Mindmeld,

> History says that if a Democrat is elected over an incumbent Republican, the stock market does not perform as well the following years relative to how it would have performed had the incumbent Republican been elected. That's just statistics.

No, that's not statistics, that's misinformation. There is no way to prove how a market "would have performed" had another candidate been elected. But what we do know for sure is that the stock market has done markedly better under Democratic presidents than under Republican ones.
