For Pete's Sake.
Come back when you get a clue. So much for the wonderful powers of the european educational system.

In "The Great Republic" (NOT "Democracy") all votes are certainly not counted. Some by default, some by desing. Oh By The Way- this fact of error rates in ballot counting apply to all countries using those systems . . . not just the U.S. So the system is flawed? |

Checking watch, waiting for apology . . . checking calendar, waiting for

When proved wrong, I admit it. I did so when corrected on the issue of George Washington's title of General. I believed that he had no more right than Osama bin Laden, for example, to assume the title of General. |

President George III joined the US Air Force after being selected as the Air Force's commander-in-chief by a politburo of self-confessed corrupt supreme court judges. George Bush was elected president in accordance with the law. The role of the USSC was only to insure that law was followed. Is it following the law to vote along partisan lines? Or do you think that was pure coincidence? That cuts both ways. It should have been 9-0 in favor of Bush, but four radical justices voted along party lines, as opposed to in accordance with the constitution. (why is it that those who complain about voting along party lines always miss the point that such a thing requires -both- groups to be partisan?) |

Chicago and New York screwed-up by trying to trust the Cubans to elect them. The Cubans don't like Gore. They don't like Kerry either. The Democrats have missed the boat down there since 1963. Who won the popular vote? Nobody knows. All the votes weren't even counted (including many military absentee ballots, especially in states where one candidate won by a margin that was greater than the number of absentee ballots). If they ever do a popular vote, then we'll worry about it. |

Ace: Do your homework. Fact- not opinion, fact- is that eht so-called "popular vote" was undecided. A statistical tie, more accurately. We will *never* know who actually received the most votes, because: 1) Not all votes were counted. It's legal in most places to discard votes if they won't tip the electoral scales. Therefore, in the "Bush" states many Gore votes (and potential additional Bush votes) were discarded, and vice versa. The majority of which were military absentee ballots. |

WE DON'T KNOW- AND PROBABLY CAN'T EVER KNOW- WITH OUR CURRENT TECHNOLOGY AND PROCESSES! I know. It was Bush: 271 votes, he won (actually if I remember, he won 3 times during recounts). |
