I object to the allegation that because I live in a densely populated
state, my vote means less than someone in those wide open spaces.  (Of
course the electoral college makes that a fact, but that's another
issue).  This is like those maps of how counties voted which showed
that where no one lives, Bush won.  Gore still got a half million more
votes.  And those half million people are all American citizens just
like the Bush voters.

Of course 50,000 American citizens in Florida never had the
opportunity to vote because they were improperly removed from the
voting roles.

Had there been a fair statewide recount in Florida, rather than the
attention only to Democratic leaning counties, Gore would have won. 
Press accounts have verified that.  Having said that, had Gore run a
better campaign, he would have run.  Hell, had he avoided rolling his
eyes in the debate, he would have won.
