I'd look up (and will paste) some items about the Roosevelt administration's attitude towards the war, which required the recall of US Ambassador Joe Kennedy, who saw the bleak situation of the Brits and thought it was hopeless. The most the US hoped for was that when -- they didn't think "if" -- Britain fell, they'd give us (Canada) their fleet. Churchill told FDR that he would go down fighting, but could not guarantee that another government in the UK might not make more favorable terms with the invaders if the Germans came across the Channel, and the biggest chit to play would have been the Royal Navy. If anyone is confident in some well-researched alternative history, perhaps they could recommend it. I think it's such a self-evident Resolved it'll be hard to write.
