RE: If you could change the outcome of one presidential election...
W's Presidency still brings nightmares. I actually physically shudder reading his name. I always remind myself that the way I felt about W is how you guys feel about Obama. It helps me to understand you better. W's administration... that whole circus sideshow makes me physically sick. I also think W himself is not that bad of a guy. He would probably be a great guy to have a beer with but Cheney hi jacked his legacy. I hear Cheney is miffed at W over the Libby pardon. It should be the other way around. W should be pissed at who "Cheneys vp selection committee" came up with!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's proof that BDS is a true psychological disorder.

Agree with this. He ran on a Ron Paul military philosophy and promised to end nation building. 9/11 happened and Cheney/Ridge/Rumsfeld got in his head and he did a complete about face. Then Hank Paulson and Goldman Sacs got in his head and led to TARP and all the bailouts. It was fun watching Cheney toy around with John Edwards like a cat playing with a ball of yarn in the debate, but that was about all he was good for.

Actually...you're almost correct. I will readily admit that I was sort of deranged in my hatred for Bush. But then I did some research and learned some things. No, he was still a horrible president, but I stopped blaming him for things he could in no way control...like gas prices.
But I'd really like to know when you guys (not just you Torch) are going to do this with Obama. Yeah...I ain't holding out much hope.
So Torch, are you admitting that ODS is real then?
And back to Gore. If you think for one second that we would not have gone after OBL in Afghanistan just like W did, you're in a dream world. The political pressure to do this would have made any democrat crumble to it.
The difference would have been that he would have not had ******** like Cheney and Rummy forcing him to make up **** about Saddam being linked to OBL. No way we would have invaded Iraq in a Gore presidency. No way!

Agreed.
We would have been slaves working on enormous pay outs to Gore and friends for allowing us to light candles at home. If the home windmill and/or solar panel didn't provide electricity at night we just wouldn't have any.
Yeah, focusing on things like sustainable energy, climate control, lowering the US carbon footprint, poverty, income inequality are terrible...we had WMDs to go get from Iraq!
And Al Gore isn't as environmentally friendly. His carbon footprint at the time of an Inconvenient Truth was bigger than a city block I believe was the report.
Do as I say, not as I do.

Douglas over Lincoln, Lincoln was a tyrant that showed future Federal politicians that if you didn't like something in the Constitution you could just ignore it.
Or maybe I should go as far back as Van Buren over Jackson.

Van Buren didn't run against Jackson, he was his VP. Van Buren beat a collection of Whigs in 1836, then lost to WH Harrison in 1840. That what you're referring to?

First off, Gore never was President, so don't use that title for him.
