[DMCForum] Re: Gasoline Prices and the election

["Flavia" <frvianna@xxxxxxxxx>]

Then do us all a favor leave! LOL I'm kidding, I'm sociable enough to 
be able to live among different people, even those who insult others. 
In fact you make me laugh, so hang around.
Yes, we are the future and intellectual future of the world. And what 
is the problem with college students? Haven't you ever been one 
yourself? Personal attacks again and prejudice against my age group. 
My dictionary is wrong? Prove it! Don't you always say that we have 
to back up what we say?
Ok, I tried another source, Longman dictionary for Republic:
a nation, usually governed by elected representative....
Republican: a person who disapproves of kings and queens, and 
believes in government by elected representatives only

I could go on and on with different dictionaries, I don't think I'll 
find one saying that the one who has less vote wins. BTW, I DON'T 
drink, I don't live on campus, I have a 4.0 GPA and I work 7 days a 
week, so please watch what you say before you acusing people of being 
stupid and having bad habits. We are having an adult and intelligent 
discussion. I have a lot of fun looking for sources to back up what I 
say, I never say someone has more mouths than brains. Instead, I read 
dictionaries. 
Last, but not least, I know how the electoral college works, and I 
don't see anything "unfair" such as you have less votes and you still 
win, the math makes sense and I hope they make good use of it in the 
next few days.
