It still needed a majority of Americans to think the same way to accomplish this.
Actually it didn't happen that way in the first election, seeing as how Bush won that first election without getting the popular vote. You see, we're not exactly a true democracy. We have an Electoral College system which grants every state a number of votes in proportion to their population, making it possible to win by having a distribution of voters, but not a majority of voters.
Also taking into account the low voter turnout that the States have, it could be that only a minority of Americans supported him, but it's their own damn fault for not voting.
"In the beginning, we were all fish. Okay? Swimming around in the water.
And then one day a couple of fish had a retard baby, and the retard baby was different, so it got to live.
So retard fish goes on to make more retard babies, and then one day, a retard baby fish crawled out of the ocean with its mutant fish hands, and it had butt sex with a squirrel or something and made this retard frog-sqirrel, and then *that* had a retard baby which was a monkey-fish-frog.
And then this monkey-fish-frog had butt sex with that monkey, and that monkey had a mutant retard baby that screwed another monkey, and that made YOU!
So there you go! You're the retarded offspring of 5 monkeys having butt sex with a fish-squirrel! Congratulations!"
In the US the total Dicks drive ANY motorized vehicle while chatting away on their cellphone. As Maddox put it:
It's not only discourteous to the people riding with you but also to the people on the road because you're saying, "I'm not only jeopardizing my life, but yours and your family's too, so I can continue to have small talk while I drive home."
Yes, but I don't think it's sophisticated enough to accurately identify friends, civilians, and foes.
We're not really at the age where you can trust a computer to determine who lives and who dies.
Of course they should do something, but what can they really do? Nobody but the Chinese government is allowed to own firearms, so armed revolt would be a difficult task... though I'm sure 1 billion people armed with pitchforks and torches would make it easier.
that most of law enforcement is in support of the 2nd amendment (or at least we assume). I would expect a good portion of them to refuse to carry out such an action.

Go here and watch Episode 11 of Season 5 of South Park.
Only then will you understand.
Mac OS X machines have had bigger price tags for YEARS!!

I hope you're not implying that all good cigars can only come from Cuba.

But what ARE electrolytes? Do you even know?!
Apparently so.
And if carbon credits aren't your thing, you can always purchase carbon debits instead!

How soon will we see these being mounted on the heads of ill-tempered seabass?

No, as opposed to the U.S. where pissing off 80+ million gun owners is a very bad idea. (Britain learned this the hard way.)
Or guns, like all school shootings.

Mandatory gun laws have also been used in Kennesaw, GA. Crime plummeted after almost everyone was required to keep a gun in their home.
