the same but with more refugees, failed green energy projects, and degeneracy

>No Iraq war
>No ISIS
>No Syria civil war
>No Refugees
>Some more environmental regulations

Small price.

>No ISIS
>No Syria civil war

Nigger, those two events happened way after Bush left office and were the result of Obango not intervening, unless you're meaning Obango wouldn't have gotten elected

Guy is a scammer.

He practically owned all the carbon offset companies when he put his 'documentary'.

How would ISIS have formed with Saddam in charge?

>Higher Taxes
>Prolonged recession
>More immigration
>More refugees

But most importantly

>President John McCain

They formed in Syria, then spread into Iraq after we pulled out. The Arab Spring would have still happened, and would have happened in Iraq (under Saddam), so they could have still spilled into Iraq regardless

Watch 'The One'. They're forced to upgrade Law Enforcement to futuristic to handle crime.

Technically ISIS got started as AQI during the Iraq War. They didn't even get along with Papa Al Qaeda because even Al Qaeda thought they were a but extreme with the amount sectarian violence they were causing. Towards the end of the war and our draw down they laid low until we were gone and reemerged to start more instability once Iraq's shitty govt started eatting itself alive.

9/11 would not have happened because Cheney wouldn't have been able to set it up. Airline service would still suck cock, don't get too many delusions here. Probably more guberment spending on education, nasa, and the environment and all that other hippie feel good stupid shit.

Do you really think that the foreign policy of the Bush Administration had no effect on the creation of ISIS (a group formed after the invasion of Iraq, a decision of the Bush administration despite no adequate reasoning)

Do you really think the Syrian Civil War (escalated by the Obama administration funding of rebels) wasn't affected by the Bush administration which created the political backlash against the Republican party and policies during the 2008 election, securing Obama's presidency?

Gore wouldn't have invaded Iraq (ISIS) and would have been replaced by Republicans in 2008 which may have not been sympathetic to Syrian rebels (Syrian Civil War)

-No Bush tax cuts, therefore we could have continued to have budget surpluses as we did with Clinton. Our national debt would be below 10 trillion as opposed to 19 trillion
-No Iraq War, therefore no Syrian civil war as Saddam Hussein would have bolstered up Assad, therefore no rapefugees and no ISIS.
-The 2008 Crash would not have been as severe because Democrats actually believe in common sense regulations
-The US would have a national bullet train system, more fuel-efficient cars, and be leading the world in green technology

Basically, the American Dream would still be alive if Gore had won. Bush II is by far the worst post-WWII president.

The Recession still would have happened, McCain would have gotten elected, the Middle East would still be shit.

All presidents are working towards the same goal, doesn't matter whether they're Democrats or Republicans.

>No Iraq War
lol
>The 2008 Crash would not have been as severe because Democrats actually believe in common sense regulations
Maybe after the crash actually happens. Before the crash itself, there was a pretty strong bipartisan movement against regulation of wall street. Much of congress has been captured.
>The US would have a national bullet train system
my sides

Wrong. They started in '04, in Iraq, in resistance to the invasion. They moved in to Syria when the civil war began.

Bush founded ISIS.

Lockbox.

Moderation all around.

It would have seemed a lot like a continuation of the Clinton years with a Democratic President having to work with a GOP House and Senate. There would have been a moderate consensus on taxes, the economy, and trade. Gore would have pushed for environmental regulation and likely have failed, instead opting to use the executive branch in ways similar to how Obama has recently done. This would have been the obvious course of action after the Senate overwhelmingly votes down the Kyoto Protocol. The 2000 recession would have bottomed out in early '02 and begun to recover by the time of the 2004 election. While the economy would be relatively strong, the "boom" would be gone with the public being more amenable to conservative economic arguments including tax cuts. There'd be a lot of "what if" thinking.

This will certainly be controversial...but many people forget that in early-mid 2001 the primary focus of the national security establishment empowered by Bush-Cheney was the continued and rapid development of the 'missile shield' or SDI at the expense of everything else including terrorism. It's not entirely out of the question that a national security establishment run by leadership appointed by Al Gore, many of them hold overs from the Clinton years who had experience with Al Qaeda, would have been able to prevent 9/11. Without 9/11 there would have been no Iraq War.

the jews may have not gone through with 9/11.

President Clinton 1992-2000
President Gore 2000-2008
President Rick Perry 2008-2012
President Rodham Clinton 2012-

If Gore had gotten in we would never have known about obama. Can't believe him beating Bush would have been for the greater good

McCain would have definitely been elected and would have been a principled, moderate Republican. The GOP would likely be a strong, vibrant party today rather than an absolute train wreck with Trump as the conductor.

Non-SJW center-left Democrat here. Every other Dem I know says they'd rather have Gore in 2000 than Obama in '08. They'd take that deal any day. That is how bad a fuck up Bush and his whole crew really were.

>-The 2008 Crash would not have been as severe because Democrats actually believe in common sense regulations
b-but Clinton helped deregulate the banking system leading TOO BIG TOO FAIL BANKS

>President Clinton's tenure was characterized by economic prosperity and financial deregulation, which in many ways set the stage for the excesses of recent years. Among his biggest strokes of free-wheeling capitalism was the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which repealed the Glass-Steagall Act, a cornerstone of Depression-era regulation. He also signed the Commodity Futures Modernization Act, which exempted credit-default swaps from regulation. In 1995 Clinton loosened housing rules by rewriting the Community Reinvestment Act, which put added pressure on banks to lend in low-income neighborhoods. It is the subject of heated political and scholarly debate whether any of these moves are to blame for our troubles, but they certainly played a role in creating a permissive lending environment.

HAHAHAH HOLY SHIT

The GOP deserves to be destroyed

You are too moderate and cannot be called right wing.

Obama wouldn't have elected without Bush

Would have been

Gore
McCain
Clinton
Romney
and then Sanders

>even though Obama made the Bush tax cuts permanent
>even though Hillary bullied Obama into fueling the Libyan opposition for literally no reason -- we have to keep bombing ISIS there now, 5 years later
>Clinton repealed Glass-Steagal, Community Reform Act -- pushed by Dems -- is arguably a contributing factor to why so many subprime loans existed in the first place
>Amtrak will kill anyone that tries

I say this as someone who protested the Bush Administration before I could even vote and then supported Obama in 2008, but let's be honest with ourselves: there is no more Democrat party...Obama didn't prosecute a single person for the 2008 crisis, bombed 8 countries, signed the Patriot Act, signed the NDAA, signed the Bush tax cuts. Wow, we got one shitty healthcare act that nobody understands, I'm totally ready for Bush 4.0 with Hillary

world peace
