Yes a legally elected candidate who commited perjury. This time there is less apathy because with the market tanking (LOL CNN said b/c of HWP lower earnings - spin of the day), people are being personally touched. People are now saying, 'oh let's just get it done', 'I don't care who finally gets into office'. This is what happened with the Roman empire. The republic crumbled because the people became apathetic. They WANTED an emperor (big mistake there). Later due to apathy the Emperor took upon himself more authority and more authority (read here - democratic platform = more authority to goverment). Fianlly the greatest empire up til it's time crumbled from WITHIN. At it's root was a lack of absolutes (read here - unbridled tolerance). How sad....see the parallels?
