John Fraud Kerry lamented that he lost to GW Bush by approximately 58,000 votes....ironically, that is the same number as the number of names of the honored dead on the Vietnam Memorial wall slandered by Kerry from the moment he bugged out of Vietnam until the day he lost the election.
The initial electoral vote margin of victory for Donald Trump over Shrillary Clinton was 4 (270 needed to win, and Trump reached 274 with his victory in Pennsylvania). Four Americans died in the 2012 Benghazi attack: Ambassador Chris Stevens, Information Officer Sean Smith, and two CIA operatives, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, both former Navy SEALs. Stevens is the first U.S. ambassador killed in an attack since Adolph Dubs was killed in 1979.
"With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans," Hillary Clinton said. "Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided that they'd go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make?" ~ said during the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Jan. 23, 2013..... I wonder if Shrillary still asks "What difference does it make NOW?" _________________ Find the perfect babysitter, petsitter, or tutor -- today! |

About that "popular" vote total......
Trump won the popular vote among all the LEGALLY REGISTERED LIVING voters and among ALL voters in the states that the candidates actually visited. Hillary won among the dead voters, the multiple-registered voters, the illegal alien voters, and the criminal voters. Terry McAlliffe, governor of Virginia, managed to legalize 60,000 felon voters....Hillary won Virginia by 60,000 votes.
But the REAL story is, Hillary won the popular vote because of the "automatic" states like California and New York and a few other solid blue states, and the lopsided margin in these states was enough to skew the final popular vote total. She didn't even have to visit those states to win. She LOST in most of the BLUE (normally Democrat) states that she actually visited. She got creamed in the Red (normally Republican) states. She received 6 MILLION fewer votes than Obama did previously. No, Hillary didn't really win the legitimate "popular" vote, she just ended up with the most votes, legal and otherwise, due to the concentration of population in a handful of states that have become hard-core Leftists. This is EXACTLY why the founders were very wise to create the Electoral College and to establish the vote the way they did so that ALL STATES would have a voice in electing the President and that "tyranny by the mob" or control by a handful of high population centers would not be allowed. Candidates have to win the most ELECTORS, regardless of how lopsided the total vote count may be within a few high population states. Whether a candidate wins by a few votes or wins every vote in a particular state, that candidate's number of electoral votes is the same (except for those states that now apportion electors). The point is, the popular vote is only significant within each state, so large population states cannot swamp small population states and determine the outcome through sheer population. _________________ Find the perfect babysitter, petsitter, or tutor -- today! |
