Long story short, Lincoln wasn't assassinated. The conspirators were brought to justice; death sentences were distributed. It was just as well, as Booth's acting career would have come to an embarrassing end with that nasal whine that came out of his mouth during the trial. Lincoln served out the remainder of his second term a huge national hero. Reconstruction succeeded. African-Americans didn't have to wait another hundred years for their civil rights.

Booth's acting career would have done just fine. His father did pretty well with a broken nose.

I don't know, Jim. I have a lot of faith in my fake history sources. I'll have to go with them unless and until they're proven accurate. (Because if they're accurate, then I can no longer rely on them for fake history!) Angel

I like the way you think. "Alternate" history is alternate for a reason. When the alternate becomes mainstream.....it's no longer alternate. But then does the mainstream become "alternate"?

If this is the case, if Nate Olowek does indeed prove that the body in the barn was NOT Booth, then the rest of us become the "alternate" historians, and Nate will become the mainstream. If that occurs, Nate will have to go back and prove that it WAS Booth in the barn, so he can revert back to his notorius status as the "alternate" historian!
