You couldn't be lower on the intelligence continuum then where I placed you. I might need another continuum because the more you post and the choices you make when given the opportunity and the answers are easy but you still get them wrong, the lower you go. How is this even possible?

I know the answer: You're trolling.

Of course. You’ve posted countless times on here that the country voted for Clinton. AOC won her district with the pop vote just like Clinton. The EC saves the country from the majority stupid voters. Trump is no prize, but we’re significantly better off considering the alternative.

The EC saves the country from outlier states that have a huge voter block if not a few states would be more powerful than the sum of the parts. Imagine if one state like California could vote 8,000,000 to 1 for one candidate and that person won the election even if they lost the popular vote in all other states. This Republic would be doomed. But that is what the new leftist loons are proposing and knuckle dragging the rest of their party to this idea.

There's a big difference between "good student" and "smart."

No, you can't be a complete idiot and graduate cum laude from BU, but that isn't necessarily a marker of a great deal of intelligence. The thing with AOC is that, like with any politician, I don't know whether to take her statements at face value (i.e., she genuinely believes what she's saying) or write them off as statements designed to pander to people. If it's the former, then she truly is not a very smart person, particularly on economic matters, and remember, she majored in econ at BU.

The real question is was it online or was she on a campus. I don't mean that to be an insult to online students. I finished up my grad degree as a working adult taking a mix of online and classroom work. It appears more obvious though if you pay for online courses you will tend to get a better grade and higher probability to get your degree.

How To Win The Presidency With 23 Percent Of The Popular Vote
Initially when we did this story, we found that if you start with the biggest-electoral-vote states, the answer is 27 percent. However, we have an update: as Andrej Schoeke very nicely pointed out to us on Twitter, there's another way to do it (via CGP Grey) that requires even less of the popular vote: start with the smallest-electoral-vote states. Our math went through a few iterations on this but by our final math, in 2012 that could have meant winning the presidency with only around 23 percent of the popular vote.

So a person could lose the popular vote 77% to 23% and win the election.
The person with more than 3 times the number of votes loses.
That's what the righties who recognize they are continually losing ground hang their hats on.

That dumb b**** from Somalia says that some people did something in regards to 9/11. The New Yorker shares a picture of that something and that’s considered an attack against progressive women of color. Can’t make this up.
