How is that counted? Do you have the hard numbers?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election,_2004
They do. 122+ million total cast ballots.
We had 300 million total population in the last census. Take away all those not eligible and I just don't see that 17% no way, no how
I do see 40+% with every person counted, including non eligible ones.

That is a beautiful looking square. The architecture is really something else. I just wouldn't want to deal with the cold, especially after being in southern Arizona for over a decade.

...and what problems lie beneath? I'm going to start a steam vent thread on home woes just for the fun of it and we'll really get to the bottom of this. Looks can be deceiving.
Like my friend used to say when we were kids: 'She's a butter face'. 'Everything's good but her face'.

I still like the buildings, my friend. Sure, Russia has its problems, just like everywhere else. Plus, where else can you buy a ride in a fighter jet for $10K?
Reminds me of when my dad made a comment about a girl being a real double-bagger. Hard to imagine my shock unless you'd lived for 15 years in a remarkably repressed household prior to that statement. Hilarious, indeed, but took me by suprise.

I've been to Russia several times as my wife is Russian and can say that it's a great place to visit. Moscow and Ekaterinburg weren't anything special, although Moscow has the best subway system I've seen. St. Petersburg was something else really and I'd love to go back. There's a lot of money to be made in Russia right now for those who are bold.

http://genxfinance.com/2007/11/26/a-visual-history-of-the-stock-market-from-1996-2007/Can you give us some number? Say when buddy Bill took office, when the King took office and where it is today?
How about that unemployment rate? Highest since Ronni was in office in 1986
And, when the King backed off regulating and monitoring business, what do you expect but greed?

Oh, there was a big outcry here locally about my state only having about 14% voter turnout. There was also a lot of discussion about there only being about 17% nationally. So, that is how I understood it. Even at 40%, that is still pathetic in my book. Good Lord, people have died just to see that we had a right to vote. Blood has been shed, tears have fallen, and families destroyed yet only 40% vote.How is that counted? Do you have the hard numbers?

I mean WTF is wrong here? Personally, I guess it is just too much trouble to get registered and Lord forbid them to get off their lazy a$$e$ and vote on election day. Must be too much trouble. Oh well, my point is that we, as Americans, can easily do much better and the time is NOW.Cheers,

Perhaps people feel it makes no difference in their lives these days. I for one always vote, but I also believe the right to vote shouldn't be granted at birth.

I think voting rights should be based under certain criteria, such as how they where conceived.

About 17% of the nation's population voted for George Bush.
Voter turnout was almost 61% of registered voters.
About 40% of the nation's population voted.

This is not how I remember it, but I admit I could be wrong. However, either way it still is pathetic even at 61%. At the very least, it should be no lower than 85% or so. Of course, this is MY point of view as others may feel differently. Personally, I think of the sacrifices people have made just to ensure I have a right to vote. It is NOT only a priviledge, but my duty to do so.

Well, you are
Over 62 million people voted for George Bush in 2004. The US population at that time was about 300 million. Do the math

Bush got about 62 million. That would be over 20% of the overall population.

Thanks.
Let's see. It was around $5300+/- in 1996, climbed to $11700 in 2000, roughly 100% change, let alone what it was in Jan 1993 when brother Bill took over.
It was about $11000 in Jan 01 when king George took over, climbed to around $14k, about a 30% climb, and is back to about $12200. Yep, it did well in those almost 8 years, I see.
