The year 2000 Presidential elections in the US was certainly the most dramatic one. No one would have believed that Republicans would return after a successful stint of Bill Clinton. An election marred by deceit and forgery ended in a courtroom. The uncounted Florida votes propelled Junior Bush to the White House leaving a stunned world witness the abortion of democratic process in a country that champions its cause. The election also saw Fox network, which acts as a mouthpiece for the Republicans, outsmart NBC & CBS who were forced to prematurely announce the election of Bush as the President. Such was his impact that the ‘what ifs’ of that elections is still debated.
