Well if you are referring hust to the part with Colin Powell being
president form 2001-2009 I wrote some of this in 1996-1997 when that
still seemed a possibility. After his performance as Secretary of
State OTL I'm not so sure now-he still would have been better than
Dubya however.In the Star Trek ATL in envisioned him as a Eugenics War
hero hence his Eisenhower like victory in 2000.
