Install myself as overlord of the planet. Emperor Doc the First.
Either that or make all hot women irresistibly attracted to me.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I'll give a serious answer.
If I could change something in this world I would wipe out prejudice/hate/war.

Hard to tinker with such a complex system. Unforseen consequences.
Increasing the human capacity to understand the world...that would be a
good start. Without that, all changes are more or less trial and error.

True, but I'd like to eliminate humanity's capacity for cruelty and see what that does to the equilibrium ...

Yeah, me too. For that to happen mankind would have to re-evaluate its priorities and stamp a higher value on human life. A new global political way of thinking would have to emerge, transcending all the differences between cultures, races and religions.
Cant see that happening. It's a shame we hate our planet and each other so much. All over patches of land and religous beliefs. It's a shame our happiness seems dictated by, as Douglas Adams would say, 'the movement of small green pieces of paper' (thats money, for the benefit of the un-enlightened)

Go into a time machine, goe to the year 1954, hypnotise ELVIS to do PROG ROCK N ROLL and be the pioneer of it so later on in life all of BEATLES will be PROG and PROG will rule from there on and in 2005 destroy Dance and Hip Hop and convert them into Electronic Prog Stars.
No serious I abondon war and badness.

Could you distribute some to me, please?
Sorry, cheap shot, I know
How about removing the very concept of fossil fuels and nuclear power from history; mankind would have been forced to find or develop different sources of energy, no middle eastern crises based on oil-envy (no matter what the powers-that-be say the issues are...) and global warming would be blamed solely on the huge amounts of methane emitted by cows.

Ok. I'll be serious here, or at least somewhat serious. I would like to live in a world where every man, woman and child consider themselves to be first and foremost human beings, and for all cultural, racial, national and religious differences to take second place. Only when every white, black, hispanic, arab, hebrew, catholic, protestant, muslim, straight, gay, male, female, and so on, make our differences secondary in our mind, and realize that we all have the same genetic coding, will we ever truly attain peace in our world.
But since that's never gonna happen, I say kill everyone who isn't like me.

Where would you start? You'd have to wipe out entire nations, and that's hardly PC is it (Progressively correct)

Are you suggesting that before the Utopia emerges we would have to 'cut out the dead wood' ??
