ParticipantI am 53 now and too old but I didn’t earlier because I didn’t want to serve the country that way.
Are you in the military?

ParticipantWe are a Republic and not a Democracy. The electoral college is the vehicle through which the president is elected.
As far as a crooked set up you would have to acknowledge that it was pretty crooked of Gore to want to only recount the democratic votes. Had Gore insisted to begin with to recount the entire state it would have been ok but then again he didn’t because it was not to his advantage.
Ironically Clinton is trying to circumvent the protocols the democrats set up to elect its nominee by using the same tactics and rhetoric that Gore used against Bush which was to claim that the popular vote should matter and not the delegate vote.
Read what Pelosi said about that.

“But what if one candidate has won the popular vote and the other candidate has won the delegates?” asked Stephanopoulos.
“But it’s a delegate race,” Pelosi replied. “The way the system works is that the delegates choose the nominee.”
Well Nancy, that is the way the president is elected too. She can’t have it both ways.

PS Bush got a dui while in college during a summer visit at his home in Maine which accounts for his “criminal record”.
