The Seond Term of Ronald Reagan

[/b]

Upon taking the Oath of Office for a second time, Reagan decided to re-organize his cabinet, which he had left unchanged from 1971 to 1972. Leaving the cabinet were Attorney General Robert F Kennedy and Secretary of the Treasury Hubert H Humphrey. Joining the cabinet were Reagan's friend from California Edwin Meese, recently re-elected Democratic Congressman Jack Kemp, former Michigan Governor Republican George Romney, former Whitehouse Communications Director Pat Buchanan, and others.

Vice-President: Henry M Jackson
Secretary of State: Lloyd Bentsen
Secretary of the Treasury: Daniel Patrick Moynihan
Secretary of Defense: John Connally
Attorney General: Edwin Meese
Secretary of Health and Human Services: George Romney
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development: Jack Kemp
Secretary of Education: George Wallace
Ambassador to the United Nations: Paul Wolfowitz
Director of the FBI: R Sargent Shriver
National Security Adviser: Patrick J Buchanan

Wallace, a surprise pick for Secretary fo Education, a Department recently created by Reagan, was chosen because, despite all his segregationist rhetoric, he had done good things in Alabama, especially concernign education. Some said he was also chosen as Education Secretary in order to diffuse a possible Wallace run in 1976 against Reagan who was eligible for a third term.

Meese was a Republican, even if Reagan was a Democrat.

Bush will be reelected, no doubt about it.

Great election turnout, although I would've loved to see Gravel perform just a little bit better.

President Kemp ftw

President Kemp ftw

Finally! A comment! However, it seems that these days, feeblepizza, you're the only poster acknowledging my existence, or at least the person that does it most frequently.
I have a couple of questions for you:

1) Why so you change your avatar and your name so much?

2) What does "ftw" mean?

1. I change my avatar and my name to suit the news (mostly it's because of a candidate I support or some politician who died or something). Other times, it's for fun and because I have nothing else to do. If you must know, the Independent-Indiana icon is the authentic one.

2. For the win

RIP to Tricky Dick

The next update will be the obituary of former President Henry M Jackson, who actually died in 1983, but I completely forgot about his death until we were into the late eighties.

why reluctantly?? you can be a independent with republican leanings xD

I am an independent with Republican leanings, it's just that I prefer to be identified with a party.

Why? Nothing good comes out of political parties.

RIP Nixon.

So that I'm not stranded whenever I get into politics later.

Dole all the way!

Thanks for the encouragement. Today marks this timeline's one month birthday, as well as my fifteenth birthday. Were I three years older, my theme song would be "I'm Eighteen" by Alice Cooper.

Happy birthday, man! And "Eighteen" is one of Alice's best .

However, it won't be easy given the financial crisis...

True, but just hearing the phrase, "President Gary Johnson," overtakes me with joy.
