1. My thoughts as to why
its based on how the voting was done.

Look at the other 4 great Americans - lots of good people to choose from. They split the vote of 'regular people', while the freeper block could only vote for Ronnie.

2. The whole setup of it was B.S.
And the show was complete cheese. Matt Lauer, lest we forget, used to be the entertainment reporter on HBO.

4. They had Coulter and Miller on, what did you expect
Ben Franklin is the only choice. Read "The Greatest American" by Brand, then you'll understand.

6. Just let it go,
and try to laugh. :)

Obviously, I know it's a little scary. Believe me.

But if we don't let certain things go, we'll never have the strength to gear up for the big fights.

he must be the greatest in the other America.

In my America, there were many more deserving of that title.
