At my place do a search on the term and you'll find sever articles from before you started coming.

We do not have that problem today. We can speak for ourselves.<BR/> The electoral College, the Delegate system, electronic machines, are only a few of the ways to steal the election from the American people. It was stolen the last 2 times and I fear it will be this time too.

It was installed to basically correct the vote when the citizens got it wrong. The analog used to exist in Europe preWWII but that little, ..err.. unpleasantness proved its deathknell, long after time.<BR/>Not that I'm opposed (in principle) to an unelected Upper House but in practice they've been corrupted to the point of obscenity.<BR/>The last extant, the Lords in Britain, is soon to be turned into a sycophants' sinecure but once, pre Thatcher, was a repository of non partisan debate, unaligned and imbued with noblesse oblige, like the Monarchy.<BR/>I'm sure you've read the essay (I think it was Updike but might have been Sinclair Lewis)who, whilst debating with a staunch patriot friend about, amerikan exceptionalism/Manifest Destiny/ the usual self serving crap, drove over the Canadian border and then posited the question, "so, how is this any different?"amphibioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995479651276290906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15216381.post-67287583755417083302008-02-03T17:16:00.000-08:002008-02-03T17:16:00.000-08:00Halftime and I have to run.
