Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 527: Meeting the President

Forrest Gump was a simple-minded man. He clearly has an intellectual disability, but Forrest definitely had some cognitive hyper-functions along with his disabilities that sometimes made him do tasks that normally other ordinary people couldn't.

He had a seemingly unwavering focus on whatever he set his mind on doing. As Alexander noticed from Gumps's records that he had even received the Expert Rifleman Qualification Badge, the highest marksmanship badge available in the Army.

It was even clearer now as Alexander was seeing him play ping pong in the military hospital. He knew what was going to happen soon. Forrest would become a national ping pong player.

Alexander didn't meddle in his life anymore and went out to see what he could do about the world. 70% Purity needed to be risen somehow and there was no big bad villain to defeat.

From what Alexander remembered. Many conflicts were going on around the world right now. The biggest one was the Vietnam war. The war was continued to be fought by the U.S. to avoid the humiliation of losing it. It was doing nothing but increasing the body count of both sides. North Vietnam was still winning and South Vietnam, which was promised freedom and democratic liberty, was also not in very good shape because of multiple changes in administration in a span of few years.

Alexander called Dobby out and asked him to start the plan. They were going to stop both sides from fighting.

"Dobby, take over North Vietnam and make the south stronger. Then establish a government. Communism sounds good on paper but it never works out. Even if the first leader is good and truly makes his country great, the next one would come and destroy everything. Most government officials also don't practice true communism as they are most of the time more interested in filling their own pockets while knowing they would face no consequences." Alexander instructed.

"Okay, boss." Dobby simply left.

Alexander meanwhile went to the U.S. They were about to land on the moon and end the space race. What Alexander was going to do was keep the space race going.

Not for the sake of war or superiority but because it would be valuable for the future. So many inventions would be made. But, he would also need to visit USSR and do something to end the cold war.

It was time the countries stop relying on their military power and instead focused on increasing their economical power. If the world was rich, people would be happy. But of course, the money should also be earned by the common folks too.

...

Apollo 11 had successfully reached the moon and Alexander was headed to the White House to have a talk with President Richard Nixon.

He went straight into the Oval Office. He knew the floorplan of the White House like the back of his hand. He didn't even remember how many times he had gone to this place. Now the white-ish building didn't look as good as it used to initially to him.

When he entered the room. The man was smoking a cigar and there was a glass of whiskey on the table. He knew that the man had a drinking problem.

"Hmm, what is this? A gas chamber?" Alexander grunted and went to the windows to open them.

Nixon was shocked as he looked at the strange man walking around in his office. When the man sat on the visitor's chairs, he spoke.

"Who the hell are you?"

Alexander already had a plan. He lifted his one hand and showed Nixon his palm. Then suddenly a bright shining halo appeared behind Alexander's head. He looked godly enough to remind everyone who he was.

"What is this? April fool's day prank?" Nixon asked.

*Sigh*

Alexander then started hovering in the air.

"Ah, nice trick. I've seen this one too. You got a platform under your ass hidden inside those robes don't you." Nixon retorted.

Alexander had no other choice so he just pointed his hand to Nixon. Soon, the president was also hovering in the air.

"Now you understand who I am," Alexander asked.

Nixon was a Quaker. Quakers believe that there is something of God in everybody and that each human being is of unique worth. This was why Quakers value all people equally and oppose anything that may harm or threaten them. Though Alexander couldn't say that Nixon was a true Quaker.

"God?" Nixon asked with widened eyes.

Alexander nodded. He was a real god after all. Now his father had even made him official.

"Sit, Richard. I have something important to talk to you about. The heavens are very unhappy with you. At the current rate, you will be going to hell. You drink and smoke all day. And what's this, you have even expanded the Vietnam war to Cambodia and Laos. Is this how a man of God should act?" Alexander asked. Obviously, he was making stuff up. But Nixon would still go to hell for his sins. Politicians rarely go to the heavens.

Nixon was shocked. "What? But how? I am fighting the communists. I have also worked so much for the education of our people."

Alexander shook his head. "But for a man sitting in the most powerful position in the world, you have not done enough. Now, do as I say and you may get a chance to go to heaven. Stop the Vietnam war, I will deal with all that, and soon you will be seeing the news that Vietnam was unified and has established a democratic government. After that, your job would be to help Vietnam grow as the U.S. did with Japan and South Korea, but make sure you don't drown them in your debts.

"Then, I want you to continue the space race even after the moon landing. Soon, Leonid Brezhnev will be contacting you to sign a peace treaty and start a joint space program to reach Mars and start a colony there.

"USSR will be breaking up soon and then you will continue these treaties with Russia. I will make sure that no technology is used to make weapons. Your main job is to be a harbinger of peace, economic, and scientific development. I am telling you, Nixon. If you do as I say, you will be remembered as a legend for ages to come."

Nixon tried to speak many times while Alexander was speaking but he didn't allow him to.

*Ring Ring*

The silence was broken by the telephone on the table.

"Pick it, it's important." Alexander nudged him.

Nixon picked it up and only listened. He didn't say anything and just hung up.

"You really ended the Vietnam war and they want to establish a democratic government. How?" Nixon asked.

Alexander chuckled, "Did you forget who I was?"

"Ah, of course, for a god nothing should be impossible. Thank you for enlightening my path. I will do as you said. I will send my best diplomats to Vietnam to help and I will also increase Nasa's budget. Anything else I should do?" Nixon asked. Now he had blind faith in Alexander.

"Oh, yes, you should focus on healthcare and education in the country. Healthy and educated citizens are the future after all. Also, there is a kind man named Forrest Gump whom you gave a medal of honor not long ago. I want you to hire him as the face of the American dream." Alexander advised him.

"That kid who showed me his butt? What's so special about him?" Nixon asked.

"Haha, tell your men to investigate. You will find him to be very special." Alexander cryptically replied and flew up.

"Best of luck with your future, Nixon. You have the quill of your life. It is on you if you want to write something good or bad." Alexander warned him and vanished.

Nixon gulped his saliva as he just realized the kind of encounter he just had. The moment Alexander disappeared, he picked up his phone and called people frantically.
