This was forwarded to me and I thought it was interesting.

Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the most recent Presidential election:
Population of counties won by: Gore=127 million Bush=143 million
Square miles of land won by: Gore=580,000 Bush=22,427,000
States Won By: Gore=19 Bush=29
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Gore=13.2 Bush=2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by the tax-paying citizens of this great country. Gore's territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off government welfare..."
If enough people read this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe good changes will evolve.
