42. Bill Clinton (D-AR): 1993-1998
43. Al Gore (D-TN): 1998-2005

44. George W. Bush (R-TX): 2005-2009
45. Barack Obama (D-IL): 2009-2011
46. Evan Bayh (D-IN): 2011-present


42. Clinton was elected in 1992 with Al Gore as his VP. His term included tax increases, a failed universal healthcare proposal, a ban on assault weapons, and the ratification of NAFTA. In 1998, Clinton was impeached by the U.S. Congress on charges of perjury and obsruction of justice relating to the Paula Jones case and the Monica Lewinsky affair.
43. Gore took office in 1998 after President Clinton was impeached. During his term, he kept the economy on the good side and brokered a landmark peace treaty between Israel the Palestinian Authority. He was reelected over George W. Bush in 2000 in a close and controversial election centering around Florida, with Joe Lieberman as his VP. During his second term, he invaded Afghanistan as a response to terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001. The war and the economy were stagnant come 2004, when he was running for a third term.
44. Bush was elected over President Gore in 2004, with George Pataki as his VP. During his term he strengthened the economy via major tax cuts to the middle class. However, the war in Afghanistan got progressively worse under his leadership. In 2008, a troop surge was enacted in order to save the war effort before the elections were underway. He faced a limp primary challenge from the antiwar Congressman Ron Paul.
45. Obama was elected in 2008, becoming the first African-American Commander-in-Chief. The major focus of his term was withdrawing troops from Afghanistan after declaring the war a failure. He did so, but was assassinated by an Al Qaeda operative in 2011 while addressing the few remaining U.S. toops there. Other major accomplishments include the passage of a universal healthcare bill in March 2010.
46. Bayh took office in January of 2011 after President Obama was assassinated. The first test of his term was the massive earthquake in Japan in March. He sent billions in aid.

Trumping the White House

POD: Fred Trump decides to try his hand at politics after a successful career developing middle class housing in Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx. In 1954, the Republican Party in New York nominates Trump for Governor instead of Senator Irving Ives. Trump is elected Governor in a close race over the Democrat Averell Harriman. In 1956, President Eisenhower offers Secretary of Defense to Vice President Nixon if he dropped from the ticket. Ike picks Trump as his running mate. In 1958, stress from dealing with the crisis in Lebanon results in a second heart attack for Eisenhower, this time fatal.

35. Frederick C. Trump (R-NY): 1958-1969

36. Hubert Humphrey (D-MN): 1969-1975
37. Stewart Udall (D-AZ): 1975-1977

38. Malcolm Forbes (R-NJ): 1977-1981
39. Gary Hart (D-CO): 1981-1989
40. Donald Trump (R-NY): 1989-1997
41. John Kerry (D-MA): 1997-2001
42. Hillary Rodham (R-IL): 2001
43. Colin Powell (R-NY): 2001-2005

44. Gray Davis (D-CA): 2005-Present

Notes:
36. Died of cancer

37. First Mormon President

38. Governor of New Jersey (1962-1970) and Republic nominee for Vice President (1972) as John Ashbrook’s running mate.

39. Governor of Colorado (1975-1981), Hart promised to remove all American troops from Iran if elected President in response to President Forbes’ unpopular decision to send troops there to intervene in that country’s civil war. Reza Cyrus Pahlavi, who succeeded his father as Shah of Iran in 1980, agreed to reforms reducing the monarchy to a ceremonial figurehead role and autonomous governments for the Arab and Kurd minorities. Hart and his Secretary of State Eliot Richardson would share the 1984 Nobel Peace Prize for their efforts in brokering peace to Iran.

40. Son of former President Trump, Donald graduated from Harvard Law School and became a lawyer. In 1978, he was elected Attorney General of New York. When Senator Jacob Javits retired in 1980, Trump was elected to the Senate although Hart easily carried New York. In the Senate, Trump co-authored the Trump-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1985. In 1988, Trump defeated Vice President Jimmy Carter to win the Presidency

42. Attorney General (1983-1991), Governor of Illinois (1991-1997), and first female President. The Rodham Presidency came to a tragic end on September 11, 2001 when a plane hijacked by Muslim terrorists deliberately crashed into the White House during a meeting with Vice President William Janklow, Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, Senate President Pro Tem Ted Stevens and Treasury Secretary Steve Forbes. Secretary of State Powell was in Toronto meeting with Canada’s Foreign Minister at the time of the terrorist attack.

43. When the smoke cleared, the line of succession went to Powell who became the first African-American President of the United States. He declared a war on terror and ordered military air strikes on terrorist training camps in Afghanistan and removal of the Taliban from power. By the end of October, Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri and Mullah Muhammad Omar were killed and Ahmad Shah Massoud was elected President of Afghanistan. Despite 80 percent popularity ratings, President Powell decided not to run in 2004.

44. Governor of California (1999-2005), Davis united the progressive and isolationist wings behind his candidacy. With his running mate Dennis Kucinich, Davis easily defeated former Secretary of Defense John McCain in 2004. Presently, Davis presides over a healthy economy and enjoys 60 percent job approval ratings.

Incredibly Hackish Story
A couple years back, before I joined the forum, I was inspired by a thread about dividng the US into several different countries (not Kalwejt's thread). Inspired by that, I made a POD where riots occured in California after the 1972 re-election of Richard Nixon and it creates a general rebellion. Meanwhile, with the US involved in domestic war, Nixon basically has plants put under government control in order to properly fund and execute the war. However, I was such a Conservative hack bac then that I got de-railed from the "American splits up" idea, and instead, just got into the politics of the situation (though the rebellion did have some interesting consequences, such as Jerry Brown being a Congressman from Nevada). Eventually, I almost completely forgot about my original POD, and this is the Presidential list I came up with.

Richard M Nixon (R-CA)/Spiro T agnew (R-MD), Gerald R Ford (R-MI) 1969-1977
Ronald Reagan (R-CA)/Bob Dole (R-KS) 1977-1985
Bob Dole (R-KS)/Ron Paul (R-TX), George Bush (R-TX) 1985-1989

Ted Kennedy (D-MA)/Bill Clinton (D-AR) 1989-1993
Ron Paul (R-TX)/? 1993-2001
Joe Lieberman (D-CT)/? 2001-2009
Jeb Bush (R-FL)/Mitt Romney (R-MA) 2009-Present

I eventually stopped after the 1984 election. However, I had the Presidential list planned out in my head. The idea behind the Paul Presidency was that in 1974, people were so tired of Nixon's "Authoritarian Conservatism", that Libertarian leaning politicians were able to win a number of Congressional races, including Paul's first campaign. In Congress he became one of the leaders of the economic conservatives until Reagan appointed him Treasury Secretary in like 1982. In the 1984 Republican Primaries (held between former Vice-President Ford, Vice-President Dole, and Texas Senator George Bush), Paul was able to win a couple of Western primaries with support of Libertarian leaning politicians like Mark Hatfield and Barry Goldwater. While Ford and Bush both dropped out to endorse Dole, Dole chose Paul to united the party. After the landslide 1984 victory of the Dole/Paul ticket, I just stopped.
In my head, I got the idea that Paul migth resign after some sort of tax increase, and Dole could choose Secretary of State George Bush for President. Therefore, when 1992 roled around, Paul, as a former Treasury Secretary and former Vice-President, was an actually credible candidate, and he beat Kennedy.

It was EXTREMELY hackish, I will admit. I still have hte thing, which goes over thirty pages, maybe even forty, on my computer

Losing tickets:
1976: Ted Kennedy/Jimmy Carter
1980: Walter Mondale/Jimmy Carter
1984: Lloyd Bentsen*/Jesse Jackson

1988: Bob Dole/George Bush
1992: Ted Kennedy/Bill Clinton

*Bush defeated him in 1982 for the Senate. I must have forgotten about thise when I had him running as a candidate

I guess so. I'd like to think I've gotten better since then, though...

Yes, you certainly have. Would you have put John Anderson in the Oval Office when you first wrote the INCREDIBLY HACKISH scenario?

You're just taking the election's losers and making them the winners, besides, Adlai E Stevenson's Presidency is two terms.

I always keep wanting to make more lists and have a couple of ideas, but half-way through making the list, I look at my most recent part of the list and ask myself "am I really proud of that?" and the list fails.

I always peter off for fear that I'm being unrealistic.
