By the people? For the people? Or is it fuck the people?
This is why the electorial vote sucks! There is only about 200 people that choose who is president!

...along with gerrymandering; it will take
a sustanded groundswell to reverse.
People stated he mistreated his workers;
went bankrupt- yet his supporters think they
are helping the country. He is out of his depth.

Learned a new word. Had to look up gerrymandering. I've heard "jury rigged before', but I've never heard that word.

@TheGreatShadow believe me it's
an antiqiluated method of chopping
up an opposing voting geographical
area or population by redrawing the voteing
districts!!!

@BBJong Not arguing. Just saying I never heard that word. But the system has failed.

Never has...are you shocked? Because of this feature within the system though, we also safeguard against tyranny of the masses. Although I must admit, our government hasn't followed the intended system for decades.

Not shocked at all.

The two senator appointment was designed just for the purpose of states not having an equal vote

That's why we have two houses. The house of representatives was created to give more weight in decision making too the more populous states. The Senate is intended to give equal representation to each state. This is one of many compromises that was necessary to establish a constitution for our country.

If you want an undemocratic and screwed up branch of government look at the supreme court. Members are not elected, serve as long as they choose, and in no way answer to the citizens of the country.

Oh, it doesn't bother me as much that 548 Americans elect the president as it does that Russia decided which ones decided.

That's just wrong.

I know. But, they say every vote counts. HORSE SHIT!
