Mike- with all due respect- I am not a college kid- I am in my 40's, run
two successful business, and own a string of rental properties. I have a
background in working proudly to advance the democratic agenda. Hell, I
even played with Bon Jovi at the last (President) Gore rally here in town.
I know quite a bit about economics and political science. I went to school
as a music major, but had minors in political science and computer science.
Therefore, I really don't need you to explain the electoral college to me.
Boy George was not elected via the popular vote, nor the electoral vote. He
was appointed by the Supreme Court, as a representation that the good old
boy network can still fix an election. His brother promised him the state
of Florida, and delivered it. Yes, the way they did it was very clever, but
it will never happen again. Bush is an embarrassment to me and my country-
and now we are faced with the prospect of going to war with a third world
country to avenge his daddy. Yes, the world just keeps getting better every
day-
