George W. Bush (George H. Bush's son)vs Al Gore ( Clinton's VP)
Bush v. Gore, 531 U.S. 98 (2000), was a United States Supreme Court case heard on December 11, 2000. In a per curiam opinion, by a vote of 7-2, the Court held that the Florida Supreme Court's method for recounting ballots was unconstitutional, and by a vote of 5-4, the Court held that no alternative method could be established within the time limits established by Florida Legislature.[1] The per curiam opinion was argued on the basis of Equal Protection.[2]
The decision stopped the recount that was occurring in Florida and allowed Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris's previous certification of George W. Bush as the winner of Florida's electoral votes to stand. Florida's 25 electoral votes gave Bush, the Republican candidate, 271 electoral votes, defeating Democrat Al Gore, who ended up with 266 electoral votes (with one District of Columbia elector abstaining). A majority (270) of the electoral votes are needed to win the Presidency or Vice Presidency in the Electoral College.
2001 9-11 Terrorists affiliated with al-Qaeda hijacked 4 commercial passenger jet airliners and two crashed into the WTC and one into the Pentegon and in a field in Pennesylvania.
America unites to fight war on terrorism. In 2003 US led Un forces invade Iraq to find WMDs and hunt down Saadam Hussien. 
War in Iraq goes on through Bush's Presidency.
