2008 Election Facts

Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, in St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning last November's Presidential election:

Number of States won by: Obama: 19 McCain: 29

Square miles of land won by: Obama: 580,000 McCain: 2,427,000

Population of counties won by: Obama: 127 million  McCain: 143 million

Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:   Obama: 13..2 McCain: 2.1

Professor Olson adds:

"In aggregate, the map of the territory McCain won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.

Obama territory, mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegal's and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.
