Since the Social Security system cannot keep big cash reserves of its own, Gore relies on a two-step process.

The planting of a body, the using of a witch -- it was mockery of a process. I believe that in the system of a real rule of law, my brother would be acquiited. Mexico has not been under the rule of law for the past six years...
