"We", as in the majority of voting Americans, didn't elect Bush no matter what the vote count in Florida was (and even this is highly dubious). Bush lost the majority vote in 2000 but still got to be president because of how our byzantine Electoral College is run. While this did mean he got the White House, he didn't have a mandate from the people.
He won in 2004 because Kerry decided not to try very hard. Some questionable things in Ohio too but nothing as obvious as how they stole Florida four years prior.
Oh, and just in case I get hit with this snide remark every time I talk about 2000:
No, I won't "get over it".
Ever.
As a patriotic American, I will remain angry and bitter about the stolen election of 2000 until I go to my grave (and for eternity thereafter if there happens to be an afterlife after all).
