This is awesome!

I've thought about this too. I've considered using Flora MacDonald in previous lists because my parliamentary stuff always incorporates Canada too. She was a Red Tory, but she had a populist bent to her. Susan Collins to me seems like a perfect analogue for Theresa May. Trump is a natural Boris, and Bush a natural Major. Evan Bayh is a really good choice for Blair, I usually go with Clinton or Chretien. Bayh's way better though. What about Chris Dodd for Brown?

*1980, originally expected to be a Republican blowout due to the terrible economy, instead narrows after allegations of bribery dog Agnew and Jackson decides to invade Iran to free the 273 American hostages in the nation. In the biggest polling miss in American history, Jackson, down by 8 points on Election Day, instead runs the gauntlet and pulls out narrow wins in all the states he needs, culminating in Illinois, where recounts lead to the Jackson campaign being declared the winner by a mere 12 votes seven weeks after the election - and only after the Supreme Court ruled the recounts must stop in Agnew v. Jackson. Agnew won the popular vote by 4 points.
**President Peden, while popular after the economy improves and the situation between the US and USSR settles down, refuses to run for a term of her own in 1984. The Democratic frontrunner, Ted Kennedy, is assassinated, and former Secretary of State Sargent Shriver is the Democratic nominee. He loses to Senator Specter by ten points, even though the American Conservative party eats into the GOP's margins, taking seven percent of the vote.
***President Specter's moderate republicanism makes him popular, and Senator Clinton and Governor Hart both have sex scandals during the campaign. Specter wins reelection by 25 points, winning every state except Arkansas (which he almost wins anyway). William Dannemeyer, the Conservative nominee, wins 15% of the vote, even after a controversial campaign speech wherein the Congressman gave detailed accounts of gay sex, including "rimming." Clinton's wife, Hillary Rodham, filed for divorce and subsequently ran against him in the 1990 primary, defeating her former husband and going on to a Senate career of her own.
****Eccentric Governor Rudy Perpich wins the 1992 primary in an upset, facing off against Vice President O'Connor. The election ties; the Democratic house elects Perpich while the Republican Senate elects archconservative Gingrich VP.
*****In the battle of two texans, Governors Ann Richards and Nancy Pelosi become the first all-female ticket elected to the White House amid a recession and great discontent over the Gingrich and Rumsfeld Administrations' policies, especially the highly unpopular Second Korean War.
******Watts is vulnerable due to the poor economy, but Democrats nominate Jesse Jackson Jr., an electric speaker who is found guilty of fraud and is discovered to be bipolar during the general election. At an emergency convention in October, Democrats nominate Governors Heitkamp and McCaskill, and while they make a comeback, it's not enough to defeat President Watts, who wins by 7 points.

Presidents of the United States

27. William Howard Taft, Republican (1909-1917)
 - President Taft secured a second term in 1912 after former President Roosevelt's third-party campaign came to a tragic end when the Bull Moose fell to an assassin's bullet. President Taft pursued a policy of neutrality abroad, which some authors believed bordered on isolationism, and continued the anti-corruption crusades of his first term. He did not seek re-election in 1916.
28. Woodrow Wilson, Democrat (1917-1919)
 - New Jersey Governor Woodrow Wilson ran for office on a platform of non-involvement in the Great War. His opponent, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, emphasized this difference as he campaigned on a draft and greater preparedness for American involvement in the war. On the domestic front, Wilson pushed through several progressive reforms, including banking reform and labor reform. After suffering a stroke, Wilson resigned from office in 1919 as he was preparing to declare war on the Central Powers and enter the war, citing a need to protect freedom.
29. Thomas R. Marshall, Democrat (1919-1921)
 - Assuming office upon President Wilson's resignation, President Marshall was faced with the difficult task of charting America's course in the Great War. Believing that America was not prepared to enter the war in 1919, President Marshall demurred and declined to enact the late President's war plans. As millions perished in Europe, Americans looked on in horror at the carnage. Marshall hoped that this would have spurred public support for the war. Instead, it spurred public opposition to his Presidency, losing in a 45-state sweep.
30. Leonard Wood, American (1921-1929)
 - General Leonard Wood, urged into running for President in 1920 by supporters of the late President Roosevelt, ran on his military expertise, forming the American Party and declaring boldly that America was not ready to enter the Great War. Instead, Wood turned his attention towards Mexico, decrying it as a "hotbed for insurgents, rebels, and communists". President Wood and Congress, with a Republican majority, declared war on Mexico in 1922. Opposition newspapers decried the war was "a proving ground for war in Europe" but the Second Mexican-American War was popular with the public and a success, given the weakness of the Mexican government. The Treaty of Mexico City, ratified in 1927, ceded the northern third of Mexico to the United States as the state of Sonora, and installed General John J. Pershing as President of the new Mexican Republican.
31. Charles G. Dawes, American (1929-1933)
 - The 1928 election was between Vice President Charles G. Dawes of the American Party and businessman Herbert Hoover of the Peace Party. Dawes narrowly won, ironically thanks to the electoral votes from Sonora, and pursued an alliance with the German Empire, which was rapidly closing in on a victory in Europe. With France fallen and the British forces being decimated across the Channel, Dawes saw no reason to antagonize Kaiser Wilhelm and signed the Treaty of Paris in 1930, finally entering the United States into the Generation's War, as it was now called, as a member of the Central Powers. The Americans launched a series of campaigns in Canada, dealing damage to the British Empire and its reserve forces. On January 5, 1933, King George V signed papers of abdication and newly-crowned King Edward VIII signed a peace accord with Kaiser Wilhelm the next day. Former President Taft was the American delegate to the peace conference.
32. Calvin Coolidge, Popular (1933-1937)
 - Americans abandoned the American Party in 1932, which many believe spurred President Dawes to push for peace in the Generation's War. His successor, Governor Calvin Coolidge, pledged large sums of money to be spent on rebuilding Canada after the war and attempting to build ties with the decimated British. Coolidge narrowly defeated Dawes in 1932 and found the Congress hostile to his plans. The nation was in a state of deadlock, with Coolidge refusing to colonize Canadian provinces and Congress refusing to fund Coolidge's reparations plan. In October of 1935, the stock market crashed, due to the deadlock, and sent about a run on banks. Coolidge and Congress could not agree on a plan to address the financial crisis, which only got worse, and cost Coolidge his job after one term.
33. Frank Orren Lowden, Republican (1937-1940)
 - President Lowden failed to win over support in Congress for his plan to address the Depression, as there were only two Republican Senators and sixteen Republican Congressmen elected in 1936. Lowden's plan, a bold call to national action that involved spending enormous sums of money on infrastructure projects and government-backed investment accounts, was popular with the public but couldn't find support in Congress. In 1940, he was murdered by a homeless man while the President was touring the slums of Boston as a show of sympathy.
34. Warren G. Harding, Republican (1940)
 - Vice President Harding, a little-known banker prior to being elected as Vice President in 1936, developed pneumonia and died, seventeen days after assuming office.
35. Charles Francis Adams, III, Independent (1940-1941)
 - Secretary of State Adams took charge of a country in deep turmoil and could do little to preserve it. Open rebellions were taking place in Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and Boston when he took the oath of office. Wanting to avoid allegations of being a dictator, Adams rejected calls to order the military into those cities to put down the rebellions. On January 1, 1941, after seven months in office, President Adams was displaced in a coup.

Chairmen of the Central Organizing Committee
1. General John J. Pershing, Military (1941-1950)
 - General Pershing, having rejoined the U.S. Army after six years as President of the Mexican Republic, did not believe that President Adams could right the ills of the nation. After forcing Adams' resignation, Pershing consolidated control by having the Army disband the Congress and formed the Central Organizing Committee, a committee of seven military figures who would manage the country's affairs through the crisis. The first action of the COC was to put down the rebellions through a massive show of force. In 1941, more than 16,000 Americans were killed for taking part in "actions treasonous to the Government". Pershing's rule was long and bloody, as people protested the suspension of Congress and of elections almost daily. The worst was in March of 1949. Nearly a quarter of a million people marched through the District of Columbia towards the Executive Mansion, as the White House was renamed, in hopes of forcing Pershing to resign. Instead, Pershing ordered soldiers to open fire into the crowd, killing over a thousand and arrested as many. Pershing passed away from cancer in 1950.
2. General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Military (1950-1955)
 - The selection of General Eisenhower as the second Chairman of the COC came as a surprise to many. He had been critical of General Pershing's tactics and had urged Pershing to reintroduce elections as early as 1945. Eisenhower was selected as a compromise candidate between the hard-liner faction and the unifying faction. Eisenhower's first act of office was to arrest most of the hardliner faction and have them executed, following a military tribunal. In 1952, he announced plans for Congressional elections in 1954, followed by a Presidential election in 1956. With the country still facing a deep economic crisis, and stirrings of a revolution in Sonora, Eisenhower postponed the elections of 1954 to 1956, to happen concurrently with the Presidential election. Eisenhower was assassinated by a communist hand grenade during an inspection of anti-revolutionary military procedures in Texas.
3. Admiral Robert P. Briscoe (1955-1958)
 - A little known Admiral, Briscoe was the face of the unifying faction of the COC and served as Deputy Chairman under Eisenhower. He oversaw the first Congressional elections in 1956, which returned a Senate with 47 Democratic Socialists, 34 Conservatives, and 21 Independents and a House of Representatives with 197 Conservatives, 195 Democratic Socialists, and 46 Independents. A Presidential election was held in 1958, which saw farmer-turned-local agitator Orville Freeman elected as the first President of the Second Republic. Briscoe handed over power peacefully in on September 3, 1958.

I may finish this up at a later point.
