Wondered where we all would be if Bill Clinton was on term #4 now sort of

like FDR. eom.

1. I

bet a lot more people would be insured for one thing.

2. And I bet the whole doggone United States would be in far better hands.

eom. <serene sigh>

3. The dollar would still be up. The Euro still down.

Saddam wouldn't be ready to peg the oil to a different currency. Bookstores would have had a bad year with only neocon hate manuals to sell and no 3 million hardcover printing of Clinton's memoirs. Possibly to counter this we'd be on Harry Potter 11.

4. Employed and paying $.99/gallon for gasoline.

5. respected in the world...

[Bouncy Ball]

6. We'd actually still be respected in the world.

We'd have universal health coverage. The economy would be going great. We'd truly be in the 21st century and not rapidly moving into the 14th century. Science would still be seen as important and good.

You know, crazy shit like that.

7. Social Security would be safe.

[Seabiscuit]

8. We wouldn't be in Iraq

And the stock market would be booming.

And, since Clinton would have listened to Richard Clarke, there's a good chance 9/11 might never have happened.
