The reported % for Obama was 51.06% in 2012. It was the first time ever that a president won a second term with fewer popular votes than in his first election. Considering all the fraud and cheating that went on, the real % for him was probably under 50%. In other words, there is a pretty high probability that Romney would be president today had the election been conducted honestly.
But the breakdown in order and reason are important symptoms of the decadence you accurately describe. And a lot of that decadence is due to a decrease in the intelligence of the population as a whole, just as Murray and Herrnstein predicted in "The Bell Curve."
But hell, intelligent people still know their American history and still know that Vincent Foster was murdered on July 20, 1993. Forgetting about it completely only serves the interests of those thugs who perpetrated the crime.
Of course I agree. However, if 1 remembers and the 25 forget, the lesson is not learned. Mention "Vince Foster" next time you're on line at the supermarket. You'll learn what "Dumbed Down" is all about.
In regard to Voter Fraud: blame it on the GOP. They NEVER complain. They NEVER back up candidates who have been robbed. They have power they NEVER use for the benefit of the party's members. The GOP is an accessory before the fact, an accomplice during the act, and an accessory after the fact, of voter fraud.
In other words, there is a pretty high probability that Romney would be president today had the election been conducted honestly.
I refer you to the indecent haste with which The Mormon Milquetoast conceded that election with not one (1) mention of the rampant fraud in the big states; a disgrace which unfortunately illustrates my point rather well. I hope that SOB hasn't the nerve to show his pasty face in public again.
