Incorrect. At the time of the Bush/Gore election I was not old enough to vote, I had no say in the matter. And like I said, maybe I don't agree with everything but I'm quite happy where I am. Anyone else is more then welcome to leave. And if you all really want to start pointing fingers, then the whole blame for the turmoil in the middle east can be traced back to the stupidity of the British/French at the end of WWI.
Fine be happy with it but I strongly disagree. Government is there to serve the people, not to do exactly the opposite of their will. You should not willingly hand over power to people who have an entirley different agenda to your own and simply say "I'm happy where I am, don't like it, leave." Hell I'm happy were I am too, but I would be happier if many of our national problems were fixed, simply kicking back and saying "good enough for me" will never change things for the better.

And about the "we were going into Iraq anyway" I have to say that every single candidate, from Bush to Gore to Clinton to McCain to Obama is preselected by people in power, things are not controlled by the white house or congress my friend. Democrat or Republican the people in charge get what they want...always.
