I will give you the first one shortly.
 It started as 'what would happen if JFK is not murdered' and goes like this:

JFK get reelected, vietnam is a lesser issue with less GI's. after 2 full terms the president's brother RFK is elected (full 2 terms) and in 76' Teddy Kennedy wins. but in 1980 he loses to one Ronald Reagen. after 20 Kennedy years the next 20 are what we know - Reagen, Bush sr, Clinton.
In 1999 JFK jr do not die in a crash plane but after his father pressure seek the presidency and narrowly defeat bush jr in 2000 with 537 votes margin in FL. the Kennedy again controlled the white house. but JFK jr plane does crash in july 2001 and vp Al Gore is President. he wants to nominate sen john Kerry as vp but a sex scandal rules thats out. on 9/11 the plane that was aim at the white house hit the west wing and kills president gore. with no vp the speaker of the house Dennis Hastert become president.....  
 

list:
JFK        1961-1969
RFK       1969-1977
teddy k 1977-1981
reagen  1981-1989
bush sr 1989-1993
clinton   1993-2001
JFK jr     2001
gore      2001
hastert 2001-

It would be George P. Bush, actually, and he would win, taking California (55), Nevada (20), Arizona (26), New Mexico (22), Colorado (31), Texas (61), Georgia (33), and Florida (45).  Latinos account for half of the voting population, and P. Bush takes 80% of the Latino vote.

Good God, you too are imperialist

Three Kennedys in a row! I don't think our nation could handle it!

I doubt really would happen.

When the Republicans took over Congress they would pass an amendment barring the immediate relatives of the President from being elected.

lol
no jeb now

Interesting from 1980 to 2008 one Democratic president , it just wouldn’t happen  
     

if bush wins this fall IT IS one democratic president from 1980 to 2008

Good point... but i was focusing more on the fact that in the timeline there is one, one termer, democratic president, and some how the republicans win and win presidential elections, which hasn’t happened and i believe wouldn’t happen...  

probably...
