Hey, is your only variable for electing US Presidents whether or not they know the Canadian Prime Minister? Have you considered the [admittedly remote] possibility that GWB knows all the names of the Canadian government except for the Prime Minister (due to some mental block, I dunno), while Gore knows only the Prime Minister's name but is completely ignorant of every other governing member in Canada?

I mean, come on ... this is like the sixth time today that you mentioned this Prime Minister thing! It's like an AMD freak shouting over and over "Intel warned/recalled/preannounced and because of it they will always warn/recall/preannounce and will die!!!". Is it true? Well, the first part is, but the conclusion fails to take in ten billion variables and instead focuses on just the one (okay, the three) that favours the speaker.

PS: I'm not anti-Gore. In fact, due to anti-nepotistic (just checked ... wow, that's really a real word!!) tendencies, I'm slightly less against Gore than I am [against] GWB. Just consider me a neutral who thinks that the electoral democracy has to be beefed up before we can stand a decent chance of electing truly qualified servants.
