33.
The Business Plot falls into place with the support of Smedley Butler, who rouses up support through veteran's organizations to overthrow the government. The ensuing march combined with defections in the military overwhelm FDR and the government. President Butler picks popular Fascist publisher Seward Collins as a vice-chairman. Congress is abolished, replaced by a hand picked system of coordinating "boards" for various purposes. The constitution is rewritten, abolishing many civil liberties. General Butler throws support behind Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini during their rises. In 1936, a Pro-Democracy protester kills both Butler and Collins with a bomb. The Boards come together to select Douglas MacArthur, another prominent supporter, as president.
34.
Douglas MacArthur clamps down even farther on "subversives", opening up work camps to which prominent intellectuals, African American leaders, liberals, communists, and Jews were sent. Moreover, any last semblance of free speech was gone. MacArthur tapped into the widely well known Priest Charles Coughlin as a VP, which boosted popular support. Support of the regime revolved around a fascist economy plan and the hyper-nationalism instilled in society. The US never enters World War II, except to provide aid to Germany and Italy as they fought the USSR, France, and England. However, the US becomes incredibly well armed through a militaristic focus and immense research efforts. President MacArthur steps down in 1952 amid concerns about his allegiances and pressure from the board.
35.
General Curtis LeMay takes the reins from MacArthur, selecting the US' top Anti-Communist Joe McCarthy as VP. The administration ends persecution of Jewish Americans due to international criticism, but begins to execute any and all suspected communists. President LeMay attacks North Korea and Communist China in 1953. France [Fascist state], Germany, and Italy all aid the US as the USSR, still reeling from WWII, stays out. This anti-Communist crusade is successful and the US wins the war. Through the 1960's, resistance flares up among students, but is quickly crushed by the military. In the Early 1970's, militarized Socialists openly clash with the military. The Board perceives LeMay as too weak and calls for him to step down, but he refuses and is killed by his own guards.
36.
Alabama Governor George Wallace becomes next in line, picking LeMay's Chief Economic Coordinator Barry Goldwater. He crushes resistance with brutal methods and expands the prison camp programs. Wallace organizes a "Global Nationalist Conference", opting to enter an alliance with other Fascist powers to discuss an invasion and splitting up of South America. However, German leaders refuse and plans fall through. Barry Goldwater resigns due to illness in 1980 and is replaced by Georgia Governor Larry MacDonald. In 1988, George Wallace passes away at age 69 from a mysterious viral disease. Unrest begins to grow in the US as Germany's Nazi regime crumbles in December 1987. Democracy spreads to France too.
37.
General Alexander Haig takes the reins immediately, calling for an end to the protests. His vice president is nationalist David Duke, who leads the effort to crush some of the civil rights protests. Troops begins to raid colleges and social clubs, committing atrocities on a horrific scale. Haig's government is known for bombing suspected "subversive hideouts" which ranged from schools to hospitals. Entire cities were destroyed. In 1991, president Haig realizes the nation's power is shifting as raids on government offices and bases begin to increase in number and magnitude. Eventually, Haig becomes desperate and paranoid, abolishing the Board altogether and killing his VP in 1993.

THE COUP!!
Small armed bands of democracy protesters begin to raid government buildings. They hide out and organize in rural areas, where larger groups have begun to take over towns. A propaganda campaign has been massing for years, building opposition to the regime through secret meetings. Arms were supplied in part through covert contracts with disgruntled military insiders, British officials, the New German Government, and Democratic China. These bands coordinated in 1994 as the Underground Opposition. In 1995, citizens across the nation begin to rebel and take up arms. Even some top military leaders join the UO and lead chapters in battling the government. Well orchestrated guerrilla raids raise funds and gather equipment. In June 1995, powerful waves of UO forces force Regime fighters to collapse around the capital Washington DC. In August 1995, the seige ends and the UO takes over the capital, executing president Haig.

38.
Pennsylvania UO leader Arlen Specter is selected by the UO to be the first president. His administration picks national UO Commander Colin Powell, who does a fantastic job developing a civil rights program for the country to follow. A quite liberal constitution is drafted, prison camps are closed, the system is reformed, and former officials are tried in court. In the next elections in 2000, Arlen Specter is reelected with 60% of the vote. In the next years, as economic policy is modified, a split develops politically, causing the formation of the Centre Party [Centrist] and the Progressive Party [Centre-Left to Left Wing]. In 2004, the aging president Specter [Centre] loses reelection.
39.
Paul Wellstone ascends to the presidency winning 52% of the vote to Specter's 48%. He chooses civil rights leader Barack Obama as his VP. Wellstone's administration has created a more progressive tax policy, social welfare system, and a reformed higher education system based on a plan formed by the previous administration. Moreover, he has worked towards forming an International Democracy Organization to help advocate global human rights.

Nukes and Recovery

1965-1967: Barry Goldwater/William Miller (Republican)
Losing 1964: Lyndon Johnson/Hubert Humphrey (Democratic)
In 1967, after prolonged proxy war in Cuba and skirmishes/terror attacks on the US, the USSR bombs DC and New England. The capital is moved to St. Louis, MO, and military leaders are hastily ushered into power for a short period after the US signs a rigged peace treaty with major restrictions.

1967-1969: Robert McNamara/Curtis LeMay
Elections are called soon after with a new party system. The US is now in shambles economically, socially, and on the world stage. The junta has barely held the nation together. DC is totally liquidated and the surrounding region is evacuated permanently.

1969-1977: Robert F. Kennedy/Richard Nixon (Rebuild America)
Losing 1968: Ronald Reagan/John Ashbrook (Anti-Communist)
Gus Hall/Alex Rose (Communist)

Losing 1972: Ronald Reagan/Howard Baker (Anti-Communist)
George McGovern/Harold Hughes (Christian Democratic)
Eugene McCarthy/Angela Davis (Communist)
A unified ticket ascends to help build up the US. This administration takes a moderately anti-communist stance, working as hard as they can to fix the economic crisis and prevent communist takeover or civil war. They rebuild key infrastructure, reform healthcare to properly care for bombing victims, negotiate important international deals, and keep rebellion from happening. However, in 1975, far-right terrorist attacks stun the nation. The 1976 election is plagued by accusations of fraud and foreign meddling.

1977-1981: Eugene McCarthy/Leo Isacson (United Labor)
Losing 1976: Jimmy Carter/Walter Mondale (Christian Democratic)
Howard Baker/John Connally (Anti-Communist)
Nelson Rockefeller/Ed Muskie (Unity)
In a naibliter of an election, the Communists win (likely due to Soviet vote tampering). This administration is a total disaster, allowing the Soviets to take over Canada and burning bridges with traditional US allies. Civil war nearly breaks out as right-wing forces cause riots nationwide and destroy government property while the economy enters a depression due to reckless nationalization and collectivization processes.

1981-1989: Howard Baker/George Wallace (Anti-Communist)
Losing 1980: George McGovern/Mo Udall (Democratic Socialist)
Gerald Ford/Jimmy Carter (Unity)
Eugene McCarthy/Leo Isacson (Communist)

Losing 1984: Gary Hart/Bob Dole (Unity)
Mo Udall/Patsy Mink (Democratic Socialist)
Noam Chomsky/Angela Davis (Communist)
Marked by privatization and a massive buildup of the military that violates peace terms, president Baker's terms in office signify a return of the US. While the USSR struggles with domestic issues, the US regains strength. Alliances with major European nations are corrected by Baker and his economic reforms create a recovery. However, terrorism and crime increase and Baker acts to no avail.

1989-1997: Mario Cuomo/Jesse Jackson (Democratic Socialist)
Losing 1988:Ted Kennedy/Pete DuPont (Unity)
Alexander Haig/Pat Robertson (Anti Communist)
Noam Chomsky/Gus Hall (Communist)

Losing 1992:Ross Perot/Dan Quayle (Anti Communist)
Bill Clinton/Bob Dole (Center)
President Cuomo tackles the crime issue by fighting poverty. He builds up US infrastructure and continues the military buildup despite warnings from the decaying USSR. Cuomo provides backing to moderate rebels in Canada who rise against the Soviets. Moreover, through a calculated economic approach, the US becomes once again the foremost economic superpower. This term shows a HUGE growth in manufacturing and high tech industries.

1997-2001: Paul Wellstone/Jerry Brown (DS)
Losing 1996:Phil Gramm/Jack Kemp (AC)
Bill Clinton/Angus King (C)
From the more progressive wing of the party, Paul Wellstone ascends to power in a rapidly strengthening US. He negotiates a treaty with China that doesn't open up trade, but ensures peaceful relations despite the aggression of the Soviets. Wellstone presides over negotiations with Canada's new government about a merger and although talks stall during election season, this move proves very divisive, leading to his loss in the 2000 election.

2001-2005: Bob Dornan/George W. Bush (Anti-Communist)
Losing 2000:Paul Wellstone/Jerry Brown (DS)
John McCain/Jim Jeffords (C)
Ralph Nader/Noam Chomsky (United Left)
The Anti-Communists take over after an unpopular treaty process begins and use said process to install a US-friendly government in Canada without a merger. Economic growth slows and the US veers right on social issues, banning affirmative action and abortion. The US dispatches troops to South Africa to fight off USSR forces trying to invade. However, this war proves unpopular.

2005-2009: Howard Dean/Joe Biden (Democratic Socialist)
Losing 2004:Wes Clark/Lincoln Chafee (C)
Bob Dornan/George W. Bush (AC)
Bernie Sanders/Marcy Kaptur (UL)
Winning on the unpopularity of the war and the recession, president Dean passes healthcare reform and a major stimulus package that jump starts the economy. Members of his own party alleged that he didn't make enough systemic changes or investment for long term recovery. However, in 2009, frustrations within his party about a lack of action to end the war in South Africa (Dean also dispatches troops to fight off Greek Communist rebels) and a slowdown of economic growth lead to his defeat in the primary election. The fractured party suffers from severe infighting.

2009-: Hillary Clinton/Mitt Romney (C)
Losing 2008:Bernie Sanders/Mike Gravel (UL)
Fred Thompson/Trent Lott (AC)
Bill Richardson/Barack Obama (DS)


Losing 2012:Mike Huckabee/Jerry Moran (AC)
Sherrod Brown/Brian Schweitzer (DS)
Dennis Kucinich/Rocky Anderson (UL)
The Center Party, which had grown for many years now, brought together many Americans. President Clinton curbed the national deficit by reducing waste, passed environmental regulations, withdrew troops from South Africa, and helped defeat rebels in Eastern Europe. She watched as the Soviet Union collapsed and helped a pro-US government take power. Her term has been considered one of the most successful ever.
