I believe that George Bush won the election through the vote of the people and the way our republic is set up. All we did was follow the law in the Department of State.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
George W. Bush broke a mold four years ago: Even though he lost the popular vote, he governed as if he had won by acclamation.
I did vote Obama. But I've never believed in the authenticity of the two-party system.
The fact is that we as a party at the Republican National Committee registered 3.4 million new voters in the past two years and brought them into the political process. The president won by 3.5 million votes.
If you look back through history in the United States, there have been very few landslide elections. Half the country always voted for someone else.
Reagan won because he was real. He believed in America. He told people he was gonna make it great again coming out of a disastrous four years of Jimmy Carter and Watergate before that.
I fully appreciate the fact that George W. Bush won 49% of my district.
I don't think Bush was legitimately elected President.
How did we win the election in the year 2000? We talked about a humble foreign policy: No nation-building; don't police the world. That's conservative, it's Republican, it's pro-American - it follows the founding fathers. And, besides, it follows the Constitution.
Bush wasn't elected, he was selected - selected by five judges up in Washington who voted along party lines.
I voted for Obama and I was delighted that he's been elected.
