As I said, I don’t live in America. And I really don’t know much about American politics or how it quite works,
I Will be studying American Studies At college (With a year at an American or Canadian College, JOY!), Soon enough though, (after spending a gap year in america/canada natch)
And maybe then I will earn more about such subjects.
Though I want to specialise In Canadian Studies If they’ll let me  p[/QUOTE] Thats pretty cool. Enjoy the chance to focus on education, its a bit harder when you try to go back and get the formal studies out of the way at a later age [img]smile.gif[/img] .
B-Mann Is right about Florida, and you will also find that there is very little said publicly about the fact that after all was said and done, and when all the votes were actually checked later, Gore, didn't even come close in florida. He did have to popular vote, but Bush was not the first person elected by the electoral college. John Quincy Adams, beat Andrew Jackson due to the electoral college process, Jackson won the following presidential election.
