Defend the Ellectoral College!!

[Annik]

I think it is even more important in the age of spin and big money.

Do you want the speed of information and propoganda to rule? How is that different than never having protection of dissent at all? If what you said happend then all it amounts to is the quickest person to convince the most people that killing Jews is good, would win.

The electoral college is EVEN MORE important now because of the speed of propaganda. It is not only a reminder of no absolute power, it is a speedbump.

I don't want to live in a neighborhood where people think they can drive formula 1s and feel they are intitled to run me over and blame me because I happend to be walking down the street.

You're nuts if you think that the E.C. actually helps with that. The Electoral College makes it so that you don't even have to get 51% to believe your bullshit, just 22% in the right states. It isn't balanced, it isn't fair and it's not representative of the nation's wishes.
