And, oh, by the way, have you heard that we do not elect presidents by majority vote?

what "system" do you think I was referring to when I stated appointed "by the system, of course"... which must now include, besides the electoral college, the supreme court as well...

He was elected by a majority of electoral votes.

since I disagree with the very existence of such a body in this day and age I choose to use the word "appointed"..."elected" sounds TOO democratic...it might give some the wrong idea about our...democracy...
