Just answer to a simple question: who won the latest presidential elections, taking into account that Clinton has got more

So what "democracy" are you talking about, guys? It's a peasant aka proxy voting system which has came from XVIII century - from the times when most of the US men were illiterate farmers, women and colored people had no right of vote at all... even indirectly.
A democracy my ass
