Yes, but it is by popular vote.\n\nIn 2000 Bush was elected by the Electoral College:  a big mistake but it was the law.\n\nGore actually won the election with the popular vote.\n\nThe election was rigged by Daddy Bush

Yes, unfortunatly.  If you want to think that, it's okay.  Almost everyone these days hates Bush.  But in the 2004 election, they picked him.

Democratic nepotism?  Have you not seen the statistics on the people Bush appointed?  The largest percentage of people that have no prior qualifications in the field were appointed by Bush because he knew them in Texas or were relatives of others.\n\nblatant plagarism follows:\n\nVice President Dick Cheney's son-in-law, Philip Perry, has been named deputy attorney general. Secretary of State Colin Powell's son, Michael Powell, is the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission. Powell was appointed to the FCC by President Clinton in 1997 and elevated to chairman earlier this year. Bush also re-appointed him to another term on the commission, until 2007.\n\nBudget Director Mitchell Daniels' sister, Deborah, has been appointed assistant attorney general. Deputy White House press secretary Scott McClellan's brother is on the president's Council of Economic Advisers.\n\nThe brother of White House political director Ken Mehlman -- Bruce -- is an assistant secretary of commerce.\n\nIn the broader Republican family, relatives of Chief Justice William Rehnquist and Justice Antonin Scalia also have been picked for plum posts in the Bush administration. Janet Rehnquist is the inspector general of the Department of Health and Human Services, and Eugene Scalia is solicitor general at the Labor Department. He was one of Bush's attorneys when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the then-Republican presidential candidate in the Florida election case.

I don't understand how you think. You try to conect Bush with the supreme court and go on and on about bush subjugating humanity to his will. You ignore that the supreme court has MAKING laws for decades, and thats not what the founders intended it to be. This law making aspect has been used for YEARS by democracts to further their own agenda. Youre so blindly consumed with an irrational fear of Bush that you can't see the bigger picture.\n\nHere in CA we have popular votes, we have a clear majority vote, the state supreme court declares them unconstitutional. This is an overwhelmingly liberal state, with an overwhelmingly liberal court system. The democrats here have the same gripe as you when it comes to Alito but when it comes to the CA sumpreme court over throwing their vote all you hear is silence because its their own party screwing them.\n\nTo summ it up don't be so narrow in your thinking, see the forrest not just republican trees.\n\nRegards,\n\nRascal\n\nPS. you seem familiar. Didn't you work for Bill Clinton?\n\nPPS. Can I have your vote for best answer please? :)

President Bush has had more to deal with than most other Presidents. I think he has made mistakes but it has been a tough 6 years. I don't think any politician would have done well in this Presidency. I don't think any politician can run our country.I think the people who are capable of leading this country aren't even in politics. They are too smart to even want to be involved with the spectacle that we call a government.

Kerry, again. Fortunately, that won't happen. Unless, the supreme court has a sudden attack of conscience and reverses it's ruling to state the GWB didn't win the first two, and then I suppose he could run again... I'm just very tired of Bush using my religion to justify his evil actions. God did not tell him to invade Iraq, while lying America about why. God doesn't do that.

Bush did not run in this Election. It was not a Presidential election.  He cannot run in the next Presidential, because he is limited to 2 terms in office, and he is in his 2nd term now.

For clarification, Bush was not elected, he was selected, and no I don't think he will be held accountable.  I do think, however, he will be labeled the worst president in recent history.  Bush is not an intelligent person, and everyone knows that.  He was just lucky there were conservatives on the Supreme Court to select him as president back in 2000.

It will be two more years before the Presidential Election.  John McKane, maybe.  Two years is a long time.  Bush will have served his time.  We will have to find someone to take his place.

Absolutely.  It has nothing to do with anything Clinton did or didn't do.  Bush is by far the worst leader in the history of Earth.

NO and I don't want him to!\nIf Pres. Bush did something like that, these Republicans would find a way to blame Pres. Clinton!

Looking at the makeup of the Supreme Court, I think it was to ensure that the Chief Justice would be a Republican appointee for a long time.  All of the other are either Democratic appointees (Breyer, Ginsburg), rather liberal (Souter, Kennedy, Stevens) or would have difficulty getting approved by the Senate as Chief (Thomas).  That leaves Scalia, but he was almost 70 at the time, and likely could not be counted on to stay on the court for more than 5-10 years.  Roberts, on the other hand, was a spry 50 years old and thus will likely lead the court for at least 20 years.

President Bush was born on July 6, 1946. That would make him 59 this year of 2005.\n\nP.S. Don't mess with Texas.

Probably not (and no, that was not a stab at President Bush himself).  Many American's probably couldn't even name the president 30 years ago, let alone any individual act that he did -- and contrary to popular belief the world was just as harrowing back then as it was now.  So unless something truly dramatic happens (mankind reaches Mars during his term, for example), he'll just go down as just another American President.  And if you think 9/11 alone was significant enough to mark his place in history, how many of your can name the president during Pearl Harbor, an equally shocking event? (You'd be surprised how many people couldn't).
