on another website (
www.othertimelines.com.) i am creating a four to five part timeline in which president john f. kennedy escapes assasination in dallas on november 22,1963 and runs for re-election against new york governor nelson a. rockefeller (who didn't marry his partner margaretta in '63). but the kennedy campaign is troubled by the start it is known to the public that he indeed had an affair with a "supposed" east german spy called ellen romesch and his vice president lyndon b. johnson has resigned over the scandal. governor rockefeller easily defeats president kennedy for re-election in 1964. here's the tickets for the major partys from 1964 to 2004. this '*' indicates that they won the election. if this disccusion kicks off i'll add more information as time goes by.
