Man, I dunno..... Look at the CHOICES we have had in elections... Is there really any CHOICE at all? How many times have you voted where you actually were voting FOR someone instead of voting AGAINST the other contestant because the one you voted for wasn't quite as bad as the other?

What kind of choice is that?

As for them being elected by a majority, well it's only a majority of people not disillusioned enough quite yet to feel that they are wasting their time voting, and NOT a majority of the population. I'm sorry, but there is just no way that any REAL power would allow itself to be able to be simply voted out of office. And nor would that power allow someone who could seriously challenge the status quo reach a point where he or she COULD make a difference.
