Bush=50,456,002
Gore=50,999,897
Difference=543895
Nader= 2,882,955

I stand corrected. I don't remember when the last time I checked that site, but Gore had well over a million more votes than Bush. If memory serves me correctly, it was within a hundred thousand of being 1.5 million more.

I remained alarmed by the fact that Gore got more votes than Bush. And if you add the total votes of the other conservative candidates, the total is less than half what Nader polled.

Would you like for me to add your name to the ping list?

I think you are recalling Gore's vote margin over Dubya in CA, alone.

In CA, govenment(s) are simply way, way too taxing!!! We still pay sales taxes on gasoline taxes and Governor Reagan never did one thing about that!!!

I know I'll get flamed for saying this, but I've been thinking it for over a year now, and was pleased to hear Rush say it last week, too... I'm generally pleased with Dubya's foreign policies, but both in foreign affairs and domestically he's imitating Nixon, not Reagan!!!

Nixon dang near ruined us domestically. We're still suffering from gargantuan social programs including affirmative action for fish and plants, along with welfare for wildlife, thanks to "Tricky Dick!" It's enough to gag a maggot!!! (remember wage and price controls?) (grimace)

I would take issue with your assertion that the voters are a fourth branch of government ... we the people are the soveriegns of this Republic; the bastards in the three branches work for US. We are abdicating our sovereignty though, by not voting out the scoundrels and voting in honest elected representatives.
