Weird, someone else says it was so that fascism can’t take root. Which is it?

but they are not equally bad, and “undemocratically” blocking one from office, had she won, is not the same as “undemocratically” blocking the other.

Fascism wasn’t even a thing when the electoral college was put into place.

Please tell me exactly why the EC was put in place. Because politics was not supposed to be a career path, it was supposed to be a selfless period of serving the greater need of the people for a few years before going back to your regular job.

The United States isn’t a direct democracy. Never has been. It’s always been that we elect people to vote on our behalf. If you don’t like it, then work to change the system. Don’t just you pick a different form of government and say that’s the true way.

Funny how the Federalist papers are old and irrelevant (they aren’t actually law!) when they support a political idea that some don’t think is right, but suddenly the true foundation of the Constitution when a part of it benefits their argument.

My 2013 3 was my first brand new car :P

The newer 3s definitely aren’t as sporty feeling as the previous generation, for sure. They feel massive inside, while the older ones are cozy inside, but not cramped.

I do love the looks my car gets. I was driving to work last week, ogling a Porsche Carrera going the other way. I noticed he was staring at my car, too :)

But they hold their value well because people remember them being bulletproof 20 years ago.

GM did that back in the mid 2000s with the Auto Show in Motion.

Honestly, Mazda’s color lineup sucks. Red, black, white, 3 shades of silver and sometimes a blue that looks more grey.

2012 and up 2.0 Mazda 3s are Skyactiv. The 2.5 isn’t yet, but they’re designing a motor to replace that one.

A plane is like a horse. Cheap-ish to buy, but the maintenance and storage costs are astronomical. $30k will get you a pretty darn good car, but will get you a problem child worn out bucket of an airplane.

Mattis is pretty no-nonsense. With any luck, he could put a firm cap on the F-35's costs and stop Lockheed from continuing to suck the DoD budget dry.

He’s from Manhattan, home to the duckface.

Ever since his victory speech the night of the election, he’s been relatively humble and subdued.

Mmmm, carnoli
