Champ Clark - Conservative?

Clark was also a non-interventionist (at least in terms of Europe) who didn't want to get involved in WWI. That might help solidify some peoples' opinions that he was to the right of Wilson. It's wrong, since he was a progressive, it's just that he was of a different breed.

IIRC, it was assumed at the time Bryan would endorse him.

Clark's presidency has the possibility of massive butterflies. It's likely that we don't intervene militarily in WWI, and even possible we stay out altogether. Probably a victory for the Central Powers, or at least a compromise peace.

I didn't remember if Clark supported it or not, but I remember Bryan being a proponent. I'm not sure blockage of the Federal Reserve's creation will last much longer though, since there were many elements advocating it after the 1907 Panic.
