While Confederate President Lee facing off with US President Mahan sounds right, Lee was mentioned of being one of three best Confederate Presidents along with Jefferson Davis and James Longstreet, though this was a statement made by Jake Featherston.

If Lee faces off against Mahan to build the Nicaraguan Canal and loses, he will be disgraced and be called a failure. Also, in order to be in office at the same time as Mahan, Lee would have to serve as CS President from either 1886-1892 or from 1892-1898. Which set of dates sound better?

Is it also possible that we could have two President Lee's? Robert E. Lee could serve after Jefferson Davis from 1868-1874 while Fitzhugh Lee could serve from one of the two dates I mentioned above.

By the way, I know Robert died in 1870. However, with a shorter Civil War, it's possible Robert doesn't have as much stress and could've lived a few extra years until after 1874. Also, whoever (or whomever) President Lee was, the books never mention him dying in office. JCC the Alternate Historian (talk) 13:40, August 4, 2018 (UTC)
