Amen, bro.Just last night, because she asked, I tried explaining the year 2000 presidential elections to my 11-yr old daughter, and summarized by saying the same thing. Florida, Jeb Bush, Kathleen what's-her-name, the Atty General of Florida, the ridiculous ballots (remember "chads"?), the miscounts, the Supreme Court refusing to intervene. How do you tell a child that democracy is 'what America's all about,' like they do in her social studies class, when there is so little to be found?
