Without pointing any fingers or being political I would recommend to
everyone to read the Constitution of the United States. Also read the
writings of Jefferson and Franklin on this subject. They saw democracy
as the death of a country so created our Constitutional Republic. The
public vote (or mob rule) was never intended to elect our Federal
leaders. This way large population centers can not dictate what the
rest of the people, who they can't identify with, what to do. The only
change I would suggest would be "One state, One vote" and that would
take an act of congress and an amendment to the Constitution.

Popular votes are(were) delegated to local politics where the people
live and work and are(were) intended as such. The Constitution is very
specific on this point.

Hate to toss a bunch of water on a nice flamewar, but Red's in Canada.
Whatever the state of his employment, it has very little to do with the state of
the US healthcare, judicial, or electoral system.

Y'all carry on, now.

However, to say that he did not win the popular vote is simply false.


Yes, Bush won in Florida any way you count it. I think the poster must have
been talking about the national popular vote, which Gore won by half a mill
or mill, not that it matters.

And now they bitch and moan over needing to overhaul healthcare. What a

As if there's any one single reason to such a complex issue.


No, you're right. Things are almost always more complicated. But don't go
around robbing banks and then complain about the high cost of security.
