can the people get enough resolve to finally recognize the democratic principal as THE POPULAR VOTE !!


I don't agree with majority rule or mob rule, which is what pure democracy truly is. Instead we have a republic thing going on which allows the minority to veto things that might interfere with their most basic and innate rights.

Democrats might have lost this election to the unpopular vote, maybe, we shall see, but Democrats definitely did not lose the election to Bush Jr. due to the electoral college. That was election theft and the Supreme Court intervening. From what I understand, if a full recount were permitted, Al Gore would have won not only the popular vote, but also the electoral college majority.
