Well, aside from Edith Wilson not being able to hijack the Executive Branch for 2 and a half years, how will Thomas Marshall handle that period?
the desire for "a return to normalcy" as that Ohio Senator put it, will see Marshall's defeat in 1920 if he chooses to run.
Despite what The Other Place thought, Wilson's death won't lead to murmurings about a constitutional amendment, as, in this timeline, he's simply died and not been crippled and reduced to a shadow of himself.
It will take the atmosphere of something like the Cold War to really spur an amendment covering a disabled or incapacitated President.
