I hope most of us take the time to consider just how blessed we are to live in such a great country with a system that works so well. When Bush won a second term, people freaked out and threatened to leave. When Obama won his first term, people freaked out and threatened to leave. People talk about secession, uprising, etc. Quite frankly, it's ridiculous. We live in an imperfect government with a system I become more and more dissatisfied with (wonderful as it is, I think it needs a bit of a democratic update). But nevertheless, it works rather well, and we don't have bloodshed and coups and serious strife every time there's an election, which inevitably disappoints around half the country. It works, and we are blessed.
