Lets get rid of primary elections when electing our president

[RoadRunner79]

The votes do represent individuals , and then that is used to represent different areas of the country.   The President doesn't just represent individuals but a whole nation.  In Congress you see a mix of this, where in the Senate each state has equal footing, whereas they are not equal in the House, but reflect populations.

Not sure you're making any kind of point here.  That we do treat vastly different populations the same dependent on statehood in the senate is not a good argument that we should do so when electing a president.

I'm not saying that it should be like the senate, or that each state should have one vote; or anything like that.   You may note, that I also mentioned the house of representatives, and that the electoral college is a mix of these two ideologies.  As I think about it;  I believe that the word "representative" may not be the correct word to use, as what is being talked about is electing the head of state, not a representative for legislation.   The argument is that the interests of that head of state, should not be on the individuals, but on what is best for the country as a whole.  Do you not think that this is a good idea?
