Should the electoral college be eliminated?
with it, a person could loose every state by 1 vote except california, and win california by a landslide and then loose the race. with it, democrats in red states feel thier vote doesn't count, and republicans in blue states feel thier vote doesn't count. if the electoral college were to be eliminated, then everyone's vote would count. |

do you know why the founding fathers created the electoral college?
because they though the average american was too dumb to choose thier own president... they may be right. you voted for someone in your community who you could trust to make a good decision to go vote for your area at the electoral college. but with the advent of politcal parties, pledged electors came about and now look where it's got us? people don't even know the issues and they scream vote for ____. |
