"..how it happened.."

.. I would say pure ignorance, ProEtContra. We have an education system in ruin, a media that lies, and have many who never vote. That is, thankfully changing. The Internet has peeled away the lies of media. People are getting informed, and people are angry.

That was one reason Gore did not win. But, sadly we have a long way to go before we return to the moral and honorable stature this nation once enjoyed. I believe we are on-track to getting there, as the socialists who have ruled here are losing respect and political power. If socialism and the idea of world-government can be cleansed from American goals by voters here, that dream of return to what once made this nation great may well be accomplished - but it will take time.

My hope is that Serbia will rise again too. Nations are great for one reason only, a firm grip on what makes mankind moral and civilized. When that morality dies - nations die.

BTW - how your post got deleted. Someone complained, and a moderator probably did not look close enough - he just deleted on the strength of the complaint. That happens now and then, but don't let it stop you from posting here.
