A thoughtful person can really blow their minds by thinking what would have happened if something else had happened. We all know General Mead defeated Lee by defending Cemetery Ridge. What if he had let Lee have the Ridge without his artillery, extra ammunition, food, and water? It would have been a huge prison camp because his supply train was miles away.

            What if Mayor Daly’s car had been t-boned as it came out of his parking lot killing him before the 1960 Presidential election? Would Nixon have won then before he became paranoid?

            What if English private Henry Kent decided to shoot Adolph Hitler during WWI instead of letting him go? Would another person have been able to cause Germany to rearm and start WWII?

            What if Roger Ailes had not been able to convince a few rich right wing Republicans they needed to create a huge rift in America and in particular within the GOP. The idea was to cut out moderates like Bush I. Would someone else have gotten Fox News and it offshoots started? Would Trump have ever been considered a candidate?

            Imagine how America would have not changed if two Supreme Court Justices had voted to count the hanging chads on the ballots giving Florida and the Electoral College to Gore?  Gore would have continued to try to kill Ben Laden and would not have gone into Iraq again.

            How many times in your own life could you have come to a fork in the road and could have taken the other road changing your life?
