I don't see how history would be changed. Do you?
I don't know if it would be. Have they happened yet? "Would" indicates something in the future.
If "history" WAS changed, in what way does your text indicate that might have been? As a matter of fact, it was the first time presidential candidates debated on TV, and now it's expected. In that way, yes, there was a change.

I think Ms. Sue is right. How does anyone change history?
History is what happened -- in the past! It's over and done with. We can change how we look at it, how we feel about it, whether we agree with what people did or not, but how would any of those change what has happened?
How would you rephrase that question so it makes sense?

Yes, writeteacher is correct, as is Ms.Sue. WOULD we change history? We can't. We can interpret it any number of ways, but we can't change it. But, as I tried to indicate, I don't think that's what you mean.
