My main quibble of note was that Guiliani apparently gets a second term? I had no real belief that he'd get one--Fen or not he's still Rudy Guiliani, to know him is to hate him and after four years I can't imagine anybody but hardline anti-Fen types particularly liking him all that much.

So, rework: Guiliani takes a dive in the '12 elections

Okay, so who's president in 2012-2016, then? We can't have someone too close to moderate (let alone progressive/liberal), or some of the post-2012 anti-Fen stuff would have a hard time gaining steam, and in particular the LTA probably needs someone anti-Fen to some degree to sign it into law -- because regardless how the spin doctors play it to the public, the members of Congress will most if not all understand the real purpose behind the bill.

Who's our best candidate?
EDIT:  Oh, wait, Guiliani signs it into law before the 2012 election; we don't need to have another rigthwinger as President after him.  Never mind that requirement, then.  Still, the question remains -- what name do I plug into $PRESIDENT for the repeal?

I am tempted to say Bernie Sanders. He's the closest to a moderate they've got and a viable enough candidate that he's running now and lacks the controversy that a Hillary or Obama would throw up. He's certainly more the type to actively reach out to the Fen and attempt a reconciliation.
Alternatively, if the timeline doesn't support an immediate reconciliation (I forget exactly what we decided on there), one term for Obama followed by Sanders.
