Because he was sooooooo much better than any of his opponents!! Still is and whoever said Kerry is the president in your head, where is your head at Kerry was never elected. As for the election being rigged stop your crying you guys lost fair and square. I did not vote for Clinton but he won and as an American citizen I honored our voting system. Honor the office if you cannot honor anything else.

Because he deserved to be elected. He is a good president. If you dont like him them move to a different country. He is a lot better than that Kerry guy. He pretty much cried like a baby on tv when he lost.

"we" didn't. The Sec. of State/Florida certified the vote count in favor of Bush prematurely. Weeks later, an actual accurate count was trash canned by the voting officials.

I didn't and we didn't - it was rigged.
And the next time some swaggering Texan comes along talking about Jesus and invoking patriotism - Texas style, I might add - with his action movie style script of "Bring it on" I hope the American people get a heads up and really think about the ballots that they are marking.

NOBODY DID THE FIRST TIME!!!! Don't you remember? Least amount of votes ever for a sitting president, lowest poll ratings of any president since the 60s. Next time, everyone should vote, or shut-up

He was never elected, he was appointed to the first term and the second election was rigged, so the question is why was their no investigations into election fraud.

Good question. I didn't vote for him. Maybe people saw him as the lesser of 2 evils, or thought that he needed to finish what he started in Iraq.

Because his opponents (Gore and Kerry) did not earn the trust of enough of the American populace to get enough votes to drive the Electoral College in their favor.

I'll admit I thought he was the 'lesser of two evils', plus he had to finish a war he started (which I think was his only reason for starting it). I truely know it was the wrong decision now. LOL

The majority of the country is now conservative in outlook, and his platform converged with that.
Also, his challenger was a weak candidate.
