Bush. > > Well, FWIW, the choice of the _country_ is Al Gore by some 150,000 votes. Why is it that people think that Florida is the whole country? Sure Bush is ahead by under 300 votes in Florida, but when you look at the whole country, Gore is ahead by thousands of votes. Even Florida's 300 votes don't make a dent in Gore's victory in the popular vote. Doesn't really matter which one of those crooks gets it, as Republicans and Democrats always raise our taxes and pass more laws taking away more of our freedoms. Why do people keep wasting their votes on these two parties when they will be elected even if you don't vote for them?! At least send a message by voting for one of the OTHER 46 political parties that we have. There has got to be ONE out of 46 that has a platform that is to your liking.
