Despite my intense dislike for his VP... Kefauver. Though Unpledged Electors is tempting.

I hope that once the SP is gone, we will still have the choice to vote for minor parties, like Socialist Labor in 1960.  No way I'm supporting that scoundrel Kennedy.

Parties in 1960 will probably be something like Gore/McCarthy vs. Rockefeller/Goldwater vs. Byrd/Thurmond.

Personally, I can't wait for three term George McGovern, assuming we didn't make the 22nd Amendment.

I believe we did, as Cath mentioned "the term limit rule" in the Uber-Convention. And McGovern will serve his terms from '73 to '81, after Humphrey '63-'73 and before Kennedy '81-'89.

That'd be a wild ride for the nation. From a man with no principles, to a man of great principle, to a man who was probably guilty of manslaughter. Interesting jumps there.
