Recently over at his place Yglesias outlined his idea for a TV show called "TRICKY" where Nixon wins in 60's and ends up going to the other way and courts the black vote in the run up to 1964 (he also imagines Nixon pushing for a moonshot and the US getting bogged down in a guerilla war in Cuba after Nixon invades in the aftermath of the failed Bay of Pigs fiasco). Think Mad Men meets For All Mankind meets Oliver Stone's movie Nixon.
I'd watch the hell out of that (especially if they have Bryan Cranston as LBJ in the Senate plotting to tear Nixon down).
