Good TL so far; when does it start diverging from Fear, Loathing, and Gumbo?

Hope this isn't as dark as the original TL (read the 1980s part of Fear, Loathing, and Gumbo) gets, and I wonder what's going to be different from the original...

This is an interesting TL--at least the world won't be as dystopic as the original TL...

Good update.

BTW, I expect Bernie Sanders will work in the Dellums campaign in some fashion--he and Dellums had a lot in common (I call Dellums the African-American Bernie Sanders, because he had many of the same beliefs as Sanders does (1))...

(1) Though Sanders and Dellums are still moderates compared to Eugene Debs, IMO...

Yeah, after Rumsfeld got elected, it jumped right over the shark.  Big time--so I'm glad to see a relatively realistic take on Drew's scenario...

Now that we know that the US is not going to have Donald Rumsfeld (shudder) as president, I wonder who will become president in 1976 and 1980...

BTW, when, in a timeline, The Soviet Union is among the few countries that is doing well...yeah, you know it's a dystopia...

I don't like Donald Rumsfeld IOTL--that being said, OTL's Rumsfeld would probably be horrified at what his Rumsfeldia counterpart did as president...
