130. I agree 100% with Nader on this one, Skinner
Look at the record. Absolutely I believe we would have been involved in a military action against Iraq had Gore been president. Of course, there would have been a huge difference between what we had under Bush and what would have happened under Gore. The military action would have ended up being a multi-national peace keeping force after the ouster of Hussein from power, but a military action nonetheless.

That's a far cry from a unilateral "pre-emptive" invasion, but the record shows clearly that there was a breakdown in diplomatic efforts with Iraq and some form of military action was going to be necessary.
