Right just like the civil war was about state’s rights and not slavery (hint it was about the state’s rights to own slaves).

It’s not good design since it means the ministry can rule. If one party isn’t getting enough popular vote to win they need to change their policies to appeal to more people. In the current system republicans can lean into their racist and xenophobic policies while still capturing enough of their base, white uneducated males

When the electoral college was conceived, all the states sans Massachusetts were slave states. Your thinking of the 3/5’s clause which was designed to give less populated states more representation.

They are part of the same thing.

And either way are we all saying we can’t update saying that was developed 200 years ago?

Biden is not inspiring on any level. He is really very bland and not a progressive at all. There is no way he will be reelected in 2024... I don't think he will even run... and that's just fine with me and most Democrats as well.

The problem is, there's a good chance they'll be stuck with Kamala as the candidate, and facts being facts, she's not a strong candidate. Too much emphasis is put on it being someone's "turn" and not enough emphasis is put on finding a legit, good candidate.

The left isn't going to go after him. His lenders will foreclose on his broke, non-tax paying, non-bill paying butt and he'll run to Father Putin to avoid it.

Yes, Dems have to jettison the far left activitsts just as the Republicans need to jettison the far right.

The far right doesn’t exist in terms of any kind of base. The far left has burned cities and killed people for 6 months. One is a much bigger problem than the other.

I think partially it being force fed to people as well. The people at the top of these political machines make a lot of money. There are very few people at the top. Millions of people gives thousands a dollars every year to these machines. As a society, we are no further along than we were years ago. There are people that have been creating and passing laws more than 20 years. How can a 60,70,80 year old individual effectively legislate for a changing demographic, economy, society, world. So yes, we all have to change, but we can't change until we are able to have civil discourse. I am just as guilty about that as the next person.

I dont understand donating money to politics. Screw that.

Hey conservatives on this board who always say “you don’t see the ‘right’ going around rioting and causing chaos”, I present you with Exhibit A: this 🤡.

Appears there are extreme characters on both sides. Who knew.

Your post is asinine. You're trying to compare someone on a message board to actual democrats looting, rioting, and burning buisnesses.

I’d be all for it, but I don’t know how you authenticate all those votes unless you make people register IP addresses or tie PINs to SS# which are randomly generated and texted at the time of vote or something. Seems like an incredible undertaking.

I have like triple authentication just to work from home now.. It takes me an average of 10 minutes....sign in with password, VPN code in email, final is a verify via Duo app on my cell phone...its a pain but I understand we deal with PHI for all 50 states

Like it or not, she will probably become our 47th President... some time in the next 3 years, would be my guess.

Yeah a few population centers that account for the majority of the us population l. I don’t know how this is hard to understand.

It’s not hard to understand. It’s just not popular here. The “few cities deciding the election” is also a myth. New York/LA/etc. don’t have anywhere near the amount of people to rule the over the country.

The far right just tried to to shoot up the Philadelphia convention center in an attempt to stop vote counting. I thinkcthe far right is plenty dangerous.

No they’re not. The EC had nothing to do with slavery. It was a slave nation with one state that did not allow slavery. The 3/5 clause was about boosting representation for rural states on the basis of slavery. Two totally different things. Slaves did not vote in presidential elections.

How is that "clear"? You are using some of the same kind of bitter rhetoric that Democrats used four years ago. There will be investigation after investigation by Senate Republicans into the Bidens... and it will all prove something we already suspected - there really isn't much difference in the two parties. They both handle victory and defeat with the same amount of class - or lack thereof.

Dead people voting, taking ballots late. Why were Trumps people not allowed to observe the counts?

I told my wife weeks ago this would happen, Trump would lead in several states but them dems would "find" the right amount of mail in ballots to beat him.
