The political firebrand, long estranged from Democrats, fears fascism will be on the ballot in 2024 and it must be defeated

      He may have actually responded, as the intelligence report about a Bin laden attack was produced and given to the Bush white house before 9/11.

      He also likely would not have gone to war with Iraq over false pretenses, saving trillions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of lives.

      He also might have kicked off a US renewables industry in 2000, putting us ahead of target on clean energy and energy independence, weakening Saudi Arabia, who sponsored Bin laden with their oil money.

      Lots of ways.

        Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 so you’re probably right there, I’m more curious if Gore would’ve gotten us into the same quagmire in Afghanistan. I’ve heard Afghanistan made offers to help get OBL, but I’m not sure if Gore would’ve taken those offers.

        Essentially, I’m trying to get an idea for how a Gore presidency would’ve changed the US’ trajectory. I know he was in favor of green energy, but I don’t know if he would’ve put that on the backburner while he dealt with 9/11.

      Wait do you think that Bush did a good job? It was a complete failure, we played right into OBL hands. Its even more embarrassing that he basically copied what pancho villa did a hundred years prior, and we still fell for it! I doubt Gore would have bit so hard, and he definitely wouldn’t had invaded Iraq on a fucking lie.

        How did you get that from my comment? I merely asked how Gore might’ve responded to 9/11. His response is my main criticism of his presidency, but I don’t know if Gore would’ve done anything differently.

      I doubt he would’ve waged a war on Iraq.
