Elected President

Bill Clinton
Democratic

The incumbent in 1992, George H. W. Bush. His term expired at noon on January 20, 1993.

Presidential elections were held in the United States on November 3, 1992. The Democratic ticket of Arkansas governor Bill Clinton and Senator from Tennessee Al Gore defeated incumbent Republican president George H. W. Bush and vice president Dan Quayle and the independent ticket of businessman Ross Perot and vice admiral James Stockdale. The election marked the end of 12 consecutive years of Republican rule of the White House, as well as the end of a longer period of Republican dominance in American presidential politics that began in 1968, with the exception of Jimmy Carter's narrow victory in 1976.

Bush had alienated many conservatives in his party by breaking his 1988 campaign pledge not to raise taxes, but he fended off a primary challenge from paleoconservative commentator Pat Buchanan without losing a single contest. Bush's popularity following his success in the Gulf War dissuaded high-profile Democratic candidates such as Mario Cuomo from entering the 1992 Democratic primaries. Clinton, a leader of the centrist Democratic Leadership Council, established himself as the front-runner for the Democratic nomination by sweeping the Super Tuesday primaries. He defeated former governor of California Jerry Brown, former Massachusetts senator Paul Tsongas, and other candidates to win the nomination, and chose Tennessee senator Al Gore as his running mate. The billionaire Perot launched an independent campaign, emphasizing his opposition to the North American Free Trade Agreement (which at time was being actively negotiated) and his plan to reduce the national debt.

The 1992 election marked the first presidential election in which a matter related to gaming was considered a central electoral issue. The rampant rise of cheaters and hostile automated bot accounts in Team Fortress 2, commonly referred to as the bot crisis, proved to be a hotly-contested issue throughout the campaign. Whilst addressed to varying degrees by all three candidates, Bush's inability to justify and defend his administration's inaction on the matter was seen as a major reason for his defeat. A central policy of the Perot/Stockdale campaign was Perot's own proposed anti-cheat system, referred to as Perot Protocol. As proposed by Perot, if implemented, Perot Protocol would have passively observed and analysed the playstyle and mannerisms of randomly selected active accounts without their knowledge and instantly ban accounts from casual servers based on their hardware ID should they have exhibited clear bot-like or cheater behaviour. Due to his heavy focus on the bot crisis, Perot received the collective endorsement of the #SaveTF2 Movement, and various figures of the TF2 community including Uncle Dane, megascatterbomb, and TheWhat Show among others, endorsements which resulted in Perot receiving the votes of over 50% of American computer gamers, and over 90% of American TF2 players.

The economy had recovered from a recession in the spring of 1991, followed by 19 consecutive months of growth, but perceptions of the economy's slow growth harmed Bush, for he had inherited a substantial economic boom from his predecessor Ronald Reagan. Bush's greatest strength, foreign policy, was regarded as much less important following the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War, as well as the relatively peaceful climate in the Middle East after the Gulf War. Perot led in several polls taken in June 1992, but severely damaged his candidacy by temporarily dropping out of the race in July. The Bush campaign criticized Clinton's character and emphasized Bush's foreign policy successes, while Clinton focused on the economy.

Treaty of Paris (1783) at Wikisource

The Treaty of Paris, signed in Paris by representatives of King George III of Great Britain and representatives of the United States of America on September 3, 1783, officially ended the American Revolutionary War and overall state of conflict between the two countries. The treaty set the boundaries between British North America (later called Canada) and the United States, on lines "exceedingly generous" to the latter.[61] Details included fishing rights and restoration of property and prisoners of war.

This treaty and the separate peace treaties between Great Britain and the nations that supported the American cause—France, Spain, and the Dutch Republic—are known collectively as the Peace of Paris.[62][63] Only Article 1 of the treaty, which acknowledges the United States' existence as free, sovereign, and independent states, remains in force.[64]

Universal Newsreel about the Cuban Missile Crisis






























The Smithon Crisis, also known as the November Crisis (of 1871), the First Eureka-Tasmania Crisis, or the Eurekan Ship Scare, was a 15-day (15 November – 30 November 1871) confrontation between the Republic of Eureka and Tasmania, observed by the Commonwealth of Australia. The crisis was a direct result of the West Bass Retaliation Plan, drafted, approved, and enacted by Eurekan President Timmothy Hayes, a significant policy which led primarily to his election at the 1871 Eurekan presidential election. The plan served as an attempt to overcome the Australian placed West Bass Blockade in the Bass Strait, preventing Eurekan access to the South Indian Ocean. The West Bass Retaliation Plan involved the establishment of a Eurekan naval outpost colony along the north-west coast of Tasmania, which could overcome the West Bass Blockade. The crisis has since been regarded as one of the first historical false alarms.

The crisis began on the dawn of November 20, 1871, when the Eurekan colony vessels were seen off the coast of Smithon, Tasmania, which the citizens believed to be warships under the guise of an unprovoked military attack, as tensions had been rising between Eureka and the Commonwealth states beforehand, and President Hayes's strong stance of Eurekan nationalism therein. Soon after the ships sighting, Tasmanian advisors were quick to contact Australian Commonwealth officials, who in turn began the deployment of ground troops and naval vessels in preparation for an invasion.

In a tense 15-day conference between Eurekan President Timothy Hayes and Australian Prime Minister William Stawell, both of whom took leading roles in the negotiations, an armistace was eventually negotiated upon, through which the West Bass Blockade would be disbanded, and Australia would remove all intended military forces, whilst Eureka would no longer seek to expand into Tasmania militarily or otherwise. The lack of Tasmanian presence at the negotiation conference, with Australia seemingly presumably speaking in their best interest on their behalf, directly contributed to the rise of Tasmanian nationalism, and the Unity Alliance's loss at the 1872 Tasmanian national election.

The Smithon Crisis is historically regarded as the closest Eureka and Australia had ever come to war since the Eurekan Revolution.

Chapter 17 index: "Communists provided further corroboration of the proximity of their casualty figures to American figures in a postwar disclosure of total losses from 1960 to 1975. During that period, they stated, they lost 849,018 killed plus approximately 232,000 missing and 463,000 wounded. Casualties fluctuated considerably from year to year, but a degree of accuracy can be inferred from the fact that 500,000 was 59 percent of the 849,018 total and that 59 percent of the war's days had passed by the time of Fallaci's conversation with Giap. The killed in action figure comes from "Special Subject 4: The Work of Locating and Recovering the Remains of Martyrs From Now Until 2020 And Later Years," downloaded from the Vietnamese government website datafile on 1 December 2017. The above figures on missing and wounded were calculated using Hanoi's declared casualty ratios for the period of 1945 to 1979, during which time the Communists incurred 1.1 million killed, 300,000 missing, and 600,000 wounded.
