Looking forward to seeing what'll happen.

1867 seems to have a lot of in-universe AH potential with the wars that didn't break out and do on. Also does little for Mccellan's future standing when the British are willing to believe that this isn't some great plan, but sheer ineptitude on his part.

Looking like that they're trying desperately to thread the needle without both nations being pushed to breaking point. I can't imagine British opinion will be softened when the McClellan Administration's involvement in all of this comes out neither. I think you're missing the fourth footnote as...

I have a feeling that Bush is going to feel like the only sane man in the asylum at this rate. Good look into things and how the changes are impacting events in general.

Looks like Nixon's really applying the pressure to the primaries with this. Was the Wallace not being shot thing OTL?

An interesting premise and a fun start alright. Seeing Agnew become President is probably going to be an awful, terrible thing, that should make for a very good read.

Very good stuff here. I take it some of the Supreme Court were Adams' stooges?

Do have to wonder what'll happen to Butler after all this, considering he's, at best, turning a blind eye to what's going on in New York. Like, damn, the sheer amount of negligence on both sides is dwarfed only by the wishful thinking of the Fenians at this point.

Some familiar faces popping up already and some emphasis on how utterly stupid the work of the Plumbers actually was as well. Good stuff so far.

Another good amount of detail with things and the US election proceeding along nicely. Might be a good idea to mark the exact spots that were taken from the original FLAG as well, when they show.

A good start to things, although I'm not entirely sure how much has changed as of yet. Buzz Aldrin's entry certainly grabbed attention though. Armstrong was the second in this timeline, I take it?

Good overviews of the nations in the aftermath of the Civil War. Looks like Mexico might come out of this with some good hopes for the future, providing a complete disaster doesn't occur, anyhow. And I think this is one of the few timelines that I've seen where someone has blundered into peace...

There's a point with Florida. Would be easy to tar abolitionism with the brush of it being a foreign influence, which you just know some of the South are going to do. Although, I can't recall where the original quote about the proceeding troubles occurred, so it might have not been in relation...

It has been steadily building alright, although I am curious as to see what shape the troubles ahead will take. With the South turning on itself, what kind of force is going to leave America so marked because of it? And we've seen plenty of kindling being stacked alright, the question is what...

So, Henry Clay did die and a large coalition is forming for the express purpose of getting rid of Berrien. Certainly going to be something that feeds into his persecution complex alright. And is Caesarism going to be the go to word for dictatorship in America?
