What is your point? The president has NEVER in our history been elected by popular vote. He won the electoral vote per the process outlined by our Constitution.

Pres. Bush got more popular votes than Bill Clinton did in '92, so I guess Clinton was illegitmate too.

The point is simple to me - don't get cocky about the election. Bush didn't win the popular vote. Personally I believe the last couple weeks of negative ads by Gore and the NAACP (?) scared the foolish undecided into voting for Gore. I Think W will win but it would be nice to have the popular vote, which Clinton never got.

The point, if you bother reading the posts, is that the vast majority of Americans cannot be said to be conservative based on the 2000 vote.
