They were winning huge landslides in the 20s.

If the depression never happened, how much longer would that have kept up?

I can't see the Democrats remaining viable outside the South without the Great Depression.

If WWII still was a looming threat in the 30's, that would be the ticket that does it for the Dems.

I'd assume if Charles Bryan or Harry Truman got on the top of the ticket, they'd win the White House. I think Bryan could win in 1932 or 1936 if he got on the ticket. Would Ruth Bryan Owen run for President ever?

No Great Depression = No Nazi rise in Germany and no aggressive militarism in Japan, no?
