Please forgive me for getting off topic and thanks to all for your constructive responses.

No she didn't!!! we do not elect Presidents by POPULAR VOTE of the nation. But by POPULAR VOTE of the States. Each of which holds a Popular election vote
Your suggesting the football team with the most yardage should always win.
Play by the rules or lose. Clinton knew all the rules. As for Putin why would you care what he thinks our elections should be?
Now, enough politics. They frown on that here.
BTW, the USA is not a Democracy. It is a democratic Republic.
