Because people voted for him. You should read up on the term Democracy.

Copied:
In a democracy, voting commonly implies election, i.e. a way for an electorate to select among candidates for office. In politics voting is the method by which the electorate of a democracy appoints representatives in its government.

A vote, or a ballot, is an individual's act of voting, by which he or she express support or preference for a certain motion (e.g. a proposed resolution), a certain candidate, or a certain selection of candidates. A secret ballot, the standard way to protect voters' political privacy, generally takes place at a polling station. (Compare postal ballot). The act of voting in most countries is voluntary, however some countries, such as Australia, Belgium and Brazil, have compulsory voting systems.

Nevertheless, a country's having an election featuring the populace casting votes does not necessarily mean the country is democratic. Many authoritarian governments have "elections" but the candidates are pre-chosen and approved by elites, there is no competition, voter qualifications are restrictive, and voting is often a sham.

Some people think that whenever votes are recorded in a medium which is invisible to humans, electors lose any possibility to verify how their votes are collected and tallied up to produce the final result, thus they need to have an absolute faith in the accuracy, honesty and security of the whole electoral apparatus. This is said to be particularly true for electronic elections because, for people who didn’t program them, computers act just like black boxes and their operations can truly be verified only by knowing the input and comparing the expected output with the actual output [1], but under a secret ballot system, there is no known input, nor is there any expected output with which to compare electoral results [2].

The only reason this deadbeat ever became our president was because his father was a previous president. He doesn't even think for himself. All of his speeches, he got help from his father. He's making the gas prices sky high, and we're in Iraq for no reason. He's a menace. He's making this entire nation suffering to pay soaring gas prices for no apparent reason

Because the majority of Americans are idiots. The last 6 years should be proof of that. That includes this "war on terror in Iraq." Riiiiiiiiiiiight. Just say it: "I wanted to finish my daddy's war for him so he would be proud of me." Sure, some say he was "better" than Kerry. Personally, I went for the lesser of two evils.

I hear he might get impeached.

As for the why, there is a bunch of stuff Bush and other republicans did to make it so he'd get re-elected, which are illegal. He's trying to end our right to vote whatever we want!
