    A1: Tough choices...I think I would prevent the assassination of MLK; such a powerful voice for non violence #sstlap
  • CHitch94 Dec 15 @ 9:12 PM EST
    A1) Probably preventing MLK assassination as I would love to have seen what his work would have looked like into the 70s and 80s. #sstlap
  • book_techjunkie Dec 15 @ 9:13 PM EST
    A1 I'm with Nikki and Chris. What could MLK have accomplished with his future?! #sstlap
  • N_Davidson18 Dec 15 @ 9:13 PM EST
    I can only imagine how he might he influenced the anti war voices as Vietnam carried on #sstlap
    In reply to @CHitch94

    A1) try to change the assassinations, re-plan Tet. #sstlap
  • classroomtools Dec 15 @ 9:13 PM EST
    A1 I'd prevent Nixon from being elected. We'd be much better off today if Humphrey had won. #sstlap
  • scottmpetri Dec 15 @ 9:14 PM EST
    A1 Change James Earl Ray aka Eric Salvo's April 4th assassination of MLK Jr. Great book. https://t.co/i9Pojf7W7k #sstlap

    In reply to @classroomtools
  • Mr_Lisek Dec 15 @ 9:14 PM EST
    A1: MLK is tops on my list. Such a powerful mover of the masses. Would have been amazing to see the world w/his message spread more. #sstlap
  • CHitch94 Dec 15 @ 9:14 PM EST
    Agreed. I would also like to have seen what work he would have continued to do related to poverty. #sstlap

    He opened the Dem party to Civil Rights in 1948, Very liberal, but hampered by being VP during Vietnam War. #sstlap

    A2 The sassy lady in me wants to say get rid of the nylons from 1940. #sstlap
  • classroomtools Dec 15 @ 9:22 PM EST
    A2 I think I'd have intervened to give FDR blood pressure meds (which didn't exist then), so he could have lived out his term. #sstlap

    A2: I would take away the veto from the SC so actions could be taken to stop slaughters like Aleppo #sstlap
  • classroomtools Dec 15 @ 9:23 PM EST
    Had FDR lived, I think the UN would have ended up with much more power, and the Cold War would have been averted. #sstlap
