Journal prezkennedy.org's Journal: What if in the Year 2020...

I haven't used this section much at all yet, so I figured it was time to pull it out of the filling cabinet and put it to use. I'll pick an arbitrary year sometime in the future, and try to make some guesses about what may or may not be happening at that time. Hopefully at least one of them will be correct when that time finally arrives. (I originally wrote this for my own site, PrezKennedy.org.

What if:
  • the best cars were made in Mexico?
  • the latest craze was to wear your pants inside out?
  • there wasn't a Kennedy in the U.S. Congress?
  • spam was 99% of all e-mail?
  • GMail accounts started getting full?
  • the world survived the re-election of George W. Bush?
  • computers had 1 terabyte hard drives?
  • Nintendo made a comeback as a handheld only company?
  • China had invaded Taiwan and Japan and controlled them?
  • North Korea had used a nuke against San Fransisco?
  • Iran exists as another democratic republic after a U.S. invasion?
  • PrezKennedy.org finally had more than fifty visitors a day?
  • Blogging went out of style?
  • Star Trek: The Next Next Generation was making its rounds as reruns?
  • Star Wars had finally been milked to the point of utter exhaustion?
  • Micheal Moore wrote Fahrenheit 11/2: How Bush Got Elected Five Times?
  • France finally grew a backbone?
  • game consoles were only the size of today's optical mice?

Scary thoughts... very scary thoughts!! :-o
