I used color in my previous post, why isn't it showing up?

You didn't format it right. You have it (color=red)(/color)President Whateverface when it needs to be (color=red)President Whateverface(/color) (keep the square brackets of course)

Oh, ok. Thanks!

40. Ronald Reagan 1981-1989
41. George Bush 1989-1997
42. Ross Perot 1997-2001

Defeated Tickets:

1968: Robert Kennedy (D-MA), George Wallace (AIP-AL)
1972: Hubert Humphrey (D-MN)
1976: Bob Dole (R-KS)
1980: Robert Byrd (inc.) (D-WV), George McGovern (D-SD)
1984: Geraldine Ferraro (TD-NY), Howard Zinn (D-CA)
1988: Howard Zinn (D-CA), Lyndon LaRouche (TD-VA)
1992: Ross Perot (I-TX), Jesse Jackson (D-DC)
1996: Jay Danforth (R-MO)
2000: Ross Perot (inc.) (Rf-TX), Ralph Nader (D-CT)

In this world the watergate scandal is delayed for years, breaking just in tim to become an October surprise in the 1976 election. The dull Bob Dole was basically running as a third term of the still popular Nixon against a Democratic ticket seen as too right-wing by their base, this ticket being a desperate last minute compromise to prevent George Wallace (D-AL) from becoming the nominee. Nixon would never be charged with anything under the watergate scandal, and would eventually be pardoned by Ronald Reagan, but Dole was doomed. Henry Jackson wouldn't get the chance to fully implement his interventionist foreign policy, dying less than a year into his presidency in January 1978. The old southern democrat Robert Byrd would enter office, and say the n-word on live TV at least twice. Racial slurs would not be a successful method to improve the economy and neither would his supreme court nominees being rejected or Jackson's foreign adventures falling apart without his leadership. Byrd would refuse to cooperate with liberal northerners from his own party and would suffer the fate of John Tyler; banishment from the party, who would nominate the liberal George McGovern in 1980 to spite him. With the Democrats divided and loathed, Reagan would win in a landslide. 

The Democratic party would react to this by shifting so far left as to defy what would normally be considered a realistic political timeline and nominate California congressman, activist, and author Howard Zinn. Feeling their party hijacked by radicals and activists, Ted Kennedy would organize a run under the "True Democrat Party". Reagan is said to have laughed out loud at this news, but Kennedy had a brilliant plan that neither the president nor the crazy pinko Zinn could hope to outsmart. A plan that probably wouldn't have actually lead to him becoming president, just winning several states to make sure that the Democratic party would know not to nominate any socialists ever again. A plan he never got to execute because he was assassinated by an Ulster unionist businessman in August who attempted to pin the crime on a hobo. This businessman had been photographed shaking hands with VP nominee Ferraro, leading to a conspiracy that she was involved, thus tanking the TD party's campaign.

Howard Zinn would be nominated again, and many in both the party and the general public took solace in the idea he would be more elected and palatable this time. This idea turned out to be false as Zinn decided to campaign more aggressively than in '84, hoping that it would work better than last time. Instead he was seen as just as radical as before. The True Democrat party would be hijacked by LaRouche and his movement after the establishment Democrats had switched back to the Democratic party, trying in vain to take it back from Zinn & co. He would be that party's nominee for every election until 2004. 1988 would thus be another GOP landslide.

Ross Perot's Reform party would replace the Democrats as the rival to the GOP in the 1990s. In 2000 the Democrats would nominate Ralph Nader, the last Democratic nominee of note. "America's oldest and most forward thinking party" continues to nominate candidates and have a following among African-Americans and some strong liberals. Bernie Sanders would become a Democratic member of congress after suffering a falling out with the Reform party.

The Republicans are the Conservative party OTL, and in this TL the CA is the Conservative Party. Sure, the Bushes may be Moderate (Center-Rightists), but they aren't full blown Centrists like Clinton or Gore

What is the unity party and how did it win in 2000?

Economic mismanagement during the Eastwood administration leads to a recession during the mid 90's. The Unity Party is founded by Businessman Gary Sinise, and fields a decent 15% in 1996. Governor Cybil Sheppard uses her relative anonymity to her advantage as both major candidates are deemed as well meaning but incompetent. Governor Sheppard sweeps the debates and goes on to win 270 EVs.
