How about we compromise with Custer/Vance?

How about we see how things play out in 1888, then run Vance/Custer in 1892. Vance dies in 1894, so they each get two years as President.

Nah, there may be better options.  Like Weaver Smiley

Or Vance. Imagine President Zebulon Vance.

Let's see how '88 goes.  What about Weaver/Custer in '92.  I could get behind that and then switch to Bryan/Teller in '96.

I think we can all agree that we're going to have Bryan/Somebody in '96, and Teller seems pretty cool. How about the Whigs merge with the People's Alliance and Destiny parties in '92 so we can sort this all out democratically instead of having two candidates running on the left, a situation which has had negative results for us in the past four elections? I'm not a fan of Weaver, and you're not a fan of Custer, so we probably shouldn't go with that. Perhaps Vance/Bryan in '92, no matter what happens this go-around?

Bryan would be unconstitutional in '92.

Is there an age limit on the Vice-Presidency? Now, it is true that Vance would die soon after Bryan's 34th birthday, but we could just have the Speaker of the House be acting President until Bryan turns 35, just like your series had Douglass be AP until Woodhull turned 35.

I hope that the negative tone the vast amount of my posts on the forum have had lately indicate I'm mainly here when I'm sleep deprived and pissed off because of my schedule. Take that as you wish. Thank God the semester's ending soon, though.

Huh. I thought that was just you being wacky. Sorry.
