States Need an Electoral System to Protect the Rights of the Counties

Actually, we are a democracy. You clearly have no idea what a democracy is. You are sorely lacking in a proper education.

May I suggest some reading material?

Missed civics class I see.​

The U.S. is a Democratic Constitutional Republic​

The U.S. is a Democratic Constitutional Republic, and Yes, It Matters - Intellectual Takeout

James Madison, the father of the U.S. Constitution and primary author of the Bill of Rights, repeatedly emphasized that the United States is a “republic” and not a “democracy.”

We are not a democracy. Why does every liberal believe we are.

The troll is an anti American pos from New Zealand.

Thank you. So what about how do we decide how to control the government???

Are we sure it is how it should be - shit head???

The streetlights are on and I hear your mom calling.

Bye idiot

Please don't go - I need you to guide me to what ever it is that you think I need to be.

How about we just let the majority of the people decide?

There's a thing called "rights" of the minority and the tyranny of the majority

How can they be “rights” if this is something that has never been implemented?

Michigan doesn't have a county of 100 people. There are other considerations. Farming communities shouldn't be controlled by Detroit. A mining county shouldn't be controlled by a county whose residents are 80% on the government dole. Counties wealthy in natural resources shouldn't be controlled by Wayne county

Mines are people too...

Probably because they understand the concept of dictionaries.

I know, I know, what are dictionaries?

Wish I could help, but it would end up at a dictionary.

Yes, it's called minority rule.

No wonder that document is so dysfunctional.

Have you ever googled "political map of 'your state'"?

Here's my state. Yet our governors are far left Democrats or RINO Republicans. Tiny sections of certain few counties dictate our governors. These governors don't represent the People of the state of Michigan

Show us your state

We just need better candidates. Trump sucks. Biden sucks. Obama, Romney, McCain and Clinton sucked.

We just need better candidates.

Warren, AOC and Sanders wouldn't make it through the primaries. You're full out of luck.

We know what you are, what you need to be is gone.

I'm out of luck? I wouldn't support those three if you paid me.
