What if the recent protests in Iran were successful, resulting in a revolution, and the overthrow of the Iranian President Ahmadinejad and Ayatollah Ali Khameni?

How would the revolution actually happen, and what would be the immediate fallout from it?

We don't know, as we haven't had enough time to see. This is more accurately future history, as the events are still ongoing and unresolved.
 
The moderate/less wacky presidential candidate become president and he will have a little stronger mandate to reform the Iranian society due to the show of force that brought him to power.
 
Iran would slowly become more and more democratic, and open to the West. However, this would probably take decades, and would be a lot more peaceful than what will probably happen in OTL.
