I was guessing this was a TL where Roosevelt keeps Cuba and admits it as a state, but why is Quebec part of the US?

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

-

I was guessing this was a TL where Roosevelt keeps Cuba and admits it as a state, but why is Quebec part of the US?

If i remember correctly: around that time there was a conspiracy to admit Canadian territories to the U.S., so there's a bit of that in there too. Also, the main idea of the list was a more expansionist U.S. that had more Lat Am territories, not just Cuba, eventually admitted as states.

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.

Are you gonna finish this up or not?

President of the United States
Presidential Selection Process:Current Governor on Election Day of a state become President by order they entered the union
Vice Presidential Selection Process: The legislature of the next state in order chooses a Vice President. If the VP serves more than half the term of his/her President (i.e. POTUS dies), that state is then skipped for next President.

23. Richard J. Oglesby, Republican, Illinois, 1869 - 1873

After 12 years of pro-slavery administrations, President Oglesby tackles the issue of slavery. The result is the first American Civil War, starting in 1870 and ending in 1874. The U.S. Congress, during the war, passed a Constitutional Amendment that stripped any state that secedes from the Union from holding the presidency until 100 years after its re-admittance, thereby stripping the presidency and vice presidency from Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Virginia, South Carolina and North Carolina until 1974 at earliest.

Shafroth was against entering the war in Europe, believing it would hurt trade.
36.  L.B. Hana, Republican, North Dakota, 1917 - 1921
Hana convinces Congress to enter the war, albeit very late, helping the Allied Powers secure essentially a status quo victory.
37.  Peter Norbeck, Republican, South Dakota, 1921 - 1925
38. Joseph M. Dixon, Republican, Montana, 1925 - 1929

51. William R. Peterson Jr, Republican, New Hampshire, 1973 - 1977
52. Millis Godwin, Republican, Virginia, 1977 - 1981

Expected 63rd President of the United States: J.B. Pritzker, Democratic, Illinois

[GM Team Member and Senator WB]

1867: After the mess caused after Lincoln's assassination, Johnson's attempted subversion of both houses of congress, etc., an amendment is passed that designates the Vice President as a "caretaker" in the case of a President's death or resignation, and that a special election is held within 6 months of the death/resignation.

Sept. 19, 1881: President Garfield dies, several months after being shot. Chester A. Arthur becomes caretaker president.

Feb. 20, 1882: New York Governor Grover Cleveland beats Caretaker President Arthur, Governor St. John, and Fmr. Representative Butler.

1884: Cleveland is elected to a full term.

1884-1901 same as OTL

Sept. 14 1901: President McKinley is shot and killed. Vice President Roosevelt becomes caretaker.

Feb. 10, 1902: Roosevelt wins a full term, over Chief Judge of the NY Court of Appeals Parker, Anti-Roosevelt Republican Senator Hanna, Populist Democrat Representative Hearst, Socialist Union Leader Debs, and Preacher Swallow.

1902-1912: Same as OTL

1912: Roosevelt returns, but fails to win the Republican nomination. No one receives a majority in the electoral college, with Roosevelt, under his new Bull Moose Progressive Party, coming the closest, followed by Liberal Democrat Governor Woodrow Wilson (who walked out after Clark was nominated), Speaker Champ Clark, President Taft, and Debs, who narrowly carried Nevada.

Eventually, with protests gripping the nation and the government stagnant as one of its branches wasn't occupied, a re-run of the election was called, with the top 2, Roosevelt and Wilson, being the only names on the ballot. Roosevelt won handily, and was convinced to advocate for a new, parliamentary system of government. Although the idea was unpopular among the representatives and senators, it was an idea that became more and more popular with the people, who elected a majority progressive house in 1914. In 1915, the expansive amendment passed.

What if...The Constitution stated that presidents can only serve one six-year term, and the succeeding President must be from another state than his/her predecessor. The President and Vice President are elected as a ticket from the start (neither can be from the same state as the preceding President) so the 12th Amendment isn't necessary in this timeline.

*Butler/Stanton ran on an anti-slavery platform in 1872 (the slavery question doesn't explode for another decade since President Clay doesn't annex California--only Oregon and part of Texas). Butler was assasinated by pro-slavery activists, and this sparks the Civil War of 1873-1876.

**People's Democracy Party, a reformed version of the Democrats after their brand was tarnished in the Civil War and Reconstruction of the 1870s/1880s. Notably more populist than OTL Democrats

Early Socialist Regime

In 1880, the increasingly popular Albert Parsons (Socialist Labor) is elected the 20th president of the United States. His socialist backers enact a large government and economic reform, including the division of powers between the President (left) and Chancellor (right) elected by congress. The President is limited to one term at a time but the Chancellor can continue to be elected for unlimited terms. Congress would be elected every 4 years during the midterm of the Presidency.

20. Albert Parsons
(1881-1885)

Philip Van Patten
(1883-1885)

The Socialist Labor government begins passing more authoritarian measures to cement their power. Parsons ends up passing these measures under great pressure but his  reluctance still causes the party to depose him and his chosen successor, Eugene Debs.

21. Philip Van Patten
(1885-1889)

George W. Howard
(1885-1887)
James B. Weaver
(1887-1891)

Van Patten takes the presidency but his circle is shaken after their successor Chancellor, George W. Howard is replaced by the moderate Weaver in the midterm. Chancellor Weaver exerts his power to force the party to allow multiple member to stand for the presidency.

22. Albert Parsons
(1889-1893)

Parsons and Weaver promise to begin restoring liberty to the US but are limited by the power that Van Patten's circle still holds. They allow a limited multi-party system, with the SLP splitting into the Marxist Party, Labor Party (Socialist, Soft Authoritarian), Social Democrats, and National Socialists. The 4 parties are bound the the Worker's Coalition however, essentially ensuring that Labor will hold the presidency. The Republican Party is also allowed to return in limited capacity by espousing "Socialist Liberalism", which is really Social Liberalism.

James B. Weaver
SD-LP-MP-NS
(1891-1895)

23. George W. Howard
(1893-1897)

Thomas E. Watson
LP-MP
(1895-1899)

24. Charles H. Matchett
(1897-1901)

Thomas E. Watson
LP-SD
(1899-1903)

The Social Democrats provide the only viable coalition and force Watson to bring forward reforms for political liberalization. Matchett of course vetoes as party insiders planned but surprisingly a coalition in congress arises to overturn it and Watson allows this to prevent a VoNC. Citizens now have far greater political freedom than before in the regime. The Liberty Coalition (Libertarianism, Liberal Conservatism) is founded and becomes allies with the reinvigorated Republicans. The Social Democrats also see a brief surge in support.

25. Joseph F. Malloney
(1901-1905)

Eugene Debs
SD-LP-MP
(1903-1907)

26. William Jennings Bryan
(1905-1909)

The Social Democrats once again shake the nation by abandoning the Worker's Coalition Entirely and backing Republican Theodore Roosevelt as chancellor. Labor no longer holds the power to stop this and the 2 dissenting parties along with the Liberty Coalition form the Democratic Restoration Alliance to end the regime once and for all.

Theodore Roosevelt
RP-SD-LC
(1907-1911)

27. William Howard Taft
(1909-1913)
The Taft-Roosevelt government makes more sweeping reforms, to the point where Americans have more freedoms than they did before the regime. The Republicans and Liberty Coalition merge to form the Liberal Party.

Theodore Roosevelt
Lib-SD
(1911-1915)

28. Hiram Johnson
(1913-1917)

Woodrow Wilson
SD-Lib
(1915-1919)

29. Calvin Coolidge
(1917-1921)

Woodrow Wilson, amidst growing disagreements between the Social Democrats and Liberals, turns to the remaining Labor Party for support, ending the DRA.

Woodrow Wilson
SD-Lab
(1919-1923)

30. Robert LaFollette
(1921-1925)

Woodrow Wilson
SD
(1923-1927)

Remaining leftists form the New Democrats and begin attracting many more members due to both major parties taking a shift to the right.

31. Herbert Hoover
(1925-1929)

The Liberals rebrand as the Liberal-Conservatives, embracing the right, while the Social Democrats take on a more centrist platform.

Charles Curtis
LC
(1927-1931)

32. Al Smith
(1929-1933)

With an economic downturn, chaos in the elections ensues as anti-establishment movements grow. Curtis, looking to avoid the New Dems taking power, brashly allies with the long disregarded National Socialists.

Charles Curtis
LC-NS
(1931-1935)

33. Virgil Effinger
(1933-1937)

The National Socialists, now holding the presidency thanks to the chaos, influence the LCs to replace Curtis with Alf Landon, who truly acts as a palatable puppet for the fascist group.

Alf Landon
LC-NS
(1935-1939)

34. William D. Pelley
(1937-1941)

Virgil Effinger
NS
(1939-1943)

35. Franklin D. Roosevelt
(1941-1945)

Wendell Willkie
SD-ND-LC
(1943-1949)

America had another close call with authoritarianism, but ultimately the National Socialists were defeated before permanent damage could be done. This period also devastated the Liberal-Conservatives, who are now relegated to a minor rightist party. The major parties are now the New Democrats (Center-left) and the Social Democrats(Center-right). Liberalism will forever be remembered as an initially well intentioned ideology that brought the world fascism. Meanwhile, "Social Democracy" (now best described as compassionate conservatism) leads the global right. Both the SDP and NDP are expressly anti-communist and anti-fascist, trending towards the center. Roosevelt and Willkie also agree to end the parliamentary system and extend presidential term limits to 2 terms, with Roosevelt being reelected in 1944 and being the undisputed executive leader for the first time since the last century.
