Dewey, about the same as Eisenhower and Truman otl.

Realistically, the Dems as a whole alienated the south. There's a reason for the later split. Kefauver, being a moderate like Johnson, would have someone with positions more like Kennedy as his VP.

For that spot, Harriman would be a possibility. Frank Lausche would probably work even better. Others would include JFK and George Smathers. Correct about Humphrey and Sparkman. Stevenson, imo, had to be talked into the presidential nomination. Good luck with the VP slot.
