Note: I'm really tired rn and want to do some other stuff, so I'll respond to more comments later
WT Character Ranking
18: Ezekiel (The Feral Abomination) - He's not consistently insufferable, but I don't particularly find his plot great either. Some of the ways he kept staying on the plane were dumb. Plus, it all led to him showing up in the finale when no one asked, and screwing Heather out of her hard-earned money. I can probably find some things I kind of like about Feral Zeke if I'm optimistic, such as his "Where's Waldo?" appearances, leading to Heather's cameo in Revenge of the Island, along with the ominous atmosphere and neat subtext he provides. But it doesn't change the fact that he is responsible for by far the most unfunny and insulting "joke" in the entire series. Overall, a huge downgrade from what I once considered a highly intriguing character
17: Sierra (Stalkerlicious) - Sierra is a character with some top tier highs intertwined with some of the most infuriating lows in the series. And while I'm not one to try to "cancel" her, I just simply don't like watching her harass Cody. It drags out for 20+ episodes before having any progression, and takes up a majority of her screen time. And the fact Cody is pretty helpless and that no one tries to do anything about it, certainly doesn't help. With that said, she gets better in the last few episodes (though even then not without a few hiccups) and has plenty to like about her. But sadly, her negatives outweigh her positives for me, especially when I look at how she's handled narratively
16: Leshawna (The Beatdown None of us Needed) - Her elimination episode sucks for her as well as the aftermath of it. Leshawna arguably had some reasons to be skeptical of Heather. But even then, the timing of her slapping Heather was extremely wack and made her look brain-dead, with her lack of regret afterwards not helping her case. She also feels less likable than her Island and Action counterparts in general. She still has some good moments, but she's largely disappointing compared to her first two seasons
15: Izzy (Wackiness Gone Wrong) - She has a few hilarious jokes here and there. But her character gets vastly reduced to being "random and quirky". It especially doesn't help that her elimination episode assassinates her character and makes her utterly hateable for no reason. Though Brainzilla was really cool and had some amusing dialect. I find her pretty interchangeable with Leshawna in that she has better highs, but her character assassination in her elimination episode is far worse. Again, very disappointing compared to her first two seasons though
14: DJ (The Hapless Tree-Hugger) - On one hand, the animal curse is terrible conceptually and tortures the guy for no reason, all the while making him unpleasant to watch (and occasionally pathetic). The fact he could've quit just makes how long he stays in the competition even more forced. I also can't decide whether the implications of his curse being a placebo effect make his plot more interesting, or even more aggravating over how long it drags out. But on the other hand, I can't bring myself to dislike him because of how bad I feel for him. And what's even more sad is that it only takes looking back at the Action special to realize the dude needed the money more than anyone else. Plus, credit where it's due, DJ's plot and general presence enhanced Aleheather really well with how they both tried to utilize his situation and fight for an alliance with him, even providing Alejandro with one of his coolest schemes yet. His friendship with Lindsay was also really sweet, and his concern for all the animals he hurt shows how wholesome he is as a person. In a way, I don't think DJ really got worse as much as he just got dealt a bad hand. Dude definitely deserved better
13: Blaineley (The Underutilized Drama Queen) - She played a good role in the aftermaths and served as a great foil to Geoff, on top of being surprisingly funny at times. Though her run in the competition is disappointing to say the least. On top of happening very late, she doesn't get utilized as much as she could've, and gets dumbed down immensely in her elimination episode. I think she had a surprising amount of potential as a unique drama-causing antagonist given the type of connections she had, and it’s a shame it wasn’t executed better. Her elimination speech was funny though
12: Gwen (The Fallen Hero) - She's not very relevant before the Love Triangle, and I don't care much about her friendship with Courtney. She also takes an unlikable turn during the Love Triangle, especially after the kiss gets exposed. Though she received ample consequences, and I don't believe she was victimized by the narrative in the slightest, despite the unfortunate direction taken with her. Plus, you can understand her motivations in hindsight, especially given Duncan kind of dragged her into the mess. She’s fine and has her good moments. And she’s overall pretty harmless. It’s just that this season does her the least favors as far as positives go, and she didn’t have much purpose beyond being a plot-device for the Love Triangle. But as a fellow drummer who also hates singing, she gets some extra brownie points
11: Harold (Chad Skills: The Afterglow) - He's still pretty funny per usual. Though his elimination is a little questionable with an especially cringy exit to boot. While I think his ego spiraling out of control was an interesting direction to take him, this alongside him quitting could've worked so much better had he been a finalist in Action. Thankfully he gets utilized far better in the aftermaths. And “Baby” absolutely slaps IMO. But I can only rank him so high this season
10: Bridgette (The Cool Surfer Chick) - I think she is quite better than a lot of people give her credit for. Putting aside her terrible and cringy apology song, which even then had the right intentions behind it, she has a nice plot of making an understandable mistake, feeling immensely bad and making up for it. Beyond that, she has some really cool moments that enhance her better qualities well, and I'd argue sticks out more consistently than her Island iteration. Her role in the aftermaths was also fun, and it especially helps that the aftermaths here are far superior to Action. Despite her lackluster game performance, Bridgette retains her likability and gets expanded on surprisingly well
9: Tyler (The Clumsy Jock with a Heart of Gold) - He has his funny moments even if his brand of humor doesn't generally appeal to me. His loyalty and patience to Lindsay is especially admirable, and their relationship after Lindsay finally remembers him is really cute. He also plays a relatively important role as Alejandro's catalyst for the Love Triangle drama, and we especially get to see what a great guy he is during said plot. On a side note, I really like that the writers weren't afraid to give him a more douchey side (mainly his antics with Cody). But despite this, he's still a good person at heart
8: Noah (The Robbed Raltable King) - Honestly, his humor has started to wear thin on me. With that said, he still has some especially great lines. I also really like his progression from Island of becoming somewhat less anti-social, and contributing to his team more. He even pulls some big-brain strats which I always appreciate. And his performance in his elimination episode was especially really good, as well as him and Owen's friendship. It's a shame he got screwed over by Team Amazon plot armor and a bullshit elimination to boot. Despite this, I enjoyed his time in World Tour
7: Courtney (The Temperamental Diva) - Ironically, I actually like her more in the second half of World Tour than the first. Even then, she still has her entertaining moments and has an AMAZING singing voice. But throughout the first half, she was more of a background character and wasn't all that memorable, and arguably doesn’t get held accountable enough for her actions in…Action, despite not actually doing anything to atone for them. Playing devil's advocate, Courtney was more low-key during her time on the Amazons and didn't go out of her way to be a pain for no reason, unlike Heather. But the fact that Gwen and Courtney's friendship just revolves around them hating Heather, is inadvertently detrimental to Heather's arc in a way. The one positive I can give her and Gwen's friendship is her using her acquired CIT skills to help heal Gwen's sunburnt hand. With that said, she's far more entertaining during the Love triangle. Her unbridled rage provides great comedy, and her and Duncan's mutual hate feud is even better here than in Action. Plus, even if I side with Duncan, I can sympathize with her to a degree. While you can argue the Love Triangle did not do a ton of favors in actually progressing her character, it's not like she was really changing for the better beforehand
6: Cody (Still a Nice Guy) - While more flawed than his Island iteration, he has more highs. I don't really mind his unlikable moments. But even putting that aside, he's just barely utilized for a good portion of his screen time, and there are a period of episodes in the middle of World Tour where he is barely relevant at all. On the plus side, I really liked how he tried to play the mediator to his team at times, and his sleazy antics provided for some very funny moments. I also felt terrible for him with anything involving Sierra. And he's especially really good in his last few episodes, whether it be his surprisingly good friendship with Heather, the insight we get into his outside life, and even his interactions with Sierra at times. He also hand-crafted a hot-air balloon out of a pile of scraps, and played an especially great role as one of Heather's helpers in the finale. I do wish him fully getting over Gwen was capitalized on better though. To sum it up, he has a very good beginning, a rougher middle, but gets especially really good in the last few episodes, which I think makes his time in World Tour worth it for the most part. He is also a good mix of being a floater, but making some brief attempts to strategize here and there (that, and the decent social game that goes with it), which I think makes him a pretty fitting 3rd placer
5: Lindsay (The Loveable Sweetheart) - Is it just me, or does Lindsay just feel even more likable than usual during her time in World Tour? She isn't super remarkable at first, but even then has a few funny jokes. Though as her time in the competition progresses, she becomes an absolute sweetheart who you just can't help but root for. She's also a surprisingly good team leader and ironically does a better job than in Action. Her friendship with DJ is adorable. Admittedly, the Tyler gag wasn't particularly funny or made sense. But her finally remembering him was a really cute moment. And afterwards, she really proves to care about him, which is most notable in the 3rd aftermath. Her performance in her elimination episode was especially amazing, and it's a shame she got screwed over the way she did. Easily the most wholesome character of the season, and by far the best pre-merger
4: Owen (The Ultimate Glow-up) - I get why some people don't like him going as far as he does for the third time. But I think as a result, it gets overlooked how much Owen substantially improves compared to his first two seasons. Not only is the writers' favoritism toward him toned down, but his actual character is also better. His gross-out humor is made less prevalent than in the first two seasons, in favor of focusing more on his goofy and childlike tendencies. And even the fart jokes he does have are utilized more creatively and just arguably funnier in general. His one-sided rivalry with "Al" is one of the funniest parts of the season, and he was one of the very few characters to actually get under his skin in his own way, albeit completely unintentionally. He also made for a great foil later on with his wholesome personality, as the season took a darker turn. And he came in absolutely clutch for his team in "Sweden Sour" in one of the coolest ways possible. Also, call my sense of humor twisted, but his "Babe Olympics" comment is hilarious. It also makes him more interesting and further establishes that despite being good-hearted, he isn’t the brightest tool in the shed and doesn't always appreciate the gravity behind certain actions (which was also prevalent in previous seasons). I can go into more depth on all his individual moments and instances he made me laugh. But overall, Owen is a fantastic presence and my favorite out of the comic reliefs this season. And I think he contributed to the season in a surprising amount of ways that only Owen can
3: Duncan (King Duncan’s Spicy Return) - I honestly couldn't care less about Duncan being a dick to Courtney, given the existence of Action. The one issue I have with him is how his actions affect Gwuncan as a couple, which proved to have a lot of potential to be a really good endgame relationship had they formed in a better way. But outside of that, Duncan is the GOAT this season. And honestly, I find him more likable and less flawed than in Action. He was one of the highlights of the first episode, from his ending line in "Come Fly With Us", to his general distaste for singing which provided some comedic moments (and is actually something I relate to personally). He quit the competition with style, then returned and ignited one of the most compelling conflicts in the series, where each side had understandable motivations for their actions. This is helped by the fact we get to see the perspective of multiple other characters on the situation, fleshing out their personal values. The Love Triangle also did wonders in the gameplay-department as we saw multiple people try to strategize and twist the situation in their favor. Sure, a lot of characters involved are not the nicest people in the world. But I think that's what makes World Tour so appealing. Sometimes, I like watching characters be selfish assholes, especially in a competition-driven setting. And unlike the Island finale or a lot of the Gwent drama, it's done in a way that made logical sense and didn’t reek of favoritism on any sides. While Duncan's nice side is less prevalent than before, he remains just as charming and entertaining as ever, and he still has some nice interactions with people he genuinely cares about. His return also helps deviate from the first half of World Tour which mainly consisted of comic relief characters and Alejandro cleverly eliminating characters one-by-one. Their rivalry is engaging, has funny moments, and is arguably one of the most unique conflicts in the series. And while Alejandro was a step ahead and ultimately came out on top, you still get the sense that Duncan was one of the very few competitors to actually challenge him. Individually, he also pulled some really cool feats in challenges and was at some of his most strategically involved here. To make a longer story short, the dude was able to go from being at high risk of elimination, to making it to the final 5 and being the closest Alejandro had to an equal partner (besides Heather). Then there’s also his mutual hate-feud with Courtney which is even funnier and less flawed here than in Action. Plus, it just so happens that both of these interactions were integrated with each-other really well and even enhanced the Aleheather plotline. There is not a single dull moment with Duncan this season. And while there is room for improvement, I think Duncan’s return made World Tour far better
2: Alejandro (The Final Boss of Gen One) - Villains are not usually a strong suit in Total Drama. Though above them all stands Alejandro. This guy is an amalgamation of virtually every quality from past villains, but better. To put it simply, his approach is multifaceted, unpredictable, and really well-executed. But at the same time, he isn't completely perfect, from his feelings for Heather holding him back, his aversion to being called "Al", and his schemes not always hitting the mark (episode 23 being a prime example). His amazing gameplay is complemented well with him being arguably the most pragmatic out of all the villains, which makes him likable despite his heinous actions. And his backstory with his brother adds a layer of sympathy to him (even if it was brought up kind of awkwardly). Unfortunately, his schemes with Bridgette and Leshawna were poorly written on his end, and in Leshawna's case, dragged her down significantly. But beyond that, he's just such a fun antagonist to watch. And regardless of how much you actually care about strategy in TD, you get legitimately invested in his gameplay. He takes every approach into consideration instead of being a one-trick pony, and he rarely relies on luck to get by despite some very occasional lucky breaks. But at the same time, he's not too boring either and has his share of funny moments. This is most noteworthy with his relationship with Heather, which is universally loved for good reason. Despite being the main antagonist, I am completely fine with Alejandro being a finalist, and I would go as far as to say the dude is a legitimately deserving winner. And I think his position as a finalist really capitalizes well on the narrative World Tour had that being nice doesn't always get you the furthest, and sometimes you have to play dirtier to reach a goal
1: Heather (The Legacy of a Queen Bee) - With that said, Heather winning is just simply better from a narrative standpoint. She has an amazing transition from being a villain to an anti-hero, creating for a great subtle redemption that humanizes her but doesn't completely deviate from her original personality. Though it's not like she was solely less mean for ulterior motives involving the game either, as she had some altruistically kind moments and even tried to help some people with their personal issues. Her friendship with Cody is surprisingly cute, and I get the sense that she genuinely cared about him to a degree. And in a way, her arc also comes full-circle in the form of Harold and Cody being her helpers. Not only this, but she vastly improves her gameplay. She actually tries to treat her allies nicely this time, makes more genuine attempts to stay in the game rather than just relying on luck, and performs especially well in challenges. But above all else, there are very few competitors with as much drive and determination as her, which wound up being the biggest factor in why she got as far as she did despite her circumstances. Granted, her first half of World Tour was rough and leaves a lot to be desired. She was especially unlikable in a bad way throughout episodes 4 and 8, and in a way that did her no favors to her position on the team. But she gets far better in the second half, having arguably one of the best performances in the series. And despite Alejandro being a consistently better game-player, Heather wound up being the only one able to take him down, and through the same trick he used on many others, making his downfall incredibly juicy and poetic. Speaking of which, Aleheather in general is an amazing love-hate relationship with many funny moments, and one of the most interesting with how much their interactions get intertwined with their strategic gameplay. Plus, there is arguably some really cool subtext and parallels behind their plot. Regardless of how you feel about other aspects of World Tour, I feel like the writers put a ton of their eggs into Aleheather, and I think it paid off immensely. Beyond this, Heather just has a ton of everything in what makes a Total Drama character good, from entertainment-value, funny moments, and fantastic interactions with others. Despite her flaws, she is consistently enjoyable and has some of the best highs in the series. Sadly, Feral Zeke came in and ruined everything. But it doesn’t sour how good everything else leading up to it was

“We must all hang together or we shall all hang separately.”
Thus quipped Benjamin Franklin as the American colonies joined against the tyranny of George III, the phrase hangs heavy in the imaginations of today’s political opposition. Laden with fears of violence, Chairman Osro Cobb of the Progressive-Federalist National Committee announced the cancellation of the party’s presidential primaries and the formal acquiescence of the party to the Committee for the Preservation of the Republic’s call for a joint presidential nominating convention with the American Liberty League. Yet, with the organization’s President Thomas Schall, once seen as the nearly prohibitive favorite for the nomination, dying in an unforeseen car accident and populist contender Eduardo Chibas taking his own life on live radio, the attempt to unite the opposition must find a candidate able to carry both banners in the face of Philip La Follette’s campaign for a third term.
​
Clare Boothe Luce waves to her supporters.
Major Candidates:
The following candidates are seen as frontrunners for the nomination.
Clare Boothe Luce: 49 year old Clare Boothe Luce of Connecticut rose to prominence as Henry Luce’s scandal-ridden yet massively popular First Lady, whose charisma would lead to a popular joke that every Luce voter wished they had voted for Clare despite widely known allegations of mutual marital infidelity. Marrying Henry after divorcing her first husband and entering high society as the author of an all-female play, Luce would become First Lady at the young age of 38 and soon emerge as a face of the American home front amidst the Third Pacific War. Describing the nation as having become a “dictatorial bumbledom,” Luce has echoed the anti-New State ethos of the party and is seen as the candidate of establishment conservatives. Criticizing the very slogan of President La Follette, she has argued that the United States cannot “win the peace” as it has not truly won the war until the defeat of international communism. Clare has supported the Zionist project in Alaska, a unified military command to replace the Department of Peace, and the creation of a defense pact among American allies in the Pacific as the centerpiece of an aggressively interventionist foreign policy declaring “if we are no longer willing to fight for it, our Christian democracy is finished." Yet, Luce has also opposed the creation of a stronger international United Nations to replace the powerless Parliament of Nations.
Driven to Catholicism in 1946 following the death of her daughter, even as her ex-president husband gallivanted about with a girlfriend a thousand miles from his wife’s baptism, Luce has emerged as a changed woman, reportedly abandoning her affairs and entering a career in electoral politics with her 1946 election to the Senate. Though Aaron Burr Houston maintained a private devotion to the Church of Rome, Clare has taken her faith with a zeal heretofore unseen in American politics, using the Senate as a pulpit to preach against “materialism” and a spiritual decline as the root of both communism and fascism, slyly suggesting that the rise of the Pentecostal, Immannuelite, and Mormon faiths has come hand-in-hand with the nation’s fascist surge as she has publicly wished that “the whole world would be Catholic.” Despite defenses from Presbyterian former President Luce, Clare’s faith has weakened her amongst convention delegates fearing the alienation of firmly Protestant voters. Yet her charm, wealth, and ability to attract millions in funding from backers such as Henry Ford II while winning key endorsements such as that of Richard Nixon has catapulted her to the front of the field.
W. Lee O’Daniel: 62 year old Senator W. Lee O’Daniel, better known as Pappy, rose to prominence in his late 20s as an architect of domestic policy during Aaron Burr Houston’s third term, being largely credited with the introduction of an old age pension system funded by a consumption tax. After making his way to the fore of Texas politics on his own through the integration of musical numbers and a widely popular radio show with his political antics, O’Daniel would turn from an upset gubernatorial defeat in the 1938 midterms to organizing Aaron Burr Houston’s campaign for a fourth term in the White House as the nation’s last hope against Charles Lindbergh. Accused by critics of puppeteering a dementia ridden 86 year old out of his own lust for power, O’Daniel would serve as Secretary of the Treasury for a year before being unceremoniously removed from the cabinet by Henry Luce for his critique of the American attack on Pearl Harbor and opposition to the draft, leaving him in political isolation as the Texan distinguished himself by demanding the execution of striking laborers as crucial to the war effort over his radio show.
A steadfast isolationist, O’Daniel’s foreign policy views have made him a favorite among Liberty League libertarians. Depicting himself as nearly as conservative as Luce on domestic issues with an isolationist foreign policy able to appeal to the Midwest, O’Daniel has emphasized ties to the legendary ABH and anti-alcohol views he claims can over the rural South. O’Daniel has also sought to use Luce’s Catholicism into an issue, seeking the support of Ben Gitlow through their shared membership in the Evangelical Christian Right. Yet, O’Daniel has been seen as the least committed among the candidates to the Committee’s pro-democracy ideals, while others question his fitness for office based on his eccentric manners as a cabinet Secretary and Senator, with Eleanor B. Roosevelt’s 1936 running mate Dan Moody remarking that “Pappy is as lost at the Treasury as I would be in a circus trapeze.”
Lucius D. Clay: A distant relative of former President Henry Clay, 54 year old General of the Army turned banker Lucius D. Clay of Georgia has been the subject of a draft movement seeking to secure a candidate with the allure of a war hero after an attack on right wing generals such as Harold George, “some of whom are my own classmates,” accusing them of leading the party astray with the nomination of the ultra-conservative Benjamin Gitlow. Clay has portrayed himself as the candidate of order, supporting, as the others do, the prosecution of Blackshirts and the freeing of prosecuted opposition politicians. However, Clay, a former administrator of Lindbergh-era public works programs, is the only candidate to stop short of supporting the abolition of the New State, with backers instead focusing on the renowned administrative talent that led Douglas MacArthur to quip that Clay “could run General Motors or General Bradley’s army.” Despite his reticence to campaign at the convention, Clay’s moderation, vague platform, connections, and war hero status have won over a significant segment of delegates.
John Sampson Cooper: Named for martyred Admiral William T. Sampson not long after the First Pacific War dramatically ended with the Second Battle of Hawai’i, 50 year old Kentucky Senator John Sampson Cooper has led an underdog campaign of moderate liberals led by young activists Mark Hatfield and Chuck Mathias and Tannenbaum territorial delegate Jacob Javits. Returning home from Yale to find his father on his deathbed and his beloved Pulaski County burned to the ground amidst the Revolution, Cooper would be elected to county leadership at age 24, famously responding to a legal requirement that he evict the impoverished by personally paying their debts, earning the moniker “the poor man’s judge” as he emerged as a major figure in post-Revolutionary reconciliation in Kentucky. Returning home once more from service as a military attache in the Third Pacific War, Cooper would oust incumbent Farmer-Laborite Jerry Spencer in a 1944 upset, delaying taking his seat to serve as a legal advisor to hundreds of thousands of displaced Indonesians before emerging as a Senate leader in bringing the United States closer to India and other nations newly liberated from colonialism.
While eschewing the isolationism of O’Daniel, Cooper has demonstrated a far more relaxed stand on foreign policy than Luce, opposing aggressive anti-communism abroad while depicting the United States as a great mediator of peace in situations such as the violence in Palestine or partition of India. The reported favorite of Fulgencio Batista despite Cooper’s criticism of Batista as insufficiently committed to democracy, the Kentuckian has managed to maintain a widespread popularity with labor that has led many to speculate that Cooper would be the only candidate able to win the endorsement of organized labor and an imprisoned John L. Lewis. Lacking the celebrity draw of Senator Luce, Cooper has countered with a far more detailed platform, calling for the opening of American borders to the world’s refugees, massively increased federal aid to education, and, in stances that have left him anathema to many party conservatives, support for universal health insurance, coal subsidies, and public housing. A self admitted “truly terrible public speaker," Cooper’s political independence has won him the support of Will Rogers Jr. and made him a favorite of the modern liberal wing of the Liberty League.
​
Roy Acuff strikes up the band.
Minor Candidates:
The following have significant support, but lag behind the frontrunner candidates.
Luis A. Ferre: Among the most grim results of the 1948 elections emerged from the Caribbean, where states once considered the most loyally anti-Farmer-Labor in America crossed the aisle for the first time in history. With strategists seeing the path to the presidency running through the island states, many among the electorally minded have flocked to 48 year old Puerto Rico Senator Luis A. Ferre, publisher of the nation’s largest Spanish language newspaper, El Nuevo Dia. A classically trained pianist who has focused his senatorial career on securing funding for the arts, Ferre has referred to the United States as the “moral summit of the world,” while aligning himself in the middle on economic policy, calling for “addressing the inequalities of society” by selling off public land at a low price and supporting federal public housing with an emphasis on rural revitalization, in addition to a call for a 4% Christmas bonus on the grounds of the Jesus Amendment.
James A. Rhodes: "Every time I take a position on an issue, I lose two percent of the people. If I do that 50 times, I have everybody mad at me," the quip encapsulates the philosophy of 43 year old Ohio Governor James A. “Jim” Rhodes and his backers. Emerging as the favorite of many convention delegates who have argued that the best path forward for a united campaign is a steadfast focus on bread and butter issues, Rhodes has remarked that “there are only three issues in this campaign: jobs, jobs, and jobs,” and has argued that any anti-La Follette campaign must focus on people’s lives and the economy, not vague notions of democracy and American ideals. Born in the hills of Appalachia, Rhodes would be forced out of college after failing every class, only to work his way into the Mayoralty of Columbus, before unexpectedly catapulting himself to the Ohio Governorship before the age of 40, where he has governed with a moderate conservatism focused on local issues such as water rights and a program to "put a college education within 25 miles of every boy and girl” that has been praised as a national model.
Roy Acuff: 49 year old Roy Acuff of Tennessee was christened “The King of Country Music” for smash hits such as Wabash Cannonball, leading fellow musician Hank Williams to quip “book him and you don’t worry about crowds…for drawing power in the South, it’s Roy Acuff, then God.” Yet, after a rumor that Governor Buford Elington had labeled his music “disgraceful,” Acuff would embrace the label “king of the Hillbillies” in the 1948 election cycle to trade his acoustic throne for the Governor’s chair. Declaring that “any business must be put on a business plan, and so must a state government,” Acuff has cut the budget while requiring the Ten Commandments to be posted in government buildings, increasing state pensions, instituting a free school textbook program, cooperating with the La Follette Administration on the hydroelectric Tennessee Valley Authority, and has controversially called for additional restrictions on firearm ownership. Widely considered a possible frontrunner for his celebrity status if a primary were to have been held, Acuff has supported O’Daniel at the convention, yet has evasively refused to disavow a draft movement arising from his pro-union sympathies that many suspect could bring Fulgencio Batista into the fold alongside John L. Lewis, Jimmy Hoffa, and the opposition Farmer-Laborites.
Henry S. Breckinridge: The only member of the Liberty League at the fore of presidential consideration, 66 year old New York Congressman Henry Skillman Breckinridge ran alongside Al Capone in 1936 in the campaign that doomed the Commonwealth alliance, but has reinvented his career since by working to ally Federalist and Liberty League causes against La Follette and serving as the organization’s House leader. Advocating a heavily internationalist vision in line somewhere between that of Cooper and Luce, Breckinridge’s commitment to small government classical liberalism and a strict construction of the constitution has made him the favorite of Liberty League loyalists and some party conservatives. However, it is considered unlikely for a Liberty League member to win outright due to Progressive-Federalists comprising a majority of convention delegates.
Eleanor Butler Roosevelt: 63 year old former President Eleanor Butler Roosevelt was promoted for the nomination for months by her former counsel turned the “voice of impeachment,” Richard Nixon, who has noted that her re-election would have stopped the rise of fascism in its tracks. However, content with retirement, the writing of her memoirs, and the promotion of Nixon’s career, Roosevelt has categorically refused to seek the presidency. Nonetheless, she is expected to receive votes on the convention’s opening ballot from admirers.
​
Richard Nixon with the California delegation.
The Convention:
District of Columbia police scattered the Immanuelites, holding fliers declaring that their savior had prophesied nuclear armageddon on October 3rd of 1952, but they did not touch the Blackshirts. Ominously, they milled about in the blocks surrounding the convention, brandishing small arms and chants for Phil, as, within, the national convention of the Committee for the Preservation of the Republic proceeded without the pomp and circumstance conventions thrive in, a veil of despair lying over the nearly two thousand delegates in the plaza as they longed from their windows for days past. Further, a rule requiring two thirds of the convention for nomination, instituted by Liberty Leaguers fearful of a tyranny of the majority, would practically guarantee balloting periods stretching long into the night.
The first ballot would open with a surprise, as Roy Acuff rose to rebuff the acolytes of Fulgencio Batista. Pointing to the imprisoned Cuba Governor’s permissive policies towards gambling and prostitution, Acuff would draw a firm line between his pro-labor Christian conservatism and the “moral and political corruption” of Governor Batista. With the vociferousness of the singer’s vituperations and an unexpected willingness to attack Batista personally where other candidates stood largely silent, Acuff would find himself winning extensive support. With the rise of Roy Acuff splintering Pappy O’Daniel’s support, the former Secretary of the Treasury would find himself performing unexpectedly weakly, the beginning of a hemorrhage that would see his support move to Acuff in the first several rounds of balloting. Meanwhile, Clare Boothe Luce would take a lead out of the gate, but soon find that the collapse of Pappy O'Daniel's campaign following a wholesale defection to Acuff would lead other O'Daniel backers to rally behind Clay as an electable alternative. With Luce's lead dwindling, Cooper would swiftly capture her momentum, driving her to second place as a draft movement for Eleanor Butler Roosevelt peeled off dozens more Luce votes.

With 1,310 delegates necessary to win the nomination, another half dozen rounds of balloting would bring no candidate anywhere near the necessary supermajority. Luce delegates would fiercely resist the rise of Lucius D. Clay, with Luce's manager Walter Judd and friend Anna Chennault illicitly spreading pamphlets accusing the General of being a plant of the regime to take control of the opposition. Yet, with his eyes on leading a reformed State Department, Pappy O'Daniel would stand back as his collapsing campaign gave its strength to Lucius D. Clay. Flatlining after several ballots with delegates consternated at the unwillingness of their chieftain to actively rally them, Roy Acuff's support would soon begin to bolt to Cooper and Clay, leaving Cooper to peak on the 11th ballot. However, a core of loyalist Acuff delegates would hold back the Kentuckian's momentum, as Lucius D. Clay covered ever closer to a majority. Yet, Clay would find himself having exhausted every avenue, with Acuff delegates reluctant to switch, and the block of Cooper and Luceites unwilling to come to the table. Further, a movement would begin to circumvent the squabbles of the major candidates and nominate General Curtis LeMay, the young face of the Pacific War. Yet, LeMay's role in the atomic bombings of millions of Japanese civilians would leave Senator Will Rogers Jr. to implore the convention not to proceed with the General as a compromise.

The Convention would lock itself in deadlock as three ballots passed. The night as black as the shirts of the threatening bystanders, it would become clear that, with neither's supporters willing to concede to the other, neither Clay nor Luce would prevail. From Haitian Senator Elie Lescot to Convention Chair S.I. Hayakawa and General Claire Chennault, delegates would attempt to draft a compromise. On friendly terms with Luce and Clay alike, Chennault would nearly prevail, yet his dogged loyalty to the Liberalism of his youth would hold back his chances. The Liberals could veto a candidate, but they could never nominate one. Yet, Chennault would telegraph his wife Anna with a suggestion, a protege of his whose famed dogfights over the Pacific and haughty demeanor had bought him fame. A protege drummed out of his beloved Air Force for opposing the "Bomber Mafia" consensus of Curtis LeMay only to purchase a baseball team. A protege who survived eight airplaine crashes. A protege who had once been an aid to Hugh S. Johnson and who counts Charles Lindbergh among his friends, but who donated to the re-election campaign of "the voice of impeachment," Representative Nixon. A protege married to the heir to the Pulitzer fortune and media empire. A protege by the name of Elwood R. Quesada, but better known to friend and foe alike as "Pete." Bankers Fred Akers and George Garrett, friends of the dashing commander, would throw themselves in pre-organizing on his behalf, hiring demonstrators to spark what seemed an almost spontaneous movement.
Kate Quesada, once the young Kate Pulitzer who had defied high society to marry a hot tempered Major League Baseball player turned fighter pilot, would awake her husband before dawn to inform him that Professor Chennault from his Academy days had entered his name to be nominated for President of the United States, with delegate Milton Eisenhower casting the first vote. In the Convention's recess between the 16th and 17th ballots, Anna would go about printing hundreds of "Can't Beat Pete!" buttons, while working behind the scenes among those such as the Ohio delegation, long loyal to Jim Rhodes, winning second choice. Most importantly, she would win over Richard Nixon among the Luce delegates and Jimmie Davis among the supporters of Clay, portraying Quesada as capturing the party platform while holding the war hero's mystique. Taking things a step further, Chennault would pitch the ex-General as a moderate, a liberal, and a conservative at variance, refusing to let policy distract her from her central argument: the 48-year-old Quesada could win, Clay and Luce had proven they couldn't. The 18th ballot would see the deadlock broken as hundreds of supporters abandoned Luce and Clay alike for Quesada, by the 19th, Clay and Luce themselves would step back from their campaigns. With Luce admiring tales of Quesada's pre-flight rosaries and Clay on friendly terms, both would accept the compromise as supporters of the minor candidates such as Ferre and Rhodes rallied behind him. On the 20th ballot, with other candidates excepting Cooper falling behind Quesada, he would win the nomination, narrowly surpassing the 2/3 requirement before a motion to declare his nomination unanimous on the 21st ballot.

Louisiana Governor and former country musician Jimmie Davis, famous for "You Are My Sunshine," would come in third to S.I. Hayakawa, with California Senator Will Rogers a narrow second. Yet, many would worry that Hayakawa's Japanese ancestry would risk racist attacks so soon after the Third Pacific War, even as Americans reconciled with the now fallen sun across the ocean. Hayakawa's chances would be further weakened with the remark that “I would encourage insurrection in those poor crushed countries that have been under tyranny all these years.” Further, the death of Rogers' father by a fascist bomb and his military service would be contrasted with Davis's lack of either to paint Rogers as more compatible with the theme of a heroic ticket to rescue the nation from fascism. With the eccentric linguist's support set back, Hayakawa would endorse Rogers in the name of party unity, securing the Senator a third ballot victory despite significant support for Jimmie Davis across the South. Thus, at four o'clock in the morning on August 14th of 1952, the Committee for the Preservation of the Republic would adjourn its first national convention.
Senator Will Rogers Jr. of California, Cincinnatus nominee for the Vice Presidency.

​
A DC native, Pete Quesada would be in the convention hall at ten as it convened anew, meeting kingmakers and strutting through mobs of delegates as the party considered a series of resolutions on names. With a breakaway group led by legal Chairman Frank Chodorov suing the merger faction of the Liberty League, affiliated delegates would vote near unanimously to drop the title in favor of christening themselves anew with the old moniker of Liberal. Further, in an attempt to stress the status of the Preservationist nominee as a military hero, the convention would vote to adopt for its presidential ticket, and presidential ticket only, the partisan line of "Cincinnatus," after the New Order of Cincinnatus operating among oppositionists in Washington state and Alabama, and, of course, the Roman statesman who transformed his swords into plowshares after a brief tenure as leader of his republic in a time of crisis. With every delegate declared a member, the New Order of Cincinnatus would go national as the campaign vehicle of the Quesada and Rogers ticket.
A narrower vote would approve the use of the name "Law Preservation Party" for those candidates running without Progressive or Liberal affiliation.
Further, the party would approve a short platform, rejecting a suggestion from Quesada to enshrine an age limit for holding office while vowing:

• First and foremost, to recognize no political principle other than the Constitution of the country, the Union of the states, and the enforcement of the law.
  • To bring about a renaissance in politics and to promote a Spartan-like devotion to honesty, cleanliness, efficiency, and economy in government.
  • To clean out graft, corruption, and hypocrisy in our public offices.
  • To modernize state, county, and local government and to eliminate all duplicating phases thereof.
  • To eliminate waste in governmental machinery and to work for a substantial reduction in the tax burden the average taxpayer is forced to bear.

​
Elwood R. \"Pete\" Quesada in flight gear after a demonstration of his aeronautical prowess to eager delegates.
With the end of procedural matters, Pete Quesada would rise to the stage for the first time, a handful of cheers greeting him. Omar Bradley once wrote that the dashing young Air Force General "could have passed for a prototype of the hot pilot, with his shiny green trousers, broad easy smile, and crumpled yet jaunty hat, but he was a brilliant, hard, and daring air-support commander on the ground," and his youthful smile upheld that characterization today, yet his face would soon turn grave as he began.
“I think a military officer, regardless of what service he’s in, is improved if he handles unusual assignments...I look forward to being assigned by the American people to the White House! I believe every person has been put on this Earth for just one purpose—to serve his fellow man. It doesn’t matter how he does this. He can build a bridge, paint a picture, invent a labor-saving gadget, or run a gas station. The point is, he should try to leave the Earth a better place than he found it. If he does, his life will have been worthwhile. If he doesn’t do what he can within his own limitations, he is destined to be unhappy.” Comparing himself to his longtime friend Lindbergh, Quesada would continue with a chuckle, saying that “I'll have something to bounce off Lindy whenever he boasts too much about that little term he served.”
Promising without elaboration to defend “integrity, Americanism, fiscal responsibility, and courage,” Quesada would speak on foreign policy, declaring that the United States had won a war on tyranny, and that “Korea remembers. Indonesia remembers. The Philippines remember..to abandon them is to tell the Free World that they cannot depend on the United States.” Further, he would note that while "“I abhor war," he stands firm in a belief that "we can maintain peace only through strength.”
Moving to domestic matters, Quesada would claim that “a government is the servant, not the master,” declaring that “Fascism has been wasted effort...middle class, sincere decent people, need to regain the influence they’ve lost over the past decades," while arguing that “there are too many intellectuals in government who have no experience in management in which the majority’s will is to be followed.” Quesada would accuse the government of being led by “men of limited imagination" and “those who postponed making decisions," promising to “weed out the incapable and inefficient." Then, in a tacit move of comparison between the man the convention styled as a latter day Cincinnatus and the incumbent dynamo who had energized so many Blackshirts, Quesada would declare that "the more I see the more I realize there is a difference between men.”
Quesada would turn to the party's past failures and shock many delegates by placing them directly at the feet of the opposition itself, claiming that "an examination of these failures reveals contributory negligence on the part of ourselves, discord and a lack of confidence in our forces.” The convention looked on with bated breath as Pete Quesada, infuriated by the fear among the delegates assembled, raised his voice for the shouted words that have entered immortality as the most famous words of his campaign, screaming from his microphone into millions of American homes and newspaper headlines that:
"Our whole country is stopped by a tinpot dictator that tossed a few dozen of us into jail! Follow the light which leads to truth and we will prevail, history will show we saved the day...
THE ONLY THING WE HAVE TO FEAR IS FEAR ITSELF!"

🔗Durable 20 ft Straight Aluminum Ladder with Twist-Proof Performance

​
https://preview.redd.it/5p8ra2iz443d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=73b35b1b6e63a20b8a326bce50a55d1107830eee
Using this trusty Werner 20-footer in my everyday tasks has become a breeze. The extra heavy duty I-beam rails provide me with that extra level of sturdiness I need to stay safe while I'm up high. The Traction-Tred deeply serrated aluminum round rungs were a game-changer, giving me plenty of grip even when I'm wearing my work boots.
However, I noticed that the Mar-resistant end caps left a little to be desired, as they got chipped during transport and storage. Nonetheless, the Twist-Proof performance of the Alflo rung joint made up for it, offering me some peace of mind while I'm working up high. Overall, this aluminum ladder has become an essential part of my daily life and work routine.

🔗Aluminum Multi-Position Ladder with Built-In Tool Storage and Customizable Heights

​
https://preview.redd.it/7ubx1hrz443d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=37e89f10b182765017e42e9dca95b6cf90f0b3df
The 18ft Gorilla Ladders reach MPXA Aluminum Multi-Position ladder is like a trusty companion in your toolbag. Its lightweight aluminum design is as easy to carry around as a book. The first thing you notice about this ladder is its durability - it can hold up to a whopping 300lbs! The oversized hinges help keep you steady while climbing by reducing flex and sway, which is something I really appreciated.
The Gorilla Grip locks are a standout feature, they lock and unlock quickly and easily, and they're tougher than a superhero. The tool storage solutions built into the ladder are perfect for keeping your workspace organized and clutter-free. But here's the kicker - this ladder isn't just for climbing. It's like a chameleon, transforming into multiple positions such as an extension ladder, a double-sided twin stepladder, a 90-degree wall ladder, a stairway stepladder, and even two scaffold bases (if you buy the rail brackets accessory).
The Gorilla Ladders ladder is made to be smart and tough, and it shows in every feature. It's the perfect companion for your DIY projects, making the task at hand more manageable and safer.

🔗Foldable 20.3FT Telescopic Ladder with Detachable Hook - Premium Quality and EN131 Certified

​
https://preview.redd.it/wn02ns20543d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=47e88f8df5f2c11c05267d537a5a89bc089cc8b4
After using the Autofather 6.2m aluminum telescopic ladder for a few weeks, I must say I'm quite impressed with how convenient it is to use. The foldable design makes it easy to carry around and store, which is a major plus for those with limited space. The anodized aluminum finish gives it a sleek look and it's lightweight enough to carry with just one hand.
One of the things that stood out for me was the detachable hook. It's a game-changer when it comes to setting up the ladder near a pipe with a diameter of less than 7cm. However, I did notice that the hook cannot be hung on larger pipes, which may be a minor inconvenience for some users.
When it comes to safety, the anti-slip rubber feet and the ladder's maximum load capacity of 330lb are great features. I also appreciate the grip handle, which makes carrying the ladder much easier. Overall, this telescopic ladder is a versatile tool that's perfect for both indoor and outdoor tasks. Whether you're cleaning windows or reaching high shelves, it's a reliable ladder to have on hand.

🔗Gorilla 19 ft. Aluminum Multi-Position Ladder with Project Bucket and Wheels

​
https://preview.redd.it/tfnaojk0543d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a2a16ca55dd4cd52cca34f23738fafc5c6f863b7
Forget your typical ladders - the Gorilla Ladders 19 ft. Reach MPXT Aluminum Multi-Position Ladder is a game-changer. In my experience, what stood out the most was the convenience it provided. The built-in project bucket was a lifesaver, allowing me to keep all my tools and hardware within reach while I climbed.
The lightweight aluminum design also made a huge difference. It's easy to carry around and transport from one job to another. I was particularly impressed with the durability of this ladder, thanks to its Type 1AA ANSI Duty Rating. It held up to 375 lbs without any issues.
The oversized hinges and armored feet, coupled with built-in tool holders, added an extra layer of convenience and security. The integrated wheels also made moving the ladder from place to place a breeze.
However, I did notice that the ladder could be a bit unsteady at times, especially when I was standing at a higher height. Additionally, it took me a bit of time to figure out all the different modes and how to switch between them.
Overall, the Gorilla Ladders 19 ft. Reach MPXT Aluminum Multi-Position Ladder is a solid choice for anyone looking for a versatile and convenient ladder. It's definitely worth the investment.

🔗Little Giant Ladders Multi M17 Aluminum 18-ft Reach Type 1A- 300-lb Capacity Telescoping Multi-Position Ladder

​
https://preview.redd.it/4dx8lnq0543d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=99ef55eb13de797e66a5af28915e618bbd7a5c9a
For those of us who need to tackle various home projects, the Little Giant Multi M17 Aluminum Ladder is a game-changer. As a homeowner who often relies on a sturdy ladder for maintenance and repairs, I've been fortunate to give this product a test run.
The Multi M17's maximum reach of 18-ft in extension ladder position has proven invaluable, and the lightweight aluminum ensures its easy transportation. The wide-flared stabilizing legs indeed provide a more stable feel atop the ladder. However, these legs also made it a bit challenging to maneuver around corners and tight spaces in my house.
One of the standout features for me was Little Giant's new spring-assisted Rapid Lock adjustments, which were notably easier to adjust than traditional U-locks. This versatile ladder's capacity to hold up to 300 lbs. in each position, and its certification to OSHA and ANSI standards, gave me the confidence I needed to tackle high-up tasks.
In conclusion, I would highly recommend the Little Giant Multi M17 Aluminum Ladder for those seeking a versatile, reliable, and stable ladder for their various home improvement projects. Its weight and maneuverability do have their drawbacks, but these are outweighed by its benefits in performance and stability.

🔗High-Viz Green, Lightweight Non-Conductive Fiberglass Extension Ladder (20 ft)

​
https://preview.redd.it/jgqqh461543d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6fe547a63221cc1d666920d3038441dd10cdf045
As a reviewer who's used the Little Giant Safety Hyperlite SUMOSTANCE 20 ft Type IAA Fiberglass Extension Ladder, I can say it's an impressive ladder that stands out in several ways. The most notable feature for me is the SumoStance leveling outrigger system that significantly improves the ladder's stability, making it much safer to use even on irregular terrain.
The high-visibility green rail is another great addition. It not only helps ensure visibility on the job site but also offers a non-conductive surface, ideal for electricians or anyone working close to power sources. The wide rungs reduce foot fatigue, while the Sure-Set foot allows you to set the ladder securely on different surfaces.
However, there's one thing I found a bit annoying. The side-mounted, dual-pulley system does reduce the effort needed to lift the fly section, but it tends to get tangled up sometimes, requiring extra care while assembling the ladder. Overall, I'd say the benefits of this ladder outweigh the minor drawbacks, especially considering the safety it offers.

🔗Maximum Stability 20 ft Aluminum Extension Ladder with QuickLatch RungLock

​
https://preview.redd.it/8b40gvg1543d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=69c0a309f857a8dc9659324c9fd8d502d7ebf29b
I've been using the Louisville AE3220 aluminum extension ladder in my daily life, and I must say it has been a game-changer. The modified I-beam design adds strength while keeping it lightweight. The swivel safety shoes are a fantastic touch, allowing for versatility when setting up the ladder.
However, the one-finger operation of the QuickLatch rung lock could use some improvement for a smoother experience. Overall, this ladder provides excellent value and meets the safety standards set by ANSI and OSHA.

🔗20 ft Fiberglass Ladders with Traction-Tred Steps and Reinforced Back-Up Plates

​
https://preview.redd.it/84puh5w1543d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f57a9e9aafee18dcbda23ef45913516222d67e0d
When I first got my hands on the Werner T7420 20 ft. Fiberglass 300 lb. Twin Stepladder, I was surprised by its sheer size and weight. It's not something you can easily move around by yourself, so it's best to have some help when setting it up or taking it down.
One thing that stood out to me is the EDGE bracing system and aluminum external rail shields. These features provide great protection against damage to the rails, making the ladder more durable and reliable. The heavy gauge aluminum extruded top feels sturdy and well-built, while the slip-resistant Traction-Tred steps ensure a firm grip even when climbing up and down.
However, the weight of this ladder is a significant drawback. It requires some muscle to handle, and even setting it up requires careful coordination. The size makes it a bit cumbersome as well, so it's crucial to have enough space to store and maneuver it safely.
Overall, the Werner T7420 Fiberglass Stepladder is a well-built, sturdy, and reliable product that can handle a considerable load. While the weight and size make it challenging to handle for one person, its excellent performance and safety features make it a valuable addition to any workshop or home.

🔗Professional-Grade, Adjustable Fiberglass Extension Ladder

​
https://preview.redd.it/hqqav662543d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b7bc6415a81693095f0bdaafa1c781f56e5d47f6
As a reviewer, I've recently had the chance to try out the Werner D8220-2EQ Fiberglass Extension Ladder. Imagine trying to reach the top shelf of your tall cabinet, only to find that the ladder you're using is wobbly and unstable. That's where this ladder shines. Its built-in adjustable EverLevel leveling system is a game-changer for those working in uneven terrain.
One of the most impressive features of this ladder is the exclusive Alflo rung joint, which provides a Twist-Proof climb without compromising on safety. I particularly found this useful when I had to climb up and down the ladder multiple times for a project. The ladder's 300 lb. load capacity not only makes it durable but also ensures it can handle heavy-duty tasks.
However, one downside I noticed was its weight. While it adds to the ladder's stability, it can become quite challenging to maneuver it alone, especially for taller users or those with limited strength. Another minor issue I faced was the absence of a level indicator on the ladder, which could have been a handy addition for those working with precision in uneven terrain.
Overall, the Werner D8220-2EQ Fiberglass Extension Ladder is a solid choice for anyone who needs a reliable, safe, and stable ladder for indoor or outdoor projects. Just be prepared for its considerable weight and consider these pros and cons before making your purchase.

🔗Gorilla Ladders 22 ft Multi-Position Aluminum Ladder for Extra Height

Recently, I got my hands on the 22 ft Gorilla Ladders. This multi-position ladder has been a game-changer in my daily life. With its 28 adjustable heights, it's perfect for reaching those high corners or changing light bulbs without strain.
One feature that truly stood out was its security during use. The heavy-duty hinges combined with the lightweight construction made me feel safe and confident while climbing, and I appreciated the ease of use for all its different positions. Although the instructions could use some work, once I figured things out, the ladder was a breeze to adjust and stow away.

I've had the pleasure of using the Gorilla Ladders 22 ft. Reach MPXA Aluminum Multi-Position Ladder, and let me tell you, it's a game-changer for any DIY project enthusiast. The lightweight aluminum design is a dream to carry around, and with its wide range of adjustable heights, this ladder feels like it can conquer any obstacle.
What stood out the most for me are the innovative storage features. The removable Project Bucket on top of the ladder is perfect for holding all your tools, creating a clutter-free environment when you're up on the ladder. Plus, the built-in tool hangers on the armored feet and hinge knobs provide an additional level of convenience.
Now, onto the negatives, there aren't many to speak of. If I had to nitpick, I'd say that the directions for ladder heights and reach heights could be clearer. But overall, this ladder is Built Smart and Always Tough, and I can't imagine doing any project without it by my side.

🔗Heavy-Duty 20-Foot Fiberglass Extension Ladder

I recently had the opportunity to try out this Werner D6020-2 20 ft. Fiberglass Extension Ladder in my daily life, and let me tell you, it was quite the experience. Picture this: I was trying to reach the roof for a small home repair task, and I stumbled upon this ladder in the store. Being the adventurous type, I decided to give it a go.
First, I loved their non-conductive fiberglass side rails, which meant I could worry less about electric shocks while climbing up. This gave me a sense of security as I approached the task. Plus, the heavy-duty pulley and rope system made it smooth to use and ensured a secure climb.
However, one thing that caught me off guard was the weight of the ladder itself. When I had to take it back down, I realized it was not as light as I had expected, which made it quite a challenge to carry around.
Another peculiar issue I faced was with the fiberglass material, which started shedding. It began to irritate my skin and was quite a hassle to clean up every time I used the ladder. It's a shame because fiberglass is usually a great material for non-marring and slip-resistance, and I was expecting that from this ladder as well.
On the positive side, the Shu-lok bracket and slip-resistant pads, combined with the Twist-Proof Alflo rungs, made sure that the ladder remained stable and secure at all times. Add to that the easy-to-use extruded gravity spring locks, and you have a ladder that's a delight to use in most situations.
In conclusion, while the Werner D6020-2 20 ft. Fiberglass Extension Ladder has some solid features to it, the issue with shedding fiberglass and the weight of the ladder make it a bit tricky to handle, especially for those who are safety-conscious or need to climb up and down multiple times a day.

🔗Heavy-Duty 20-ft Steel Ladder for Easy Ascent

As a reviewer, I've had the pleasure of using the API Outdoors Ultra-Steel 20-ft. Stackin' Stik Ladder for quite some time now. In my experience, the most noticeable feature was its stability and ease of use. The ladder's super-strong construction provided a steady climb and descent, making it a perfect addition to my tree stand setup.
However, the weight of the ladder was somewhat concerning, tipping the scales at 38 pounds. Despite this, the 300-pound weight capacity was reassuring, allowing me to climb with confidence. While the ladder sections were easy to set up and took minimal time to assemble, the instructions could have been more detailed and user-friendly.
The most significant downside I encountered was the ladder straps. They struggled to maintain the ladder's position and added an extra hassle during the installation process. After some trial and error, I resolved to use ratchet straps instead, which significantly improved the ladder's stability and ease of use.
In conclusion, the API Outdoors Ultra-Steel 20-ft. Stackin' Stik Ladder offers a sturdy and dependable alternative to traditional climbing sticks, but the included straps leave something to be desired. With a few adjustments and the addition of ratchet straps, this ladder can make an excellent addition to any tree stand setup.

🔗Lightweight, Non-Conductive 20 FT Fiberglass Extension Ladder with Patent-Pending Hi-Viz Green Design

​
https://preview.redd.it/yzkiqb54543d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0933d018b6bc82c770a429beb30c8903a88c106c
As a seasoned DIYer, I've tried my fair share of extension ladders. The Little Giant Safety Hyperlite 20 ft Type IA Fiberglass Extension Ladder - 18720 has been a game-changer in my toolkit. This lightweight, non-conductive fiberglass ladder is a breath of fresh air when compared to its heavier counterparts.
The double pulley system makes adjusting the ladder length a breeze, allowing me to focus on my task without hassle. The wide, slip-resistant rungs have been a comforting addition, reducing foot fatigue during long projects. The Hi-Viz green color not only looks great but also increases the ladder's visibility to avoid any accidents.
However, the weight reduction doesn't come without a trade-off. Although it's easier to maneuver, it feels less sturdy at times, especially when working on uneven surfaces. The side-mounted, dual-pulley system is a pro, but it's not without its cons. While it makes raising the ladder a less strenuous task, I've found that it takes longer to set up compared to traditional ladders.
Overall, the Little Giant Safety Hyperlite 20 ft Type IA Fiberglass Extension Ladder - 18720 has certainly earned its spot in my toolbox, offering a balance of convenience and functionality.

Considerations

1. Environment: If you'll be using the ladder outdoors, ensure it's weather-resistant and waterproof.
2. Safety Gear: Invest in safety gear like non-slip shoes, gloves, and a hard hat to protect yourself while working at a height.

Don't hate on me too hard for having the Betafpv controller(I was new and wanted something that I could easily put simulator hours in with), but I have it binded to my explorer drone yet I can't seem to get it to show inputs on betaflight(throttle etc.) I have UART ports with serial rx on and have it set to SBUS. I have updated both my transmitter and explorer to the current software and tried everything in the books.

Important: To understand everything I explain below, I recommend that you first read part 1 and part 2 of these publications, in order to understand the scientific bases of this system of magic and at what point it goes from science to magic.
^{Expansion of the limits section (see part 2}:)
The cell cycle also participates in a strict limit regarding how a cell is altered, you see, the life of a cell consists of four phases, each fulfilling a crucial role in this system of magic. This is the first G1 phase, where the cell increases its size as it synthesizes a high amount of proteins, increases the number of mitochondria and other organelles, and prepares to duplicate its DNA. In the next phase, S, the cell synthesizes nuclear proteins, the centrosomes duplicate, and the number of chromosomes doubles. Second to last is the G2 phase, where protein synthesis increases and the size of the cell grows more. Finally, the cell goes to Phase M, cell division, where the nuclei divide and are moved to opposite ends of the cell, finally, the cytoplasm separates to give rise to two equal cells, each with half of size and organs than the original cell. After this, the cell will begin the cycle again, both cells will increase in size, etc.
cell cycle scheme
The important thing at this point, now that we understand how the cell cycle works, is how a cell is altered by this system of magic. When a user of this magic system alters their genetic code and forces the cell cycle to occur at an accelerated rate, first the cell will grow, but instead of following the standard instructions of the DNA, what it will do is follow the new instructions, this implies that when it grows in size instead of adding the standard components to the cytoplasm and cell wall, it will introduce new components, in the same way for new organelles, etc. After cell division, the process begins again, and so on continuously until each part of the cell is replaced by the new components indicated in its DNA, until reaching the point of complete cellular transformation.
This process is, in retrospect, inefficient, and would only occur in a society with primitive knowledge about biology that makes use of this magic. But the process can be done more efficiently, in the first instance by learning to dedifferentiate somatic cells, that is, convert an already differentiated cell into a stem cell, this by introducing transition genes (proteins) that induce this process. in the cells. Once genes that carry out this process are introduced, the cells could differentiate again, carrying out a much more efficient transformation in terms of resources spent and time, since it is not necessary to force many cell cycles for the change to be made.
The last real limit that Reconstruction has is when altering organisms other than oneself, that is, while a user of this magic can easily alter their genetic code, things change when another organism is altered. First of all, when a Reconstruction user wants to alter another, both wills confront each other, fighting to alter or maintain the genetic code, these fights usually end in a stalemate where neither of them is able to overcome the other and has to a third party intervenes on behalf of one of the parties to break the balance. And, secondly, when a Reconstruction user wants to alter the genetic code of another organism, it is not enough to touch it, the other must be pierced, which is why many Reconstruction users maintain some form of claw or needle in their forms, This also applies to root bracelets where the genome of its different genotypic forms is stored. An incision must be made in the skin so that its interior is in contact with its interior, and thus be able to access the genetic code stored there.

Timeline

In the first instance, assuming that this system of magic has been used for a few thousand years in a primitive society, the first stable modifications of the genome would be based on the accelerated synthesis of proteins, such as collagen, hemoglobin, transferin, lactase, etc And manipulate the genetic code so that the body synthesizes proteins that it does not generate on its own, such as: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, valine, etc. Or synthesize more complex things, for example, billions of years ago the human being lost the gene that synthesizes vitamin C, with this magic system it could be recovered.
^{Primitive age:}
A practical example of all this would be the development of a phenotypic form that is not practical for everyday life, but that is very useful for specific situations, such as fighting, increasing growth hormones, suppressing myostatin synthesis (allowing muscle development without limits), and more things. All this to achieve a phenotypic form with incredible strength, but if maintained over time it is harmful to health, so it would only be used in specific cases.
Bull unable to synthesize myostatin
Meanwhile, genes would be discovered to improve the normal and basic genetic code, a stable one to permanently modify the base state of the users of this magic, such as recovering the gene that allows the synthesis of the aforementioned vitamin C, or even more .
At this point, things like organic infrastructure would not be very complex, in fact, they would not yet be developed enough to be common, and would still use cabins or huts made of wood, mud, or other simple materials. Things like light sources, or simple housing reinforcements, would be achieved by altering already existing organisms rather than developing them from scratch, for example by altering bioluminescent organisms like fireflies.
In matters of war, there was little or no change, with respect to our real history, obviously, fights and wars would still be carried out by armed men, albeit larger and stronger, but still needing the use of armor and sharp weapons such as swords.
^{Bronze age equivalent}
The next stage (more or less an equivalent to ancient Rome) of the development of the use of Reconstruction would occur in an indeterminate period of time, later than that seen above, but not very far in time. More fanciful things like altering the natural growth of the body, making yourself grow eight feet tall, altering the color of your skin, eyes, hair, etc. or grow bone armor around the body. But the key is that they manipulate already existing cellular structures, bone cells, muscle cells, tendon, etc. They do not create new structures or specialized cells beyond those that already exist in the body.
https://preview.redd.it/snke9vfk713d1.png?width=564&format=png&auto=webp&s=a4b3d8a8b9098d29251917f7086bd4141d789472
At this point, the organic infrastructure already reaches a complexity and diffusion high enough to replace normal housing, it would have several advantages over normal housing, such as the repair (regeneration) of these would be at its own expense and would not be a waste of resources or time to do it, things like aqueducts would be simpler to build, because instead of using the natural movement of water, a conduit-shaped structure could be used based on muscular movement to push the water even uphill.
Conflicts would evolve little, since weapons and armor would no longer be required, these would already be implemented in the body itself, and would allow a change in war strategies, forms of hand-to-hand combat, etc. The most important change would come with the use of altered war beasts, such as bulls, elephants, or others, reinforced with bone armor and/or other structures such as horns, tusks or claws.
^{Equivalent to Middle Ages/Enlightenment} The next step, which is an intermediate one between the previous one and the absolute dominance over genes and life, would be the conversion of one cell to another, you see, all the cells inside have the same genetic information as the entire body, but They express different parts of them in relation to how they differentiate. A neuronal cell expresses a very specific part of the DNA that is different from that of a bone cell. And for this process there are two methods, one primitive and another more complex, which are detailed in the last section of Rules and Limits, in particular the one that talks about the cell cycle. This allows the total change of the human form, that is, it allows it to no longer follow the normal structure of the body, while in the previous phase the growth of the body was promoted to improve it, in this its normal structure can be altered from scratch, for example. For example, converting bone cells into muscle cells, thus transforming legs into tentacles, skin into chitin, etc. something that would not be possible just by promoting the growth of the structures already present in the body. In this area, the use of extra limbs, such as the aforementioned tentacles instead of legs, or the growth of an extra pair of arms, would begin to become common.

In the infrastructure area things would stagnate a bit, with the exception of some minor improvements, such as adaptations to natural disasters. The real advance would come in the military field, because at this point real changes would be made, to begin with the use of a form of firearm, which would consist of the use of bone projectiles and the use of peristaltic muscle movements, Along with pressure buildup in the form of some hydraulic structure to propel them, replenishing these projectiles would only require the use of Reconstruction to make them grow again.
The use of mutated organisms for evolutionary warfare to have more complex weapons, since now they could alter their complete structure to create organisms that are not functional in nature, but for periods of war they would be useful, and after finishing their use they would be discarded. Their severe mutations would not make them suitable to live in nature, nor to reproduce, in fact, their release and in rare cases possible reproduction could turn them into an invasive species, and end up negatively affecting the ecological niche of an area.
The arch structure that grows on its back is clearly not natural or suitable for the environment, it is impossible that it evolved naturally to this state.
^{Equivalent to Industrial Revolution} The next stage would be one intermediate between the previous and the next, not very separated in terms of time from the first, it would be equivalent to the industrial revolution, advances in the understanding of chemistry and biology would allow the development of new organs and body structures. , and specialized organizations for specific tasks. For example, the ability to filter oxygen from water, or the alteration of the photoreceptors in the eyes to capture light waves of the ultraviolet or infrared spectrum. An improvement in things like structural structures and mechanisms, such as increasing the dryness of the skin to not conduct electricity, increasing bone thickness and its internal structures to improve its resistance, etc.

In terms of infrastructure and technology, “chemical ovens” would begin to be created for the synthesis of complex materials, thanks to the use of massive organisms that would make use of different forms of proteins to manipulate the particles of substances, and natural chemical reactions, the The simplest example of this would be the synthesis of steel from iron and carbon, in itself requiring much less energy effort, in the sense that high temperatures are not required, but rather the integration of certain particles into an already existing structure, for example. For example, using polymerized molecules, capable of going from a soluble state to a solid state, that integrates metals in its composition, or some other method.
War technology would undergo a transformation thanks to the use of chemicals, advanced compounds, and new organs in its structures, such as echolocation gases for submarines, or other means of transportation, highly flammable gases for jet propulsion, among others. What is truly important would be the development of graft technology, in our reality a graft is a surgical procedure to transfer tissue from one part of the body to another, in the field of botany it is a method of artificial vegetative propagation of plants. plants, in which a portion of tissue from one plant is attached to another already established. Graft technology, in the scope of this fantasy and science fiction scenario, is a combination of the previous two, it would be the development of small life forms that can be attached and removed from the user easily, and that fulfill a specific function , usually as a weapon, while it would be a waste of resources and time to constantly change from one form to another, if you already have a different organism prepared to fulfill a particular function, the waste disappears. These grafts could be used by both humans and biological machinery, and in the field of war they manifest themselves as weapons. Imagine a base organism that functions as a support for different grafts, from mortar cannons to flamethrowers, instead of modifying its entire genome to change weapons, you only remove the graft and place another one.

^{Equivalent Second industrial revolution (electricity}) The last would be the control over the smallest structures of the organism, the organelles, not only forcing their replication, but creating new types of these that do not exist in nature, and with it new types of cells with unique functions, these would not be present either. In nature. Such as organelles specialized in accumulating resources to carry out these transformations, also cells specialized in accumulating ferrous iron (non-ionic like that which circulates in the blood), in order to create organic iron structures. O Cells specialized in conducting action potentials in the form of electrical charge, similar to neurons, that is, cables.
https://preview.redd.it/aw6wvcxm913d1.png?width=564&format=png&auto=webp&s=cb83852c3730b1a30793531350821c3c50e766de
In terms of infrastructure, this era would be characterized by the beginnings of information technology and computing, as the first computers would be created, thanks to discovering the ability of fungi to transmit information through electrical impulses, through these they would be achieved. create the first computers, these are required by any advanced civilization in its daily field, for example for the architecture of complex buildings, such as skyscrapers, or extensive mathematical calculations that a brain cannot perform, and many more areas of life , how to install Doom on mushrooms.
In war matters, the implementation of computing would have an almost identical effect as, in our reality; from intelligence, data analysis, satellite images, to communications such as data encryption and encryption, such as communication networks. But the most important thing would be the weapons and defense systems, such as guidance and control systems (that is, missiles), and anti-missile defense.
^{Equivalent to a Space Age} Every civilization will eventually reach, at least in science fiction, a space age, where with their technological advances they will be able to travel the stars, colonize worlds, and discover new species. A society that, for millennia, has possessed the magic of Reconstruction would have a slight advantage in the field of space exploration, in the sense that it would not be a problem to find forms that adapt to the vacuum of space, necessary qualities such as being facultatively anaerobic. , having bodies sealed against the vacuum to prevent their blood from boiling, or, in extreme cases of generation ship travel, preventing their offspring from suffering the effects of zero gravity on their bodies. But they would not only be adaptable to the vacuum of space, while normal humans need to search for and inhabit planets that have conditions similar to those of Earth, such as an atmosphere with oxygen, similar gravity, digestible flora and fauna, the users of Reconstruction They have the advantage of being able to adapt to any environment, just by changing their shapes.

The field of war is not well known as evolutionary, given that we risk leaving behind minimal scientific rigor and moving directly to incoherence, but we can always rely on the most classic science fiction and stretch the suspension of disbelief pact a little. We could imagine organic orbital stations, either as a supply line or as a defense mechanism for a planet, available with different means to achieve this objective. On the other hand, we could have the equivalent of mecha or power armor.

Current is Milani highly rated anti gravity mascara ( I did do a rebuy on this) as seen in the image ^
But now I do want try having bit more drama to it?
What I look for: ⊛ hold curl ⊛ does not smudge ( flakes as well but at least I can move them easily ) ⊛ fluffy volume ( a bit a length would be nice (⁠.⁠ ⁠❛⁠ ⁠ᴗ⁠ ⁠❛⁠.⁠) ) ⊛ lash are not crispy to the touch ⊛ non waterproof ⊛ can be easily accessible ( cvs, Walgreens etc because I would be replacing mascara more frequently)
If you think my lashes with my current mascara is fine as is, you can let me know xD

Background: From within the Huntington Place of Detroit, Michigan, the audience would roar with shock and awe as Massachusetts senator Ted Kennedy would take the nomination among a large swath of candidates. As the younger brother of the late President John F. Kennedy and former senator Robert F. Kennedy, many look the young man in hopes of defeating the popular Vice President Hiram Fong in November.
While Kennedy's campaign was mired by the Chappaquiddick Incident in which he was jailed for several months, the chaotic primary process would lead way for Kennedy to present himself as a reliable and honest voice of the people compared to the feuding and ill-tempered candidates. By the time the National Convention came, candidates like Sargent Shriver, Wilbur Mills, and Terry Sanford had dropped out and backed the affluent liberal.
Kennedy would assemble a team of advisors including Representative Edith Green, former Attorney General Ramsey Clark, Chicago mayor Richard J. Daley, activist Julian Bond, and Milton Gwirtzman in order to begin vetting candidates as it became clear that he would likely win the nomination. Throughout the lengthy discussion, the group would begin debating over what qualities and policies would best reflect upon a potential Kennedy presidency. The discussion would focus primarily on matters of geography, political balance, experience, lack of controversy, and an ability to serve out the role of president if necessary.
Rumor would circulate that Kennedy's initial list would span over sixty candidates, but those numbers would quickly drop from fifty and to twenty as various names were marked off or placed in consideration for Cabinet roles. Among the rumored candidates would be Representatives Shirley Chisholm and Martha Griffiths, Senators George McGovern and Mike Gravel, former Treasury Secretary Sid McMath, Governor John J. Gilligan, and even CBS newsman Walter Cronkite. The vetting process would be long and frustrating due to the already-contentious atmosphere of the 1972 Democratic National Convention, but the team would press on until a small shortlist was made just several days before the convention was to begin.
The finalists, first reported on CBS News on July 1st of 1972, would consist of Idaho senator and presidential candidate Frank Church, Senator Vance Hartke of Indiana, Governor Warren Hearnes of Missouri, and House Representative Mo Udall.
​
​
Edward \"Ted\" Moore Kennedy: Senator from Massachusetts (1962-present), Senate Minority Whip (1969-1971).
Nominee: Senator Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts
​
Candidates:
​
Frank Forrester Church III: Senator from Idaho (1957-present), presidential candidate in 1972.
Frank Church: After coming in second place to Kennedy during the primaries, Senator Church has quickly changed his tune from harsh criticism of his Boston-born rival into that of a passionate endorsement. With years of experience in the Senate, Church would provide some needed experience to better aid the youthful Kennedy. If nominated, the ticket would present a strong sense of unity between the two liberal rivals.
Church, throughout his time in the Senate, has acted as a strong supporter of civil rights, environmentalism, and the creation of welfare programs for the underprivileged. As one of the most vocal critics of Rockefeller's handling of the Vietnam War, Senator Church would also help to reenergize the Doves in America's progressive voting blocks.
​
​
Rupert Vance Hartke: Senator for Indiana (1959-present), Mayor of Evansville, Indiana (1956-1958).
Vance Hartke: The liberal senator has worked up the ladder throughout his tenure in Congress, building strong working-relationships with Senate Leaders Lyndon B. Johnson and Mike Mansfield, which would ultimately grant him the position of Ranking Chair of the Senate Committee on Veteran's Affairs. Throughout his tenure, Hartke has been instrumental in ensuring automobile manufactures are required to install seatbelts and safety equipment in all car models, passing measures to create student loan programs and veteran benefits, and establishing Amtrak.
As an outspoken critic of the Vietnam War, Hartke has been seen lambasting both Presidents Reuther and Rockefeller, giving him the allure of a maverick politician willing to stand up to higher figures. The Indiana senator's nomination would give Kennedy a strong candidate to help campaign with progressives, although his anti-war sentiments may not win over states like Indiana that have been more vocally supportive of the war.
​
​
Warren Eastman Hearnes: 46th Governor of Missouri (1965-present), 31st Secretary of State of Missouri (1961-1965), Chair of the National Governors Association (1970-1971).
Warren E. Hearnes: A lesser-known figure within the Democratic Party, but decorated with a political career spanning over twenty years, Governor Hearnes has been seen as a strong man of the people that has been seen fighting the remaining components of the Pendergast Machine to challenging Missouri's political establishment. While Hearnes lacks a national profile akin to other prominent figures, his record as governor leaves him as one of the most accomplished candidates in consideration.
As Missouri's governor, Hearnes has prioritized improving public education, supporting civil rights, environmental protections, and bettering the state's highways and traffic safety. During his tenure, the state has overseen the massive increase of state aid to vocational education to go from over $850,000 to $8.8 million; furthermore, Hearnes has passed Missouri's first civil rights legislation and improved the state's Fair Employment Practices Act.

Mo Udall: Being rather well-liked in the party due to his humor and casual nature, having Udall on the ticket would help to alleviate any stress caused by Kennedy's past controversies, as well as provide a sense of connection with the everyman. Udall first entered the House of Representatives after winning a special election to succeed his brother, Stewart Udall, was appointed as John F. Kennedy's Secretary of the Interior.
Udall's political record is rather mixed, with a strong support for environmental protections, election campaign reform, and the need for official government healthcare. Udall gained national prominence thanks to his work in helping to both legislate and pass the Postal Reorganization Act of 1971, changing the Post Office Department into a semiprivate organization that allowed post office workers to unionize. Despite the latter note, Udall has often drawn ire from union leaders due to his opposition towards right-to-work laws.
