Given how much the US messes about with itself and the rest of the world when the Government is supposed to have been elected fairly, I shudder when I think of the impact on the world when the elections have been unfair and rigged.

I am appalled at how candidates from the same party - e.g. Hillary and Sanders, Hillary and Obama, Trump and who-ever - first criticise each other a lot, raking muck, raising FUD, casting aspersions, indulge in a lot of rabble-rousing - just to win some popularity contest. If the candidates stoop so low for their own party, then how much lower they must stoop to "defeat" the candidates of the opposing parties.

The world has been seeing regular evidence of how easy it is to tamper with the voting machines, with the votes, and what-not. Does this call for a special situation where the elections are held again but with such concerns addressed?

Otherwise, this farce of elections would simply continue, and the world would continue to be in a worse situation.
