   But then as PV is never tired of telling us the USA is a Republic   
   not a democracy. Earl. Would you say that Churchill was   
   democratically elected to power in the UK in 1951?   
   He received nearly half a million votes less than Atlee did.   
   Indeed Churchill was never chosen by the majority of the   
   British. Another useless statistic coming up. If   
   women had never been allowed to vote in the UK, the   
   Labour Party would have won every election since   
   1945.
