Thurmond wasn't on enough ballots in enough states to win election. His primary goal was to throw the election to the House or to the Republicans to show how badly the Democrats needed the Dixiecrats.

In mid 1952 China and the Soviet Union become one country called "Soviet China." Geritpanrael and Soviet China sign a pact agreeing to become allies so that they will not start another World War.

In 1952 the Democrats nominate FDR with Estes Kefauver as his Vice-President. Republicans run Robert Taft and Senator William F. Knowland (R-California).



Roosevelt/Kefauver - 450
Taft/Knowland - 57

(NOTE: 4 EV's added because of Israel)

Republicans refuse to be elected because of their antiwar stance. FDR launches the U.S. into war with Soviet China and Geritpanrael.

Korea becomes a part of Soviet China as well as India and Mongolia and Australia.

Geritpanrael takes all of Western Europe.

World War III has begun and is popular because of FDR's uber sexiness

In 1955 President Kefauver announces that he will be running for reelection and Israel is blown up by Communists. He decides not to go to war.

Republican candidates are Earl Warren, Harold Stassen, and Senator Richard Nixon (R-California).



Nixon/Stassen - 266
Kefauver/Stevenson - 265

Nixon wins in a close election and is shot in the face 17 times by a Communist rebel. He dies immediately and Stassen becomes POTUS. He repeals the n Act of 1949 and gives Jews full rights.

1963 The major candidates are President MacCormack for the Democrats and for the Republicans Nelson Rockefeller and Barry Goldwater are rematching.

1964 MacCormack/Conally is the Democrat ticket while Goldwater/Rockefeller run for the GOP. Former President Strom Thurmond gets mad and runs as an independent with Governor George Wallace (D-Alabama) as his VP.



Goldwater/Rockefeller - 333
Thurmond/Wallace - 142
MacCormack/Conally - 62

Republicans win the Congress in a supermajority and have 49 state governorships (except for Alabama but they are expected to win in 1966).

November 4, 1964 On the day immediately after the election a recount is called because of the illegal "Texas ticket" or MacCormack and Conally.

The recount results:



Americans vote in an overwhelming majority to reelect Thurmond -

Thurmond/Wallace - 488
Goldwater/Rockefeller - 49
MacCormack/Conally - 0

President MacCormack is shot by a Thurmond supporter and Wallace becomes President. He is shot too and the House Speaker, John W. MacCormack's Clone, becomes President.
