More than half of the country thought Gore should be president. Is that meant to imply that you believe that over half of the country voted for Gore? Or was that a weasel statement leaving you room to back out when challenged? Do you lie with conscious intent like Chinu or through vacuous stupidity as demonstrated by AS?? The population of the US as of April 1, 2000 was 281,421,906. ask.census.gov Al Gore received 50,999,897 votes in the last election, or 48.38% of the total votes cast. en.wikipedia.org So, contrary to your erroneous implication (ie: lie), not only did Gore not receive over half the country's endorsement, less than 20% in fact, he received less than half of the votes that were actually cast.
