I wish I could just cast an anti-vote for Andrew Jackson. That's all I really want out of this election.

I can't believe someone would stoop so low as to characterize Andrew Jackson as a bloodthirsty maniac.

I can't believe the Anti-Masons actually won. I'm so glad.

QuoProQuid posted:Though officials have blamed a wide variety of causes, from British interference to Freemason machinations, public blame has concentrated on the Democratic Party. So in the SA Timeline, have the Freemasons and anything even remotely related to them been destroyed so thoroughly that no one even thinks it could be them, or does everyone who blames Masons think Daniel Webster's election halted Ellmaker's righteous campaign prematurely?

Still feelin' the Birn. Plus, hey, we've only had two presidents with more than one term so far.

Ibogaine posted:DeWitt Clinton served twice in 1812 and 1820, and while his terms were not consecutive, he is still the only president with more than one term who's family name wasn't "Adams". That being said, let's make Birney president again before his VP dies. Huh, I somehow missed that we had our very own Grover Cleveland. Cool.

"Maybe anti-Jacksonian or something" is good enough for me. TAYLOR! *smashes telegraph*QuoProQuid posted:So, around this period the abolitionists kept running into a wall when it came to popular support. While the moderates and pro-slavery Democrats could point to the Constitution and the Founding Fathers to say that slavery was legal and justifiable, the abolitionists had no laws or provisions that they could use to support immediate abolition. Some abolitionists, like William Lloyd Garrison, decided that trying to argue within the constraints of the Constitution was fruitless, and took to advocating open rebellion to end the institution. Others, led by Lysander Spooner, decided that advocating disunion was harmful to the abolitionist cause as a whole and that they needed some legal argument to gain popular support. This is great. Squinting and peering at the Constitution until it says what you want is perennial.

That really sucks, sorry to hear it. Hope you didn't lose too much else besides the write-up. I'm in favor of #3, nothing wrong with waiting for quality writing. Whatever works best for you, though.

SlothfulCobra posted:What would be the capitol of the country in this alternate universe? Washington definitely wouldn't shell out his own personal swampland for these ingrates who dragged him out of retirement to give legitimacy to their new constitution only to not vote for him at all and send him back on his merry way. When you put it like that, it seems more likely he'd throw them on the Potomac.
