Your official, public, personal definition of "anti-american", what was that??

In a proportional representations systems votes have a different meaning than in single-seat, winner-takes-all, FPTP (Farts Past the Post) elections.

Especially in multi-memember-districts
(party-list systems are kind of boring)

What matters, is that, just as the goal of the 1800s was to end colonialism (and slavery, for those who were late) the 1900s was to (ocne again, to end colonials for those who were late) and to introduce regular voting (and civil) rights, the 2000s are the time for those who very late in both earlier centuries, to introduce both

- proportional representation
- multi-party systems
- and especially, center-based-consensus-systems.

However, those too old two-party-citizens need not to worry, they are supposed to die peacefully, leaving those more difficult issues to new and brighter generations. (scandinavian ancient IQ-studies show that every two-party generation gets an additional bonus of 20 points when going multi-party)

Well, except if they think they have some responsibility and future for their grand-children, not just to make them laugh, or cry, on that Pavlovian Fart.

Btw, you can find those IQ-statistics in the back of that "Bell Curve" book, bless the good man, now a tru member of Cato (well, he might have been pushed out to the level of AEI??)

Is it really true that mono-lingual individuals have problems with even simple constructions of sentences??

Kind of what is "is"?? (fairly simple in more well defined languages, was it, is it or will it be, plus the definition of the time of when it was said))

Not to forget what is kind of is, kind is of is and kind, is again, and is off, what??

Btw, that english language, was it called an idiotic or idiomatic language, or just some language which under the right two-party conditions produces generations and generations of know-nothing scholars and especially citizens, not to forget the dark masses under the blinding light of that torch of the statue??

Bless the immigrants, alien, illegal or educated, as many and then Bill usually says.
(is it true it only takes three generations to melt into the darkness of centuries long passed, Jefferson, little girls and boys, Mrs Roosevelt and property taxes to fund schools, and no condoms within 10 miles, just some strip joints??)

Try to grab a handful of Ritalin, stuff it, and try to come up with something
