Or, politicians only focus campaigning efforts on California, Ney York, Pennsylvania, and a Florida because if you can win two of those by a 70-30 margin, you could win he whole damn thing.

You need a 2/3rd majority from the states to amend the constitution. This isn’t happening in regards to the EC.

Because then smaller states would lose governing power. Why the fuck would any of them stay in the union if they didn’t have any say in national politics.

Sure, but they campaigned in abut 25 other states each that wouldn’t get even a sniff in a popular vote election. Trump didn’t even run ads in California.

Look up “representative democracy” and you will find it is a synonym for “republic.” They are one in the same and the US is both.

If you want to use the popular vote as “the will” consider that Clinton failed to achieve a majority vote as well.

How so? We have no idea how a popular vote election would play out. Surely both campaigns would employ different strategies under those circumstances.

We didn’t run a popular vote election. You can’t look at the popular vote results in an electoral election and assume they would be the same if we changed the rules from the get go. Maybe Clinton wins again, maybe Trump does. They both ran election focused on the electoral votes, it doesn’t necessarily play out the…

Won’t happen. Trump is the first president to enter the White House on a pro gay marriage platform. He stood in front of the RNC and scolded them for not accepting the LBGT community.

No way. Look at the cloud shading and pixiliation on the trumpets as compared to the Apple IIgs or Amiga.

Bama didn’t play a top ten team all year. Their non conference is powerhouses like Kent State and Western Kentucky. They have three truly good wins and the rest against a conference thats very top heavy—falling off a talent cliff once you get to the 5th best team.

Appreciate it.

It will be interesting. I actually think UW’s defense matches up well. They are arguably the best defense in the nation and very difficult to run on. Fast line backers to the outside and two first round picks in the secondary.

Washington easily has the best defense of the four teams. The question is if their offense can keep pace.

UW wins by 6. The SEC quit playing defense in 2012.

Obamas approval rating in the US is only about 54%. Many see him as a president who championed a health care law that became nothing more than a poor tax accompanied by insufficient health care coverage. A president who implemented a widespread domestic spying program. Botched the Iraq withdrawal while escalating US…

You know that the rest of the world considers American conservatism to be the same as “classical liberalism.” And it doesn’t really stand for the things you say it does.

Washington has mandatory recycling. They actually look through your trash and fine you if recyclables aren’t in the blue bin.

My dentist literally told me not to worry about quitting. That warning signs of mouth cancers are so easily detectable that anyone who gets annual checkups is st very little risk. Also, name another baseball player who died of smokelss tobacco related cancer. If more than 50% of ball players use it, why aren’t more…

Why are you putting constraints on this rediculous fantasy? Has it occurred to you that I transported with a giant bunker of ammo. Flanks? Artillery? There’s not a projectile from that era that can penetrate the M2A3 Bradley I brought.
