There is no need to hurry into a decision of the presidency. We have a man in this country named Bill Clinton, and until January he has the job of president. Americans are very fortunate in the fact that we have a long history of smooth transitions between political parties and offices. Eventually, the elections of 2000 will have the same result. In many countries, civil wars break out every time a new party attempts to take power or one refuses to step down from power.
Democracy is all about the common man controlling who comes to power.
It is a rare day when it is so evident how much a single event will impact the future. This event, the 2000 election, will undoubtedly be one of the most historic events in the political history of America. It will stand next to the Declaration of Independence, the Civil War and the Cold War in history books. The events of this election will be studied, analyzed, criticized and praised. In the end, the election of either George W. Bush or Al Gore, will be held as an example of democracy.
