    not necessarily. he just would not have moved in that direction policy wise given the politics. clinton was the way he was because of the political climate of the time which was heavily influenced by reagan.

      Could be… But i think the most likely scenario. Would be a a Republican win in 84, not sure who… Could be Papa Bush followed by a Gary Hart Presidency in 88. In which case Clinton wouldn’t even be considered until 96 at the earliest, and by that point his historical moment was over

        yeah I mean all possibilities aside, my point was I would way take the decades of my life being largely run by the democrats over the republicans instead of the 50/50 I got and so I certainly do not want to maximize the republicans time in power.
