Having spent the better part of my life trying either to relive the past or experience the future before it arrives, I have come to believe that in between these two extremes is peace. ~Author Unknown


I never think of the future. It comes soon enough. ~Albert Einstein


I got the blues thinking of the future, so I left off and made some marmalade. It's amazing how it cheers one up to shred oranges and scrub the floor. ~D.H. Lawrence


Life is what happens to you when you’re busy making other plans. ~ John Lennon


The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly. ~

2. Bruce Wayne III

Right before the dashing and charismatic philanthropic leader of Gotham City heads to Washington to take the oath of office, he discovers a secret cave underneath stately Wayne Manor, the abandoned, but kept up Estate of his late Grandfather, Bruce Wayne...

Upon discovering that he Grandfather was The Batman, Wayne III is torn between his commitment to the country and the strong pull of his genealogy....

3. President? Of what?

I would be amazed if the U.S. as we know it even still exists by 2056.

"America" will still be here, as ideas can never perish. But the Democratic-Republic known as "The United States of America" will most likely have transformed into, or else given way to something else very different. Maybe even better.

4. Obviously the grandson of the 2008 President

Wesley Pablo Ovieto Clark - he would be about 53 years old then.
His grandfather, General Wesley Clark was the Democratic Presidential candidate from 2008 through 2016.
He is known for bringing peace to the Middle East. He also took the country back from George Bush and company by signing the abolition of the Patriot Act. He reendorsed the Geneva Accords, and of course endorsed Kyoto. The changes in the automotive industry he insisted on and the advances in use of renewable energy slowed the advance of global warming. Of course, many remember his abolishing the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy in the military and his endorsement of civil unions. It also took great courage for him to convince the country to turn George Bush, Donald Rumsfield, Condoleeza Rice, Paul Wolfowitz and others over to the Hague for their War Crimes Trials. Unfortunately, Vice President Cheney had been treated with a drug coated stent during one of his angioplasties and it unfortunately clotted before he could receive justice at the Hague. His widow, Lynne Cheney, and her lover Laura Bush were allowed to move to Paraguay in exile due to the generosity of President Clark.
From the health point of view, he instituted the presdent single payer system we have that is the envy of the world. Using the tools he had learned in the military, he instituted electronic medical records which cut the costs of health care so that by the end of 6 years, all the 45 million uninsured Americans were covered.
When he took office, only one street, that in Pristina in Kosovo was named after him. Now the road to the airport in Baghdad is Clark Boulevard. The road connecting the thriving sister coutries of Israel and Palestine is Clark Avenue.
President Clark was also noted for his first term Vice President, Barack Obama, who went on to become President in 2016, serving for two terms with his Vice President, Governor Sebelius. His Supreme Court appointments were also very important at that time. Chief Justice Hillary Clinton took over after Justice Roberts' early demise. Justice Russ Feingold and Justice Elliot Spitzer helped bring an era of economic justice.

We can dream, can't we?
