it's cool that you're giving much more prominent role to politicians that were rarely or never present in our what-if scenarios. I honestly can't recall any timeline where Linwood Holton or Gordon Humphrey reached the top.

Btw, Holton's been always an interesting figure to me, a pre-Goldwater Southern Republican who was highly sceptical of former Democrats crossing the party line.

You-Know-Who would have probably shot himself already, rather than have a boring retirement.
