Try going by % and you will see that Bush won re-election by the smallest % since 1918 and 2nd smallest EVER. The VAST majority of President than win a 2nd term win by MUCH more than 3%.
I'm not a dem so don't turn this into a dem vs repub thing because the 2 party system is what is wrong with this country, but the fact remains that 73% of all adults the could vote in 2004 chose NOT to vote for Bush.

Correct. If you follow the arguement in the thread. You will see the need to point out that he was elected by more votes than anyone in history.
I understand what your saying, but that doesn't mean that nobody in America wanted him to be president.
The fact is that more people than in any Presidental election ever, pulled the lever for President Bush. Thats a lot of fucking people
