6. who says it would still have ocurred?
Do you think that 9/11 still would have occurred under Al Gore? I'm sure Gore would have continued every single anti-terror policy set forth by the Clinton administration. I can't believe Gore would have gone on a month-long vacation after receiving a memo titled "Bin Laden Determined to Attack in US." We should seriously consider that the attacks may never have happened under Gore.

Sure, it's very possible the attacks still would have occurred, but I just can't help but think that they would either have been less massive or would not have happened at all. (Can you see Gore just sitting in that classroom reading "My Pet Goat"? I sure can't.)

Nader's a complete idiot; he might actually be stupider and more insane than shrub himself. There's no way Gore would have invaded Iraq. The Iraq invasion was mixture of oil, Neoconservative wishes for hegemony, and a personal vendetta of shrub himself. The only factor of those that would have been present in a Gore administration would have been oil, but it wouldn't have had the same influence as it does with shrub and Mr. Halliburton at the helm.
