My own theory is that  House Stark will aid Daenarys Targaryen in conquering Westeros and as a reward Jon Snow will be legitimized and become Jon Stark (as well as the new King in The North) and The North will gain its independence. And P.S. when you typed "Jon Sand" did you mean "Jon Snow" Where is Tower of Joy? In the SOUTH on the border of Dorne. Which would make him a Sand if he truly was born in Tower of Joy, just here to say that R+L=J thoery is a bigot conspiracy and in no way makes Jon a Targaryen. As for Stark aiding Dany, I don't think so, I think it would be more aid from Ellaria and Dornish seen as how they hate Lannisters and King's Landing under their rule.

Besides Starks were always just for being the Great House of The North, none of them have any interest in King's Landing or the Iron Throne nor I think they should aid someone else there now that Baratheons are extinct. While it's true that if R + L = J is actually correct, then Jon Snow was definitely born in Dorne. However as Lady Catelyn pointed out in Season 1, Ned Stark rode south with Robert Baratheon and "came back later with another woman's child". So they know Jon was born in Dorne, or at least they know he definitely wasn't born in the North. Yet, with all this taking into account, he still has the name Snow. This would imply that it does not matter that much where you were born, but rather were you were legitimised. So, de facto he may be Jon Sand, but de iure he is indeed Jon Snow.
