Well, I guess before I can give out a few potential people to be Republican running mates, I should list the people that can't or probably will not run.

Of coarse, we already know Douglas MacArthur was already executed for treason, so he's obviously out.

Dwight Eisenhower and Omar Bradley are also out since they were both of them had been dissuaded by Steele's political allies. They were also potential candidates for president and not vice president anyway.

I doubt Hoover, Landon, and Dewey will want to be running mates since they were either already president (Hoover) or already attempted to run and failed (Landon and Dewey) and won't want the job anyway. Willkie died in 1944, so he's out too.

Curtis died in 1936, and both Frank Knox and Charles L. McNary died in 1944 so all three of them are out.

And finally, Bricker probably won't be nominated after 1944, so he is not a choice either. JCC the Alternate Historian (talk) 19:25, June 13, 2018 (UTC)
