Not really. Only just over half (53.6%) of Americans voted in 2012 and 56.8% in 2008. Of that roughly half of the voting age population, Obama spent $760,370,195 in 2008 and received 69,498,516 votes, spending $10.94 per vote, while McCain spent $346,666,422, got 59,948,323 votes and spent $5.78 per vote.mistermack wrote:Wrong.

Voter turnout is estimated to be between roughly 61% and 63%, which is high for recent presidential elections.
Obama won the popular vote by 52.93% to 45.65% for McCain, a difference of 7.28%.
In 2012, Obama received 65,915,796 votes, Romney 60,933,500, which comes to 51.1% for Obama and 47.2% for Romney, a difference of 3.9%.
45.65 and 47.2 percent of voters voting in the respective elections disagree, and only 57.5% of all eligible voters actually voted in the 2012 election.Obama was elected because the Republican candidates were a load of shite.
Most importantly, voting for President cannot be seen as acquiescence to absolutely anything that President or the majority Congress might do while in office, not by any stretch of the imagination.
So no, "the American people" did not vote to let radical Muslims into the United States. Obama and the Democrats are completely responsible for that because they are the ones who have refused to secure the borders and control immigration. Why? Because they want more welfare-dependent, illiterate Mexicans to become citizens so that the Democrats can control their vote by threatening their welfare benefits in order to advance Marxism and Progressivism, and for no other reason whatsoever. The influx of Islamic terrorists is merely an artifact of this entirely political decision to deliberately leave our borders unsecured, but Obama and the Democrats are fully and completely responsible for it because they controlled both the House, Senate and Oval Office and chose not to act when they could have done so, and even today they obstruct (and veto) every Republican attempt to secure the borders because it threatens their Cloward and Piven strategy of overwhelming the system with illegal aliens who are then anointed by Obama as citizens with the right to vote.
I'd have to see your evidence showing that "Muslims were flooding into the US during Bush's time." I don't believe that is actually true. In any event that's not really relevant because Obama has the hot potato at the moment and it is within his power to deploy the Army, Navy and Air Force, not to mention the National Guard to our borders if he chooses to do so. He does not, and he does not do so deliberately, for the reasons described above, which in my view makes him guilty of treason.The country gets the mis-management it deserves. That's democracy. In any case, if you check, you will find that Muslims were flooding into the US during Bush's time, just as now. In fact, it was Bush's wars that gave them the excuse.
