You and I are often in agreement. Not this time.

The Electoral College is a leftover from the era of slavery and right now it lets Senators representing under 30% of the population control the national agenda. Twice this century the EC has delivered us awesomely inadequate Republican presidents who had lost the popular vote.

I have absolutely no reservations about southern conservatives being "oppressed" by not getting things their way because southern conservatives are for the most part utterly horrible people. Yes, yes, I know, there are no "good and bad" people, only "our and their" people. Well, not in this case.

Minority rule has done America no good, and just look where it's brought us. A high school dropout in the House, a Libertarian in the Senate, a madwoman on the Supreme Court. I say end the EC and if the conservatives are so unhappy they can secede, operate under conservative economics, and starve to death.
