Reply #214: Just because you don't like the RESULT of an election doesn't mean we don't have democracy.

In fact, in ANY democracy, there are going to be people like you who don't like election results. If everyone unanimously liked the election results, that would be a problem -- not a good thing.

You seem to be forgetting the concept of a primary election. Who decided the nominee of the Democratic party? The Democratic party voters. There was indeed a candidate running in the Democratic primary who was probably closer to your views than Obama. Now, he didn't get more than a percent of the vote or so, but that doesn't mean we don't have a democracy. It just means that some people's preferred candidates lost.
