Conrad 2 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 As all of you are aware, President Forever + Primaries will be out on October 16, and it will include the primaries and then you follow to the general election. Does anyone have any ideas for primary scenarios; of course the interesting ones like 1976 GOP and Democratic, 1968 GOP and Democratic ect.... If it's easy to create scenarios with the new system, i'll create some real and alternative history primarys. P.S. I'll put a compition up seeing wheather anyone can get former Alaska Senator Mike Gravel as the 2008 Democratic nominee! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. November 1 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 One from kind of way back that might be interesting would be a 1936 Democratic battle between Huey Long and FDR, but I'm not all that sure how many states had primaries then, and how much of that scenario wouldn't be a fight for superdelegates. Has anyone thought about the 1972 Democratic primaries? A lot of externals happening there, with the Canuck letter w/ Muskie and other nefarious dirty tricks perpetrated by Nixon.

Mrdie 2 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 1964 Republican primaries would be rather interesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States...arty_nomination Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LiberalUK 4 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 I've often thought that a 2012 or 2016 would be interesting. You'd have to do a lot of research and you might even include people who are rising stars as state congressmen! Obviously you'd have to make some assumptions about future events.

progressivedem 2 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 1992 Democratic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. November 1 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 What about the 1988 primaries also? Democrats had Jesse Jackson (who won SC I believe), Gephardt, Gore, Dukakis, Joe Biden, Gary Hart, Paul Simon and probably a couple of others. GOP had Bush as a frontrunner, along with Jack Kemp, Pat "2000 lb. leg press" Robertson, Don Rumsfeld, Bob Dole, Pete DuPont, and Al "I'm in charge!" Haig. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SaskGuy 16 Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 What about the 2000 Republican primaries, if it isn't included with the 200 scenario? I'd like to try and win as McCain or someone else besides Bush. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
progressivedem 2 Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 I'd like to see if I could get Pat Buchanan to be the nominee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mrdie 2 Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 Pat "2000 lb. leg press" RobertsonIn a user-made 1988 scenario, I put in Pat Robertson, and I actually saw him win California a few times. And even Massachusests once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mrdie 2 Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Good God!Let's not forget the time I saw David Duke get 4% nationally.Prehaps 80soft can include charactor traits (That could be editable and scenario-specific) in a later version like flaws and qualities which has been suggested before.

extreme_right 3 Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Dunno, but it'll take some working out in any case. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Highland Call 0 Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Yes, it will, but I am already thinking of possibilitys for scenarios I can start on my British State and Canadian State of America governer when I work out the files! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
