Say this guy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Wasicsko doesn't off himself but instead becomes a rising star in the Democratic Party. He runs for congress in Westchester County and then the senate in 98 defeating D'Amato. He gains a lot of support for having taken unpopular positions that risked his political career and in the 2000s becomes a hero of the netroots for vocally criticizing the Iraq War. In 2008 he enters the Democratic primaries initially a dark horse against Obama and his fellow New York senator Clinton, however he has strong grassroots support and surprisingly is able to compete with Obama among African-American voters. Eventually he pulls off an upset and gets the Democratic nomination. What does the 2008 election look like and who would his and McCain's running mates be? Discuss with maps

Killed on  a hill overlooking his father's grave? Sh#t's poetic.

So basically, McCain against a younger, more successful Mike Gravel?

thats what I was thinking initially but on second thought a hardcore anti war civil libertarian probably isn't the best political profile for a New York area former cop.

It sounds like a poet murdered him and made an attempt to make it look like suicide. It's very suspicious when there's no note.
