    @ Lotsa Feet

    [T]rue believers like you who accept no criticism and brook no opposition are exactly why our Founding Fathers did their very best to create a complicated government structure which would hopefully forever bar dangerous nut cases such as yourselves from ever winning power.

    Oh, yes. They specified that election by popular majority would be a hallmark of the system. That keeps far-out fringe moonbats like us from co-opting the system and putting in our own favourite Hitlers into the Oval Office. Oh, wait....

    Cheers,
