Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Well, but he does need a VP now...
Hammond would have to retire, though.
Would he? hmm, I guess. I know the President is Commander in chief, but since that's a civilian post, it makes sense.
Hmmm, I need to refresh my civics.
OTOH? President dies sometime next year and Hammond is suddenly POTUS? Gold.

Hmmm, maybe he'll take Hammond's place at the SGC, instead....

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Ya mean, when whoever was backing Kinsey has him killed?

So not where my mind was going.
And I don't think being retired necessarily helps with that.
Lord, let them not take him out of the field.

Couldn't see Hammond as VP. I'm sure he's got the political skills necessary for his position, but the VP's really a political player, right? Don't think Hammond would want it or would be happy with it.

Not unless they have a civilian agency running it, hopefully not the NID...
And? Jack would always find a reason to be going into the field, anyway... Plus? Jack+Sam would be semi-acceptable.
Wow, it's like a fanfic train wreck in my head.

So I just saw Nerve/The Hidden Memory. DAMN, that's some good TV. Sad about Gilina - given how things turned out I would definitely traded Stark to keep her around.
Also sad in that Stark did seem to have loads of potential. It's a shame that he never really had a character that went beyond what we saw here.

Heh. That's our Froon.
Man needs a job. You'd think there'd be someone out there in Hollywood who needs a twisted genius. Sigh.
Frank, you know about The Snurchers' Guide, right? They have chat transcripts with discussions of particular episodes with the cast and writers.

When did Jack retire? or are we talking about Hammond?
I totally thought Bra'tac was a goner. Then I was sure the Prometheus was going to go down in glory. Makes me a little bitter about Janet Frasier. She's still dead.
