2052 Timeline and onwards

[pogo stick]

I think it was obvious my last timeline was a dud, so I'm going to start over.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

President John Dandorth (R-PA) will not run for re-election, because of his age and health problems. The 74 year old President will be known mainly for overturning Presidential term limits.

Jan 2051 : GOP Senator from New Jersey, Giuseppe Boscovich (R-NJ) has announced a run for the Presidency.

Boscovich, was first elected to the U.S Senate back in 2044. Boscovich has a mixed voting record, fiscally far-right, socially liberal.

There are three other potential GOP Contenders :

Governor Bobby Richards (R-IN) 
Former Sec of Defense Diana Robinson (R-TN)
Vice-President Fred Conrad (R-UT)


On the Democratic side, former Governor Kelly Banks (D-WA) is the only announced candidate.


 Feb 2051   Vice-President Fred Conrad (R-UT) has announced he will run for the presidency.

Later in the month, Democratic Senator Kathleen Howards (D-MT) has announced she will run for president.

GOP Primary Polls

Conrad (R-UT) : 34.77%
Boscovich (R-NJ) : 33.87%
Undecided :  31.36%

Democratic Primary Polls

Banks (D-WA) : 29.88%
Howards (D-MT) : 29.03%
Undecided :  41.09%


Vice-President Conrad is expected to have a upper hand, considering how he is a descendant of President John Thune (R-SD), also the fact that he is a very popular Vice-President helps him as well.

March 2051 Former Sec of Defense Diana Robinson (R-TN) will run for president.

March 1st 2052

We will now run a program on FOX that will go in depths of each contender's career.


President Fred Conrad (R-Utah)
The 52 (53 in October), President has a very rich career. He was a popular prosecutor in NYC. He moved to Utah in 2032. And ran  for congress (UT-02) in 2034.  He was a congressman until 2040, when he was elected governor.

He was elected Vice-President in 2048, and was very popular, then was sworn in as President June 30th 2051, after the death of Pres. Dandorth (R-PA).


Former Secy of Defense Diana Robinson (R-Tennessee)

The 40 (41 in December) year old woman was elected congresswoman at the age of 27. She retired to become Sectary of Defense under President Flynn (D-NC). She ocntinued to serve on President Dandorth's cabinet, until December 2050, when she retired to give birth.

U.S Senator Robert Griffith (R-New Hampshire)

The 47 year old Senator was elected Into the U.S House in 2034. And was electe Senator in 2040. And re-elected with 56% of the vote in 2046. The very conservative senator ran for President in 2048, and lost to Then-Senator John Dandorth (R-PA). Could he do better this time?

Connor Schmidt (R-Pennsylvania)

The Iran War Veteran, and Retired U.S General, has announced a run for president in a Eisenhower-way. Schmidt  has never held a political office. But the 58 year old Jewish-American has shown very good numbers in the polls. He was Dandorth's biggest contributor

Giuseppe Boscovich (R-New Jersey)

The 63 year old Senator was first elected to ocngress in 2020. Then elected senator in 2044, and 2050.  The very fiscally conservative Republican is the only GOP contender who switched parties in their youth. Switching from Libertarian to the GOP in 2022.

A well-respected Senator, and the most bi-partisan GOP Senator in the nation. Could he win?


Jason Steele (D-Vermont)

the 61 year old, 6 term governor will run for president again, after two failed runs (2044, 2048) but this time he has a chance at winning.

He was elected into the U.S Senate in 2034, but then ran for governor when his first term was coming to a end.

Kelly Banks (D-Washington)

The 55 year old former governor has a very moderate  voting record, being Pro-Life and Anti-Taxes. But otherwise she is liberal.

She was elected governor when she was 46. Before that she was a congresswoman.



Kathleen Howards (D-Montana)

The very liberal 51 year old Senator has become a rising star after her amazing speech-giving talents became known.

She was elected to the Senate in 2046. And before that she was governor.

Henry Hodges (D-Vermont) 

A washed-out politician who served three house terms. But it is shocking that he has hit over 10% of support in the primary polls.

John Hamilton (D-Hawaii) 

The two-term Governor and Iran Veteran has hit the roof of popularity, with a 67% approval from Republicans and 92% from Democrats.

He is a liberal, but with some moderate leanings. His only conservative stances are on crime, death penalty and foreign policy.

Henry Hodges Carries nothing

[pogo stick]

March 6th 2052 The first day of primaries have ended. With both parties having a front-runner. Diana Robinson for the GOP, and Kathleen Howards for the Democrats.

Both have already started camapigning in huge may primary states, like Texas and North Carolina.

Democrat Henry Hodges has dropped out of the Democratic Primary after being upsetted in Maine and only receiving 10.91% in the state. Polls in Vermont show Hodges with 4.93% of support.

Hodges endorsed Howards for President. John Hamilton  is start to be increasingly labeled as a Center-left democrat, not a far-left one as many democrats  have once thought. Hamilton is socially center-left, a foreign policy  conservative, and a Fiscally center-left democrat.

On the GOP Side only one contender is not very conservative overall, Senator Boscovich of New Jersey.

Boscovich is very, very fiscally conservative, very Liberal on foreign policy issues, and Extremely socially liberal. Including the fact that he supports the legalization of heroin and Cocaine. Conservatives will try to sabotage this senator's chances by running very negative AD's claiming he wants to destroy the Government and let Rogue Countries attack the U.S.

The ADs are working. as Boscovich only won Liberal states like New York, by 1 point, where polls showed him up by 8.

Diana Robinson (R-TN) is quickly becoming the leading contender, with her biggest opponent being Incumbent-President Fred Conrad (R-UT)

* Vice-President confirmed December 2051. Vice-President was nominated by GOP Senate members after Conrad's first choice (Gov. Bobby Richards ) was not able to win confirmation by only 2 votes.

Late-March 2052 Scandal on the campaign trail!


President Conrad's  Campaign chief of staff Martin Johnson was arrested with bribing Conrad aides to steal information from the oval office.

Conrad responded immediately stating he did not know about this. The FBI has created a investigation team, leaded by Senator Oliver Garnette (R-ME) to investigate President Conrad and his administration.

 Later Garnette reported that the President was clean. The investigation ended officially April 15th.

Approval Ratings for President Conrad

Approve : 52% (-5)
Disapprove : 40%
Undecided : 8%


April 16th Martin Johnson pled guilty to charges and admitted he was a spy for a enemy nation. Johnson has been given a 600 year sentence in prison.


April 28th 2052 Speculation has been building around Conrad, that he may drop out of the Presidential Race.

Conrad barely trails Diana Robinson and Robert Griffith in the polls. But the Johnson Scandal hurt his General election chances and will hurt his legacy.

April 29th 2052 : President Conrad announced he will serve the remainder of his term, but he will not run for a full term because of "Personal struggles".

Rumors of a extramarital affair swarmed the already increasingly unpopular President.

[pogo stick]

May 1st 2052 6 days before the 2nd Primary day, President Conrad officially drops out. And A few hours later it is discovered that he and his wife, Lucy, have divorced each other.

As the rumors are flying even more, the President's Approval ratings collapse, hitting a all-time low of 47%.

The Controversial President took the stage and announced with a deep voice "I have been hearing these rumors that I have cheated on my wife or that i'm gay" The President stared blankly at the crowd.

"These rumors are all fake, all lies. I have not cheated on my wife, but the vice-versa occurred. My wife had cheated on me with... My First Vice-Presidential nominee, Governor Bobby Richards (R-Indiana)."

" Once I discovered the affair... I had no time to focus on it as my wife, Had led on fake and false rumors about me betraying America. About me helping Martin Johnson...My wife and I divorced a week ago.... Abd she had been arrested this morning for conspiracy and fabricating lies against the President of the United states, that could lead to my impeachment." Soon after the President announced he will serve out the rest of May and then resign as President to spend time with his children.

[pogo stick]

May 4th 2052 Governor Richards (R-IN) had resigned as Governor and faces investigation in connection with Ms. Lucy Johnson (formerly Conrad).
