if you could wave a magic wand and replace Bush with...

[mrhopeforwes]

who would it be?

...and it has to be someone who fits the rules, like over 35 and american.

[Arkana]

1. Gore.

Seeing as how he is kinda the rightful President. Or Kerry, seeing as how he is probably the rightful President now.

[mrhopeforwes]

25. well, with Magic involved, why not just go with who's best?

[AX10]

2. President Albert Gore

[mrhopeforwes]

26. why do u say that, yet have the clark emblem?

[LaurenG]

3. Jon Stewart for fun

Howard Dean in all seriousness.

[mrhopeforwes]

28. may I ask why you think Dean brings more gravitas and experience to the

table? ....at least with THE critical issue of the day. ...I just dont't think it would suffice for clark to be relegated to sec of defense.

...and just cuz the people would have to accept it (under genie rules), it doesn't mean they would be as acquiescent as they would be to a President Clark.

...unless you know something i don't

[LaurenG]

34. He thinks like me, I want someone to tell the truth and

kick butt and take names. He is just so human and real and he is a tough cookie. Nothing at all against Clark, I like him, Dean just came to mind first that's all.

[mrhopeforwes]

47. glad to hear that you see that Clark also has all those traits...

you should have seen ex-deaniacsforclark.com

[Nitrogenica]

4. Easy choice....Dennis Kucinich

[Sapphocrat]

40. Seconded. n/t

[info being]

51. Thirded!

[TahitiNut]

60. Fourthed.

Without a doubt.

[kurth]

5. A doorknob. A doorknob would have done less damage.

[blm]

53. A doorknob wouldn't open BCCI books - John Kerry would.

I want ONLY a Democrat who will open up all the books on BCCI.

[kliljedahl]

6. Me, if I had a magic wand

Keith’s Barbeque Central

[rpannier]

7. Me

I know where I stand on every issue.

[cascadiance]

8. That would be an interesting movie plot...

Most time paradox themes make it so that people want to restore the original timeline and try to "correct" the changes made in the time line to do so.

I wonder if we'd have more of a plot dilemna that would tear at viewers' emotions if someone came from the future and wanted to alter it to have Bush not be elected in 2000 and instead have Gore win then. Would you like that timeline shift, or would we run the risk of messing things up to much if we did that. There might be just as many people that would like risking switching to that alternate future timeline (as much as it might mess with people's lives over the last 5 years), over "staying the course" with this criminal cabal in charge.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

45. Sliders. Best. sci-fi. series. ever

different worlds. different details in each world. very cool.

[Lena inRI]

9. No brainer. . Wesley Clark

:toast:

[mrhopeforwes]

23. Exactly! NO-BRAINER!!!

....if you leave me your email address I'll forward you an advance copy of the short story I'm getting published soon about what a mistake it was not to have Clark as the nominee.

[Ioo]

10. A Tick-Tack-Toe playing Chicken would be better

[madeline_con]

38. Or even one that "dances" because of the electrical current. n/t

[Inland]

11. Myself, and I'd use the other two wishes on personal competence

and a million dollars.

[Pam-Moby]

12. Gore/ Kerry or Gore/Clark

:applause:

edit boo boo

[Warpy]

13. Kerry, and here's why:

http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/features/2004/0409.sirota.html

The Bushes would have done anything to keep him out of office because of his earlier work. I feel sure they'd have assassinated him had he gotten enough votes to compensate for the nationwide election fraud.

[Divine Discontent]

22. interesting indeed!!!!!!!!!!!! N/T

still love kerry, even if at TIMES he mumbles on too long. he has heart, intelligence, and honor, and he talked to me DIRECTLY, DURING one of his oct.04 rallies saying in response to my "oh yeah!", "well I'm sure you certainly know what Pres. Bush has done to this country, but I'm gonna say it one more time, this Pres. has....." he didn't expect the oh yeah, when he asked if we knew what Bush had done to us all for four years, which made him laugh, and he waved to me walking along the street by myself, with no one else around, when driving away from another rally, in his SUV, would Bush have done that? Well, probably not because my middle finger would have been sticking up before he even went by!

[blm]

57. We're on the same page - This current world begins and ends w/BCCI

Everything else is bullshit analysis meant to distract from that reality while Dem and GOP strategists and pundits pocket millions for their "bogus" analysis, left and right.

[longship]

14. Al Gore.

No question about it. No need to think hard about it.
I have no doubt of whom I would choose.

[OffWithTheirHeads]

15. Goofy (the Mickey mouse Goofy)

Would be better than this dufus.

[mandyky]

16. Howard Dean

I worked hard for it but it didn't happen, so let me play with that magic wand! :)

[karlrschneider]

17. A used flashbulb.

:grr:

[MissWaverly]

18. John Murtha

He's smart, he has taken a stand advocating a radical change in Iraq, and he is closely associated with the military and liked by the military and He's is honest. And could
I have a second wish and have Wesley Clark for vp and while were at it how about
Fitz for A.G. and Max Cleland for Secretary for Defense.

[in_cog_ni_to]

19. WES CLARK!

He's my man. :loveya: He'd be one of the BEST presidents this country ever had. No doubt in my mind. The man is BRILLIANT...except for that flag burning issue.:(

[mrhopeforwes]

29. pssst, fellow Clarkie....

leave me your email address and I'll forward you my short story all about it (and why he's actually brilliant with the flag issue too).

[in_cog_ni_to]

31. Will do.

:hi:

[in_cog_ni_to]

44. self delete

[Divine Discontent]

20. TWO THOUGHTS ----------

If we were being fair, it would be to replace Bush with President Albert Gore Jr.

If we want to replace with someone who could do the best for us right now in this predicament??????


WESLEY CLARK.

[Gingergal]

21. Albert Gore Jr.

n/t

[AX10]

32. I agree with you.

[countingbluecars]

24. Gore n/t

[Divine Discontent]

27. think Gore'd run again? maybe him and clinton as VP?

I'll take that or even Clark or Obama as VP?

[B Calm]

30. President Mike Malloy & Vice President Randi Rhodes

[Pam-Moby]

36. LOL I love them both, but I think its not going to happen. LOL

[Lena inRI]

49. Better roles for them would be. . .

Press Secretary Randi Rhodes

The People's Ombudsman Mike Malloy

I don't want the promotion to take either off the airwaves. . .I rely so much on their commentary. . .my RDA for the soul.

:loveya: :loveya:

[ThatsMyBarack]

33. George Clooney

How about it??

[stray cat]

35. Russ Feingold

and many many others.....would still be better than Bush.

[lpbk2713]

37. Gore / Clark

The rethugs wouldn't know how to act with decent people in control.

[Taxloss]

39. Gore. By which I mean, Gore Vidal.

Best president America never had.

[elfin]

41. Either Bill Bradley (remember him??) or Wes Clark

assuming Bill Clinton is not available for constitutional reasons.

[BreweryYardRat]

42. Gore, Clark, or Kerry.

[emdee]

43. Gotta replace Cheney too - so Gore/Kerry, I think.

What a nice daydream!
:patriot:

He'd be able to fix us with a flick of his wand.

[Lilith Velkor]

54. Jimmy Carter

He's tan, rested and ready. :D

[Wizard777]

55. This is the bad news.

Wizard is more than a screen name for me. It's what I am. Even my magic wand cannot do that. There is no getting around impeachment. I would even use the magic word treason. Sorry, but Bush's wild fantasies are more than enough.

[triguy46]

56. Atticus Finch

[SharonRB]

58. Any combination of two of the following:

Gore
Kerry
Clark
