Gore got more votes because we DO NOT ELECT OUR PRESIDENTS BY POPULAR VOTE.

If Dubya had needed more votes, he could easily have gotten half a million more in Texas alone, where vast numbers of GOP voters stayed home simply because their votes were not needed - he and all other GOP candidates won Texas by an overwhelming majority, and I doubt Texas was an isolated case.

You should have prefaced your comments with - "when you wish upon a star". At least that would have given warning to the fantasy world you live in.
