Soon after his election of 2000, President Bush learns he actually did not win the election. Rather, he finds the recount was rigged, and that the triumvirate of Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Rove who have viewed him as a sock puppet that they can control, were the ones who rigged the election.
Bush is outraged and humiliated that he again has failed to achieve his goal by his own merit. His rage is so great that he immediately has the troika imprisoned in Guantanamo Bay for pulling a peaceful coup. The three conspirators are tried, found guilty of fomenting insurrection, sentenced to death, and hanged.. After this rather speedy but fair justice, the twin towers attack occur. This time, with rational advisors, Bush acts appropriately in Afghanistan. The United States, along with Norway, the United Kingdom, and a coalition of the just, remove the Taliban, destroy al Quaeda, and capture Bin Laden.
Bush then admits he was AWOL during Viet Nam, had a drug and drinking problem, resigns from the Presidency, and concedes that Al Gore won. He then writes a series of best selling children books about a goat, and his wife illustrates the book. One of the books wins the Newbury Prize. Having achieved success for once on his own with his literary works, Bush finally feels he achieved something worthwhile on his own. He becomes a beloved figure in America.
