    ...had been the President for the past four years and Sarah Palin the Vice President how would things be different?

    I can think of one most likely thing. They'd be running for re-election.

    Well, we would not have Obamacare. And I doubt Fisker, Solyndra, etc.would have out moneys. That might result in only being $14T in debt.

    There's no way of knowing how McCain and his State Department would have reacted to a request for additional security in Benghazi, but I doubt it would have been the same as Obama.

    I would have emigrated to Canada? Although, who really wants to live next to a smoking crater? :eek:

    The inhabitants of the Arctic Circle certainly don't like being referred to as living in a "smoking crater". After migrating to Canada, you could have emigrated back to the U.S. which would be a much better place now than under Obama's rule.

    I'm almost sure that you are trying to say something clever but I am confident that you have failed miserably.

    Will you leave if Romney is elected? Maybe you can get Baldwin and Penn to go with you and head south to Columbia or Cuba, that should be a perfect fit for you all.

    None of these 5%'ers are going anywhere regardless of what they promise. Susan Sarandon, Tina Fey, Akon, JoeNation - none of them...they aren't going anywhere. They already don't have to pay their fair share so why would they leave?

    As far as what would be different...honestly...I think not a lot. Probably a little less debt but more military intervention. Despite how they try to paint these big differences, I don't think there is much 'nation changing' difference between either of the two partys or their candidates.

    I guess one difference is that more people would still be going bankrupt because they couldn't get coverage for pre-existing conditions when they lost their jobs and thus lost health insurance. I'm curious to know what McCain would have done with the wars, though. Would he have put troops on the ground in Libya? And, how come everyone keeps harping about those four people who got killed there, and nobody mentions the thousands of our men and women who gave their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan? Seems to me that Iraq and Afghanistan are far bigger issues than Libya.

    A realistic answer. That's why I like it.
