May 17, 2000 -- This year’s presidential election will
be the first in which both major-party candidates
recognize that stock owners constitute a majority of
Americans who vote and may soon be a majority of the
general public. The increase in the number of American
investors has had a ripple effect on American politics,
shifting the strategies and rhetoric of both parties

does anyone know the truth of the above statement? the numbers i mean, we all know about
the rhetoric.

better yet, what data do they use (or could be using) to make that contention?
