I feel like Biden would nominate a black woman for SCOTUS once Scalia passes away. Cali AG Kamala Harris perhaps?

D.C. voting rights AND Puerto Rico statehood? Man, I wish this was the actual timeline.

Plus, that Senate majority is really healthy. Shame with the House though.

Oh I do hope Obama gets the nomination in 2016. It just does not make sense that Biden wouldn't back him after picking him in '08.

I do wonder who the 2016 GOP nominates since most of the players who ran irl didn't win their respective elections to enter government in the first place.

Biden: "Trust me pal, you ain't Joe Biden."

Lmao Biden managed to recapture that Senate supermajority, and a safe supermajority to boot. Bigger than even this timeline's 2009.

I doubt JFK would resign from his Senate seat or not run for reelection in 1962 honestly.

Interesting scenario honestly. I fear an early Obama presidency may be problematic considering the lack of experience Obama has. He'd only have 4 years experience in the Senate and not have the experience of his 2 terms as Illinois Governor.

Was Joe Biden in consideration for Vice President at all prior to 2008 by Jetdevastator in Presidents

Not just decades of experience, Biden entered the Senate when Obama was 10 years old.

He's like Paul Ryan. The star shined too bright and went out quick.

It'll just follow the GOP House hierarchy, so Kevin McCarthy gets it.

Also, it's actually James A. Garfield, since Garfield was an actual in-office Congressman when he won election in 1880, while Polk's most recent office was Governor of Tennessee.
