Whether it is a Democracy ( upper case D ) in the strictest sense of the word is up to you to decide. It is certainly far more of a democracy (lower case d) than any of the so-called "Democratic or People's Republics" with which this world is infested.

"Ace" wrote in message ... This is very rum. I ask a simple question and I get three different answers. Q: Who had the greater number of votes [popular vote by context] cast in their favour, Bush or Gore? A1: Bush A2: It doesn't matter A3: No one knows Actually, context implies electoral votes simply because the national popular vote is meaningless. I suspect the answer is Gore and you are all wrong. The best answer regarding the national popular vote then is "unknown". The difference was within the margin of error. There were a number of overseas absentee ballots thrown out, those traditionally favor the Republican candidate. There were instances of multiple voting and other fraudulent voting that traditionally favor the Democratic candidate. It's likely more valid votes were actually cast for Bush than for Gore. My information is that Al Gore won 50,999,897 votes and George Bush won 50,456,002 votes. But Bush won more states and more counties than Gore. |

[snip] Bush. He had 271 votes, and Gore had 266: Out of 250,000,000 or so voters? You are changing the question again. No, he's denying your antecedents. that's how you deal with nonsensical questions if you find simply stating "Mu" to be intellectally unsatisfying. And by the way, the total population of the US is something like 270 Million IIRC. Means there's probably something like 100+ Million voters. If you'd ask us your real question I'm sure we could answer it but don't try to restrict the answers to inappropriate values. You'll find trying to lawyer makes you really unpopular.

[snip] No, those who do not follow the law do not have views I believe in. So you are saying that four of the Supreme Court Judges do not follow the law? OK, now here's a question with a short simple answer. Yes! Thats exactly what we are saying. __________________________________________________ _____________________________ Posted Via Uncensored-News.Com - Accounts Starting At $6.95 - http://www.uncensored-news.com The Worlds Uncensored News Source |

Which poor *******(s) are you talking about? A little judicious editing of previous posts would sure help the presentation of whatever idea it is you were trying to present. When it come to vacancy neither major party has the advantage. How to spend the money and get more of it is the main activity in Washington DC. Jack |
