I would wipe out console gaming back in 2011.

The art school actually recommended him to study architecture. Perhaps it would be more fruitful to encourage encouraging him to pursue architecture.

"I saw this production of Our American Cousin at Ford's Theater just the other night, Mr. President. It's not worth watching. You're better off just staying home."

Keep Stalin from reaching power.

Convince wilhelm II of the pragmatism of continuing Bismark's foreign policy to avoid war.

Completely superceding almost everything that has so far been posted by preventing them in the first place.

Maybe, I mean he did have some flair on that regard.

All taste I suppose, but I find 3rd reich architecture and a lot of Albert speers proposed remodelling of Berlin absolutely bombastically awful looking but that's just me, I can see how it's overpowering impressiveness could excite. I do like the Olympic stadium in Berlin however.

I would make Franz Ferdinand live.

I'd prevent Augusto Pinochet from being born.

Show the guys who developed agriculture that they had it better off already.

A gambit pursued by the foolish, the drunk, and the mortals.

And therefore prevent the dawn of the modern world; modern medicine, communications, travelling, etc.

Yaaay to being stillborn or dying at a young age for many!

Ensure the Provisional Government defeated the Bolsheviks during the Russian Revolution and have them set up a nice Russian Republic.

Of-course I show up, and kindly freeze you before said change.

I may have wasted my change, but it was for the good of humanity.

I'm tempted to say I'd annul Hitler, but I'm not sure what a world without the outcome of World War II would look like and I'm quite sure it wouldn't look very good. So instead, I'd prevent the 1973 oil crisis, which means Carter would have gained a second term (annulling Reagan and his fucked up foreign policy) and that the Western world wouldn't have suffered one of the most turbulent eras in its economic history.

I'd prevent Jimmy carter from being elected. His 4 years did far more damage to this country than Reagan ever did. Giving him 4 more years could've changed the outcome of the Cold War.
