The Elian Gonzalez affair
I know, old news, but does it still influence so much today, so many lives today and for the last 8+ years?
Did it change world history as we know it?
I believe it did.

Think about it. Its like alternate timelines.
In the 2000 election Al Gore/Joe Lieberman lost the election by 537 votes in the state of Florida, which cost them the election.
At the time of the election so many Cuban Americans in Florida were very pissed off at Al Gore and the Democratic Party's handling of the whole Elian Gonzalez situation.
I think its safe to say that cost Gore at least 538 Florida votes and the Presidency.

Now the rest is of course subject to speculation.
Gore is President on Sept. 11.
Does it still happen?
If so what does he do?
Does he enter Afghanistan? Iraq?
Does he capture Bin Laden?
Does the country get attacked again?

Does he get re-elected in 2004?
Perhaps a republican wins.
Perhaps Guilliani ( that was his hot time), Perhaps McCain.

Brings us to Obama in 2008
Would he have ever even ran for PREZ?
Leiberman may have been the vice PREZ all the while.
Would Obama have one.

So many possibilities.......I do believe that that little *** changed the course of history immensely.

Whats your theory/s?
