So, I bought this book for my son from one of those price clubs. The book was Scholastic Encyclopedia of the Presidents and Their Times and it is aimed at young kids to teach them about each U.S. President. Well, the book is very well done, able to keep the interest of any child or addle-brained adult. But imagine my surprise when I opened the Presidential table of contents to see this:

The first thing I thought was, Holy Shit, this has got to be worth something! The next time I went to the bookstore, I checked the book out and it was historically correct which means that mine should be worth something to some John Kerry supporters who would like to build themselves a fantasy wall of what could have happened.

So, I'm encouraging all readers (regardless of their political affiliation--all points of view are welcome here) to leave a comment about what they think the world would look like on this 9/11 had John Kerry won last year's election.

And if you're uncomfortable leaving a message, feel free to vote in the anonymous poll in the right sidebar about whether you think the country is better off or not since the 2004 election.

I honestly don't think it would look all that different right now but I'm interested to see what you think.
