Carl, I don't have a link, but we just elected the 107th Congress, and that happens every two years. That would put the Presidential election at #54. Quick check... 53*4 = 212 years, plus 1 for this election year, = 213 years. GW was elected 1787, which was 213 years ago. Still, 8% would hardly be considered continual to most people. For example, the Boston Red Sox have won the World Series 5% of the time, and yet if you ask someone from Boston how often they win the World Series, they will wail, "NEVER!!!!" --Ben
