Ho Ho Ho yea get a president elected by the clueless idiots and confused. Yes the US election laws are not perfect and lead to exactly what happened in the present election.

There is need to change as they were designed by greedy landlords who were thinking that grabing land and enslaving others is their birthright.

What a Country ....... and since wen do you take the freedom to insult me with that guy that needed to be thrown out of office and possible go to jail?? ....... and....... yes he stayed in office because the stock market, not because any thing else.

The fact that his wife was elected is sad enought now I do not need and President with limited intellectual capabilities........... not to mention other bad things that happen in Florida and possible other states. McCain should had been the Republican choice and I would voted for him and not sit with my hands in my pockets.

....... and by the way those republicans that apeared on European and CNN networks are all a bunch of dishonest and misleading people who will twist any law to get their man in power. Let the people speak out and let new election in Palm Beach county go ahead and let us go about our business. It is simple if both parties want it.

As to Palm Beach

The large number of older people in Palm Beach County also likely played a
role, he added, with many elderly voters "not as sharp as they used to be."

Four years ago, 14,872 Palm Beach County ballots were thrown out either
because they lacked a vote for a presidential candidate or because they had
two votes for president.

On Tuesday, about 30,000 faulty ballots halted the selection of the nation's
43rd president and brought heavily Democratic Palm Beach County to the
world's attention.

"There are always these under- and over- votes. It just happens," said Bruce
Rogow, a law professor at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale.
Rogow is representing Theresa LePore, the Palm Beach County election
supervisor, a Democrat, who designed the ballot that some voters say was
so confusing it may have cost Vice President Al Gore the election.

"Maybe some people just pass on it; maybe they don't like any of the
candidates," Rogow suggested.
