1924 Uber-Convention

[Sewer]

Debs is getting up there in age...

Regardless, Debs.

[Sewer]

You know what? I'm voting to reelect the President.

How will we determine the Vice-President, though? Second-highest vote tally? I don't want Vice President Coolidge assuming office when Debs dies.

This is a Primary. We still have a General, I think.

[Sewer]

All the Republican choices are good, but Coolidge seems to be the only one who'll end Debs' disastrous economic policies.

You want to put in a man whose policies laid the foundation for the Great Depression?! Coolidge is the last person we want in the seat of the Presidency.

You want a Depression, be my guest. Re-elect Debs and deepen the Panic.

A Depression would never happen if we elect Coolidge!

...Oh. Wait.

Cathcon, I want Sen. Lee Overman (D-NC)/Rep. Alexander Mitchell Palmer (D-PA) on the ballot on the Anti-Socialist Party ticket.

Splitting your vote will lead you to victory! Great idea.

[Sewer]

Also, dawgs, trust me. You don't need to all vote Debs. There are some parties (Democrats, anyone?) that could use some primary voters. Giving Debs 63% at this Uber-Convention isn't going to give him a land-slide re-election.

Yeah, probably right.

Oh well, too late.

No.

Cathcon, I want Sen. Lee Overman (D-NC)/Rep. Alexander Mitchell Palmer (D-PA) on the ballot on the Anti-Socialist Party ticket.

Seconded, though I wish the standard bearer for anti-communism in this era was someone better than Lee Overman.

Does the "right" of Atleftica truly want their vote split three ways?

The left has had its vote split four ways on occasion and we've done fine.

Underwood and Marshall losing is hardly the left doing fine.  Debs is alright, but not the way he was elected.

...La Follette was to the left of Underwood and Debs was to the left of Marshall.
