If Phil Mickelson shoots a 56 and Tiger Woods shoots a 59 then Mickelson is the winner because he has the lower score. In a democracy it is the other way the higher score (is supposed to) wins.
Does any other country have Minority Rule? If Al Gore gets more votes than George W. Bush then Bush is elected President. If Michigan votes by a significant margin for Democratic Representatives then the Republicans get a 9-5 advantage. If the Senate votes 55-45 to extend unemployment benefits then of course they lose.
Why does a single Senator have the right to block a Presidential appointment? We didn't elect Marco Rubio, President(and never will). Why can Rand Paul or Ted Cruz simply object to a bill coming forward and that's it the bill is dead?
None of these things are in the constitution, why do we tolerate it? Why doesn't Harry Reid do something about it? Would any other country allow such as we have here?
American exceptionalism? We are exceptional SCHMUCKS!
