Nearly four years have passed since the unexpected election of George Clinton. In opposition to the "Virginian establishment", news of electors supporting George Clinton spread across the fruited plain and both Federalist and Republican electors jumped in line. With moderate Federalists unenthusiastic about King and unwilling to support Jefferson's protege, Clinton despite his partisanship was a natural choice. The same went for Northern Republicans who were tired of the party's domination from the South and considered Clinton, not Jefferson, the party's founding father. With worries about the Federalists' support for a large Navy and fears of Madison's "antagonism" towards Great Britain, anti-war votes as well went for Clinton and the New York Governor even appeared on a few ballots where popular vote determined the placement of electors.

Now Clinton reigns as President, an ambition he's held since since the founding days of the Republic and his close loss to Jay. Clinton's policies have upset militarists on both sides. "Jeffersonians" seem to be aching for war with their hated enemy Great Britain while Federalists opposed Clinton's devastating cuts to the Navy. In domestic policy, Clinton has kept largely in line with the Republican platform but has decided to allow for the Bank to continue and has signed some bills in favor of internal improvements. A seasoned political operator, Clinton has worked to build a political base, within and without both parties, drawing in his formerly hated Federalists and Northern Republicans. This independent "Fusion" party has a small caucus as well as allies on both sides such as Bradley and Adams. Now, die-hard Clinton supporters are looking to re-nominate him, though some suggest a new face may be necessary. Both parties meanwhile are looking to nominate a man to take down Clinton, though there are as well draft movements within to nominate the independent President.

Whom do you choose? Three days. Here's hopin' for lots of votes.

Now this does leave me in an interesting predicament. What should I do? Have the Republicans nominate Monroe by saying he pooled his votes with other contenders? Have folks vote on just the Vice President? Have Clinton, followed by "Federalist electors for King" and "Republican electors for Madison"? I could get really creative with this one. There'll definitely be more than one ticket, even if it differs only in Vice Presidential selection.

I like the idea of just choosing the vice president now, but whatever you want to do in the end.
