List of Alternate Presidents

[feeblepizza]

Cathcon, these lists are always hackish, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

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?

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make...

I mean you're not a hopeless right wing hack anymore.

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

[SirNick]

Yuppers. I did, its mostly one termers though.

[CathKhan]

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 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.

Point of Divergence: (Remember a little while ago when I began a timeline where George McGovern was elected President in 1972? Well, this was to be the proposed list; even though the timeline was to finish by January 1977. Therefore, after President Brown and maybe President Hart, the list is not to be taken seriously). Richard Nixon dies suddenly on August 15, 1971 at Camp David, allowing Spiro Agnew to assume the Presidency.

11. Senator Henry Clay wins the 1844 election, thus re-booting the Whig Party.
15. National hero and Governor of two states Sam Houston would win the Whitehouse, only to die two years later.
17. The election of Abraham Lincoln, a Clay protege and a campaigner for the abolition of slavery, would cause the South to attempt secession, leading to the Civil War. The South, called the Republican States of America, or RSA, would last for only six years before the North, or the Union, would win out, cementing Lincoln in American history books for all time.
28. With the election of Theodore Roosevelt, a generally Conservative time in America's history would come to an end. The Whig party, amongst infighting between Liberal and Conservative factions, would begin its shift leftward. Before that, both parties had been generally Conservative. However, that time was coming to an end with the final polarization of America's political system.
31. Continuing the Whig party's leftward drift, Governor Franklin D Roosevelt would be elected President. He would be incredibly popular, however his reign would end in the middle of his second term.
32. The son of a President and the grand-son of a Vice-President, Robert Taft had a lot of pressure on him, and not just from his family's legacy. His selectiona s Vice-President in the first place had been to appease the Conservative wing of the Whig party, and by 1948, he would fail to even win re-nomination. It would instead go to Progressive Earl Warren.
33. As President, Earl Warren was able to pass a constitutional amendment making the date of Presidential inauguration January 15th instead of March 4th. He wouldn't have pushed for it had he known he'd be cutting his own Presidency to less than four years.
39. The nation's first Catholic President, RFK had come from an immense political background trailing back to the 1950's. His grand-fathers had been Massachusetts politicians, his father had been Commerce Secretary in the Garner administration, his oldest brother had been Vice-President, another brother had been Secretary of State and other members of his family had served in various elected and appointed positions. He himself had been Director of the FBI 1953-1957, Congressman 1957-1968, Senator 1969-1978, and Governor 1979-1987. His election would makr a shift back to Conservatism for the country after the largely Progressive period from 1920 to 1988.

Of course, several possible options exist as to how the Whig Party might go: Conservative, Liberal, Libertarian, Populist. This is just a possibility, and a slim one at that.

[CathKhan]

Took me quite a while.

[CathKhan]

While people usually do Libertarian Republicans v Populist Democrats, I'm going to try:
Libertarian Democrats v Authoritarian Republicans
Granted, it won't be as easy as the alternative.

[1] Last President elected for (two) four year terms. The 18th Amendment, restricting Presidents to a single six-year term, was passed when he was President-elect, but at his urging was made applicable only from the 1920 election. "When the American people elected me last November, they did so for a term of four years, which should not be retrospectively extended".

Clark's first term was controversial, notably for the "war scare" of 1914/15 when the US came close to hostilities with Britain over his refusal to permit the inspection of American mails or the seizure of foodstuffs and other items not generally recognised as contraband of war, which he enforced by encouraging American merchantmen to travel in convoy under the protection of the US Navy. Later, this practice was also used to protect American shipping against possible attack by German u-boats (no such attacks were made), and extended to passenger liners of all nationalities providing they carried no contraband. When it was suggested that the latter action was questionable in international law, Clark replied "If belligerants are allowed to bend the rules because they reckon that conditions have changed, then I don't see why neutrals shouldn't". He maintained US neutrality until the end of the war, and after the German victory on the European continent, peace between the Central Powers and the British and Japanese Empires was negotiated in Baltimore.

Clark was re-elected in 1916, defeating Republican Elihu Root, but was unable to secure the election of a Democratic successor. He died two days before the expiry of his second term in 1921

[2] Vice President on death of Clark. His two day tenure is likely to stand for a long time as the shortest in American history.

[3] First President elected for a six-year term under the 18th Amendment.

Great list. I'd really like to see a timeline about it some day.

Me too but it would be a mammoth task. I may chicken out and let someone else do it if they want to.

In reality, of course, the second half of the list is somewhat fictitious, as the persons named were born after the PoD, and so would probably either not have been born at all, or would not be identical to those who bore the same names OTL. On the other hand, since I've kept the US out of WW1 (and so possibly butterflied WW2 away as well) there will be 100,000 plus men surviving to father kids who never existed in our world - perhaps including a President or two. Hence my inclusion of Champ Clark III, though I haven't checked if such a person actually exists in our world.

[Mikestone8]

Having quickly googled, it appears that there is a Champ Clark III, but he's in the computer business and apparently hasn't gone into politics - at least not on this TL.

**** President Shelby picked Moderate Republican Senator John McCain as his VP to water down his own far right views, but in the end this act of "bipartisanship" failed Shelby lost badly losing 57 to 40 in the popular vote and only carrying 7 states. Arizona nor Alabama were one of those seven.

Ranked in order of best to worst:

No rating for President Coleman's adminstration.

Also 9/11 / Iraq War never happened so Jewish-Arabic and American-Arabic relations are much less tense.

Republican Party: Center Left.
Democratic Party: Center Right.
