6. That is NOT a democratic election.
If the people don't know the candidates and what the candidates stand for, it's a sham.

Obviously, OUR GUY will be the only one anyone has heard of, so even if he garners only 15% of the vote, that'll beat the 1% or so everyone else will get by random selection.

This fake election is being held so that B* can put a big shiny bow on top of the crap pile that is Iraq. "We brought democracy to Iraq!" Nevermind that they're fake elections, that B* has killed about as many people in Iraq as the tsunami did in all of southeast asia, nevermind the maimed and dead American soldiers...
