If you had the chance to go back and stop 3 things in US history?


Which ones would you choose?

My choices:

1. Kennedy assassination
2. Lincoln assassination
3. Death of George Washington

reply

Methuselah George Washington or Zombie George Washington?

reply

Slavery
World War II
Lincoln assassination

reply

WW2 wasn't local to the USA

reply

Heck with politicians. I'd go back to Clear Lake Iowa in 1959 to save the music. Just saying.

reply

Good choice.
I'd love to see how Holly would have grown musically.

reply

Absolutely. Three very talented musicians and a young foolish pilot died that night needlessly. I don't blame the pilot as much as the man who owned the airport. But man what music we all missed out on because of that crash.

Slavery
9/11 attack
Trump not republican nominee?

PREVENT OBAMA FROM BEING ELECTED!
i'M JUST SAYING...............

And maybe keep a few people from driving in cars!

reply

1. Save Marilyn from being horribly murdered
2. Prevent the Vietnam war
3. Make the Titanic unsinkable

3. Make the Titanic unsinkable


Other than some people, not a darn thing on the Titanic was US.


My list....serious...

1) Do everything I could to warn about the Pearl Harbor attacks. I'd take an iPad back with me chock full of WW2 and PH footage and data. I'd take calculators, digital watches, and other small technological stuff that would prove I am either from the future or they'd have to think I am from some land FAR ahead of the USA in technology

2) Same with 9-11 in regards to iPad full of images and TV footage.

3) I'd prevent me from going to the Labor Day weekend 1990 event that has pretty much ruined my physical life since.


Comical list....

Prevent the births of

1) Kanye West
2) Michael Moore
3) Barbara Streisand (even though, sadly, we'd then lose "Evergreen"). Can't STAND her outside of her singing.

reply

1. Rap Music
2. Ronald Reagan
3. The invention of car alarms

reply

Napster.
Myspace.
Facebook.


The first transport is away... hey!

Prevent obama from being elected.
Give hillary's dad a rubber.
