If Gore was President...9/11 most likey would NOT have Happened..
nearly 7000 Americans would still be alive

Nearly 30,000 troops would not have been wounded

1 Trillion Dollars wouldn't have been spent.

300,000 Iraqis would still be alive.

Osama would have been caught

Global Warming would be addressed

The National Debt would have been nearly paid off

New Orleans woulda been rebuilt by now...

We would have a lesser amount of FEAR in our Nation.

We would be HAPPIER and RICHER

We would have less Poverty/H0MELESS

We would........

1. We would be bitching about that stupid coke-head Baseball Commissioner
Bush, for sending all of the baseball teams over to Korea to fight the Japanese for baseball supremacy.

5. Small correction
it's actually over 1 million dead Iraqis and 4 million displaced so far

Also not under Gore's watch:

No Gitmo and CIA renditions and secret prisons

No NSA spying nonsense

Constitution still intact

11. By paying attention and actually doing his job perhaps?
Edited on Sat Sep-08-07 01:44 AM by ReadTomPaine
It's amazing what a competent President with a savvy cabinet can accomplish by actually reading his daily briefs and having intelligence officials who are more than just rubber stamping yes men advise him.

Just a guess.

Or do you think there's no difference between Bush and Gore? I've heard that song before, Mr Nader.

9/11 didn't have to happen.

9. I wish Bush hadn't gotten the presidency even tho Al actually won
It's depressing to think about things you have listed. It's just too sad beyond words.

We need Al Gore to run. He has said he is a recovering politician, but this is good. Because...

Plato suggested that the people best suited to be leaders are those who tend to be least interested in the office, and that those who seek an office are generally least qualified to hold it.
