1.I would stop the ability to build nuclear weapons...the threat that they pose sends chills down my spine.
2. I would stop the assassination of Martin Luther King...It would have been great for him to have lived to see the inauguration of the first black president.
3. I would change the name of the person who started microsoft from Bill Gates to my own...that way I would be the richest woman in the world. hehehe.

Hiya (: This is a very intresting question! Firstly, I would change the holocaust, because what those 6 million jews had to face was horrific, and morally and humanly, it shouldn't happen to ANYONE regardless of what they look like, or what there eye colour is. Secondly I would change the first world war, and I wish I could just show everyone how easy world peace is if everyone communicates correctly in those times. And thirdly, I would bring the human rights act way before when it was introducted, so there wasn't no racism, to black people. Thanks for the question; 'twas really intresting! :)

Yes, yes and yes, give peace a chance and loving each other as equals what a wonderful world it would be if we were able to do that.

To be honest, I would never want to go back in time, purely because life is a series of lessons and if history hadn't happened the way it did, then we wouldn't have learned any lessons from it.
I personally think we learn to improve from the mistakes we can see in history. We learn and grow, or some of us do anyway, lol, from what history teaches us. Besides, none of us would be the same person, were we able to time travel. Nope... onward and upward is my path, growing from the lessons that lie behind me.
Brightest Blessings.
