so YOU decided that that George Bush should be president even though Al Gore had more votes??you decided to bomb afghanistan??YOU decided to put the "parental advisory" on explicit cd's ??..........i think not...the people dont decide a shit... not even a rightfull president
i wish Gore won..Maybe alot of the bullshit would stop.I actully thought Clinton did a pretty good job..We need a President like Roosevelt.SO anybody that can help get in there at 2004. Bush ran this country into a big ass ditch.

Bush ran this country into a big ass ditch.and everyon in the media is doing polls like if it was gore and bush again who would you vote fore....and gore is looking GOOD in those polls.....also liberman is what bogged down gore last time cuz liberals thought liberman was too conservative so some of their votes went to nader i think....and if nader doesn't run it should be a better race, plus 2000 elections still had the sour taste of the clinton scandol around so that hurt gore too......so yeh if Gore accepts his nomination....Gore might be pres

HEEEEELLLL NO! it's all a protection devise for parents , and that's what GOV is suppose to be .....protection for its citizensi rest my casethe people rule my country , not a dictator(s)
1. the fact still remains... the president with most votes didnt became president...2. since the truthfully president didnt get his spot, technically, bush's acts does NOT represent his people.3. rock musicians are allowed to talk bullsihit without any parental advisory.... i even remember that song "im your bitch im your lover" or something like that... it was shown on mtv and shit with no problem... so explain for me how that can be fair
