15. The burden of proof is on you, not them.
If you ask them to prove Bush won, they will simply point to the election results.

When you cry, "Fraud!", they will tell you to prove it. The allegations and conspiracy theories that have been posted here do not constitute proof. Further, the burden of proof is always on the person who is making the charge. It is usually impossible to prove a negative. (Prove there are no elephants hiding in the trees. You can't see them? They hide really well, don't they? There is no definative proof of fraud? They covered it up really well didn't they?)

They don't have to prove anything. YOU HAVE TO PROVE FRAUD. And you won't be able to.
