Title:Why Elections when Israel`s leaders are often UNELECTED
Name:Dolly
City: State:
Olmert was announced PM during the Formation of the 31st Israeli Government thus stepping into Sharon`s shoes... and Livni became Prime Minister Designate after a polling of 44000 out of a nation of SEVEN MILLION with the only ones eligible to vote and was voted in by under 1%! Consequently why not give a fair chance to Natanyahu to become 3rd Unelected Premier when it seems he could be leading by a goodly margin and then save some of the 2/3 Billion which the Country is hard-pressed to spend.... Are Elections then just jolly good fun for a change... ?
