Will you people PLEASE read the Constitution?
Then perhaps, some US history would be in order.
I swear, some folks never-ending crybabying, almost four years after
the fact, is nearly as amusing as their shocking ignorance of US
history which they so proudly display for all to see, here on
rec.boat.
1876 Rutherford B Hayes 185 Elec. vote - 4,033,768 pop. vote.
Samuel Tilden 184 Elec. vote - 4,285,992 pop. vote.
1888 Benjamin Harrison 233 Elec. vote - 5,440,216 pop. vote.
Grover Cleveland 168 Elec. vote - 5,538,233 pop. vote.
Some other rather famous "minority presidents" (who were elected with
less than 50% of the popular vote) were Abraham Lincoln (1860),
Woodrow Wilson (1912 & 1916), Harry Trumam (1948), John F. Kennedy
(1960), Richard Nixon (1968) and, lo and behold, their "hero" William
Jefferson Clinton Bythe (1992).
Suck on that one, all of you never-ending crybabies.
