      I’d also like to complain about the electoral college again. Anything but going by popular vote is anti-democratic. The American system is so damn infuriating to me and it’s not even my country. But it affects us globally.

    It is befuddling reading the sentiment for the majority of the comments on this post.

    Having a chief executive in office in 2000 who was super concerned about climate change would have made a big difference.

    But hey that’s just like my opinion man

      Would the world have been different with Al Gore? Probably. But it’s easy to make up perfect hypotheticals. Look at what the Democrats actually did in the years after. They basically all voted for the Iraq war, and then when they had a filibuster proof majority in 08, they did practically nothing on climate change.
