Say NO to the Popular Vote

[protectionist]

Of course Republicans don't want to abolish the electoral college. They would never win another election if we got rid of it.

No other free nation on Earth has such a system. The majority is supposed to decide who runs their country . The will of the people. The electoral system takes the will of the people away.

They would never win another election because Democrats will keep stuffing ballot boxes with illegal votes of illegal aliens whom they welcome here to VOTE FOR THEM. This is precisely why the electoral college system must be maintained - to PROTECT us from exactly this tyranny Democrats avidly are engaged in and will continue to

In the 2016 election, the electoral college protected us from these tyrants improperly winning an election, using millions of illegal alien votes in California, New York, Illinois, etc

Translation: The EC aka Last Vestige of Slavery is the only way Republicans can win a national election - Please save it!

Because we have had so many years of being educationally dumbed down, democrats honestly believe they can vote to take the voting rights of the heartland away. All they need is the popular vote to eliminate the electoral college and have direct elections by popular vote. They need the popular vote all right, state by state.

and if the democrats won a few elections because of it, they'd defend it to the death.

you don't care about right and fair, you only seem to care about doing whatever it takes to stop the other side.

What's fair is electing our leaders bases on what the people want. Hey, the people may actually want a Republican president in the future. As much as I would dislike like that, it's the will of the people.

You know, if President Bone Spur actually won the popular vote, I'd give him credit for that.

He never tried to. Neither did Hillary. Since, you know, it's meaningless and all.

There are 5 children, 3 boys and 2 girls. The boys vote to rape the girls.

Democracy in action.

Which proves once again that democracy has flaws, but it is the best form of government yet created.

An informed population, able to discern right from wrong and how to cast their vote in the best interest of society as a whole, is necessary and sufficient to prevent such discrimination.

Which is why the right wing hates progressives, liberals, Democrats and democracy.

An informed population, able to discern right from wrong and how to cast their vote in the best interest of society as a whole,

Which is why Trump got 30 states, and Hillary only 20

A Simple argument. Try this Simon, do the research in the link I posted on population in the 30 states, and then see what percentage of the vote HRC and Trump received in Red States and Blue States.

The popular vote, dumbed down enough for progressives to understand.

again - until the day that the system works in your favor, then you will tell anyone who tries to touch it to back off. the system has been around since day 1 of our country and is doing just fine to ensure no one area and dominate the rest - ie, the entire purpose of it.

but lob your insults out there cause that's all you're really doing here isn't it? getting your jollies and shots in.

So, you supported Prop 8 in California where the will of the people was to determine that marriage was between one man and one woman, right? You thought that the courts should not have overturned a clear majority vote win, right?

We're talking apple and oranges here. We're discussing how our leaders are elected. The issue with prop 8 was that it infringed upon personal freedoms. It's like how people in the south would've preferred to keep segregation but they it was discrimination.

Electing a leader isn't going to infringe upon someone's personal rights.

The whole if America doesn't live in New York and California. There are 300 million people in America. 40 million live in California and 19 million live in New York. So if you deduct the 59 million people. There are still 241 million people in America. Let's say half of those people aren't citizens or ineligible to vote. That still leave 141 million non California and New York residents to vote.

Your argument is the same lame ass argument Republicans use for keeping the antiquated electoral college around.

Even before President Bone Spur, I always believed the electoral college should be abolished. It makes no sense to keep it around and removes the will of the people.

FALSE! It PROTECTS the AMERICAN people from unscrupulous schemers (Democrats), stacking the population with immigrants (legal and illegal) to vote FOR THEM.

Also you show your ignorance by posting the notion that people who aren't citizens and ineligible to vote, don't vote. Of course they do, just as they do many other things illegally, and ther is virtually nothing to stop them from voting. 22 states don't even require ID, and those that do, don't require one that shows citizenship/voting eligibility.

Contrary to what you wrongly say, the electoral college is not only NOT ANTIQUATED, it is just the opposite of that. It is needed now, more than ever.

Oh I see. We can make excuses for why we don't like the popular vote when it suits us, and then insult people who are against it when we want our way.

Sounds like a 4-year-old making a justification for bad behavior.

Mob rule is ALWAYS wrong.

This is also why Democrats want to keep bringing in illegals and legalize them over time. Although they already have illegals voting fraudulently for them in every election. They could care less about them, just as they turned their backs on all the Democrat caused genocides (such as Syria) in the world. All these scumbags want is the votes, which would give them the power to transform the country into a psuedo-communist shithole such as Venezuela.

Not only do they not care about illegals, the Left doesn't give a shit about the country either, actually they hate America and have a "unique" take on its history.

A biddable kool-aid drinker ^^^

Q. Is he as dumb as he seems, or is he an agent provocateur

NOTE: Vote now, but your vote may not count, we employ a system we call the electoral college, and we will select each member of the college based on gerrymandered considerations.

How would gerrymandering impact 538 electoral votes?
Be as specific as you can.

you mean like getting to determine who you choose to do business with?
or that you must allow men to pee in the ladies room?
or that guns are under attack and if they can't get those, ban bullets?

you mean rights like those would never be lost depending on who was in office?

 

[JimBowie1958]

are there any other countries with an electoral college in it's constitution?

The Vatican
Germany
India
Italy
Burundi,
Estonia,
Kazakhstan,
Madagascar,
Myanmar,
Pakistan,
Trinidad and Tobago
Vanuatu
Electoral college - Wikipedia

And in addition, every Parliamentary system that selects its head of state by choosing from its membership a Prime Minister essentially has an Electoral College that consists of the members of Parliament.

Very few countries elect their head of state through a direct vote.

DODGE! Just because Prop 8 might have been about some personal freedom doesn't invalidate Darkwind's point. You're all for winner take all when it suits you, but if you're the loser from it suddenly you're on the side of 1 man (judge) overrulling the votes of millions of people.

 

[Wry Catcher]

The states will never vote to disenfranchise themselves. Liberals, in the throes of their liberal insanity, believe that New York and California can vote to take the vote from all of the rest of the states. The "popular vote" is only the vote of the lopsided coasts who believe that they have a right to tell everyone else how to live and who to vote for. After all, they know better than everyone else.

Of course And it is up to us to make sure that Democrats do not succeed in this attempt to rig the country just for them, and their immigrant vote stacking, minority pander, Muslim ass-kissing, gay-loving, affirmative action anti-white racism, globalist lunacy.

The more you post this crap, aka, damn lies, the less credible (or sane) you appear to be.

The fact appears to be, you are a hater, and that is not healthy for you nor an ethos a real American patriot would hold.

Seems to me anyone in favor of a popular vote over the electoral college is incredibly naive, uninformed and impulsive with a bit of immaturity.

Oh the irony - yes, we need to give the 200,000 registered voters in Wyoming at least ten times the voice of the 18 million registered voters in California.

Electoral College is 'vestige' of slavery, say some Constitutional scholars
Yes, The Electoral College Really Is A Vestige Of Slavery. It's Time To Get Rid Of It.

HA HA. Never let a good opportunity to toss out the HATE CARD go by, unused. Although I know you have no basis, I still feel compelled to make you account - so what is this "hate" you speak of ? Anyone or group in particular ?

Also, you may now show upon what you base your accusation of "damn lies"

Take your time. Think of a good one.
