You're saying that the media is on Bush's side???? You're out of your mind.

He was elected once & appointed once. US media is a half assed reporting truth in news. A British paid & UK residing American did a great job of investigative reporting on the whole issue of how the election was stolen in Florida & elsewhere in the US. Recently Florida lost votes by mtiriany thousands. Voters tallied did not correspopnd even close to votes cast. BTW I believe that the bkook I read was " The Best Democracy Money Can Buy". It takes a strong stomach & open mind to read it.

Again, I have no idea what in the heck you are talking about.
In regard to Bush, even if there was controversy over the first election, there was no debate about the second, so regardless of anything, America voted for GW at LEAST once.
AND, the media is largely biased--towards liberals!! I think that is obvious to everyone. You shouldn't trust what you hear on TV, in any topic, be it politics, sickness, whatever, the media only tells you what they want you to hear. They leave things out and only are trying to make a story...

Sure, we're capable of by-passing the state-run media. They don't make it easy to find the truth, we have to look for it, in books, documentaries, internet, etc. Link TV is an excellent source for an alternative. DemocracyNow! is there as well as on radio.
G.W.B. was not elected once or twice. He was selected twice by skulduggery.

Great question. The answer is no & no. The American public believes everything they see and hear on the TV. Hardly anyone I know has escaped the trap. It is really really sad. People need to get educated about the "Beast". If you know what I mean.

If you are talking about Bush, it is the number of electoral (states you win) votes… Not the majority of the votes... This way the smaller states have a say in who is there prez. If they just took the highest number of votes, they would only need to care about the E and W coasts...

No, because the neo-cons have sucessfully convinced their base that the media lapdogs are 'liberal' even though independent studies found the exact obvious (fueled by media monopolies), and; No, he lost both Ohio and Florida in 2000 and Ohio, Florida, and at least 3 other states in 2004.

FYI, peoples of every nation are exposed to and listen to the media. Different individuals are effected differently.
You are being a hypocrit because, unless you are American, how else do you know that they are like that?

Well, I would think most people believe the media is lying to them...
