, 01:51, August 10, 2007→Plurality of popular vote: correction: note to Ferret
::: Yes, I do think that some facts are more significant than others. If you think it should be different, then please explain. I think that more people are interested in majorities than pluralities. [[User:RSchlafly|RSchlafly]] 11:17, 9 August 2007 (EDT)

::::Maestro, the point is, much is made of the fact that 500,000 more votes were cast ''against'' Bush than ''for'' Bush; changes to the United States Constitution were proposed, by no less than Hillary Clinton herself, being only one such advocate. In point of fact, William Jefferson Clinton had 16,000,000 ''more'' votes cast against him than for him him in 1992. You yourself added the totally false and errant disinformation that William Jefferson Clinton was elected in 1996 with an "absolute majority" [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=United_States_presidential_election%2C_1996&diff=261844&oldid=259713].

::::Let's anaylze the '''facts''': for every one vote that voted ''against'' GW Bush in 2000 than for him, William Jefferson Clinton (and by virtue of his election, his wife became First Lady), had 30 votes more cast ''against'' him than for him. This is a ratio of 30:1.
