The math suggests we are headed for civil war

[DinkinFlicka]

Is this the results of the ivy league millionaire adults being in charge? Looks like they are finding out the real world is different than a classroom.

well....

DANG OLE LIBTURDS N THERE COLIGE DEGEERS! LERNIN BOUT REEL WURLD NOW GAWBLESS

It is either ...

I REKIN THE ANSR TU YUENS QUESTUN IS NAH?

or

Lovey, did our innocent Darwin Charles Flicka III just say no to a question posed on the internet?

 

[luthervol]

“I just know it will be better”
- Luther

From the same clan that brought us -
“We have to pass it to know what’s in it”

You left off this part.......

Luther: "The main result would be that a candidate would be motivated to campaign in every state....not just purple states.
How is that a bad thing?"

85Sugar: "Um, oh, uh.........................." "Luther just knows it will be better.....ha..ha...ha" (I hope people don't realize I can't answer the question)

You are making a great case for socioeconomic disparity and the positions of power they tend to produce.

Just following your lead.

Just following your lead.

I appreciated it!

I’m not asking you anything philosophical here.

You proposed a new model, and refuse to publish the easily attainable data on its impact.

I think we all know why.

 

[82_VOL_83]

I could even go with the popular vote if net zero tax payers couldn't vote.

 

[VolStrom]

I could even go with the popular vote if net zero tax payers couldn't vote.

Uh oh, my SS check might be less than my federal tax bill this year, I guess I'm screwed.

 

[Go aeiou]

What is your definition of "net zero tax payers".

This is a math thread, and Luther should not be here.
Hahahaha and he is not at all philosophical. Good one.

I'm pretty sure you haven't the slightest clue as to why.
But the one thing we can all be sure of is that you continued to dodge a simple question.

Recap:
I stated specifically how it would impact the campaigns, which is the whole rationale behind the proposal, and asked how that could be a bad thing. (the question which you never answered)

You then took it on some irrelevant tangent while dodging the specific question.

Now see if you can process it this go around........

I don't care (but evidently you do) how it would have changed, if at all, the results from previous elections, because it makes ABSOLUTELY ZERO difference to the reasoning behind the proposal.

 

[whodeycin85]

Outsiders need not apply they will destroy you.

That is the message they sent to Trump

 

[AM64]

I think the electoral votes of each state should be cast in proportion to the popular vote in that state.
Winner takes all seems counterproductive, proportional splitting keeps states which are not purple (about 42 states) much more relevant.

Of course you would because then the EC would be irrelevant, and the outcome of splitting the EC vote would just make the outcome parallel the popular vote. Your proposal is simply abolishing the EC under the guise of something else - that's the way you dems and leftists roll.

 

[AM64]

There are currently living/breathing Americans who just gave Trump 4 million dollars for his defense fund.
That's not rent free, these morons are actually paying him to live in their heads.

So what. The Trump opposition is being fully funded by taxpayers. One donation is freely given for a purpose; the other "contribution" is taken by power and the donor has no say in its use.

No it wouldn't. Small states would still have their same number of electoral votes.....that wouldn't change at all. A vote in Wyoming would still have five times the weight of a cote in California.
The weight carried by each state WOULD NOT CHANGE AT ALL.
Do you understand that? Honest question.

Tax dollars have always been used to fund the judicial branch, how else could it be?

And I don't care if people give Trump their money; I just find it humorous. That's not letting Trump live rent free in your head, that's paying Trump to live in your head.

Calm down.

You are proposing a change to a system you don’t like.

The burden is not on me.

Where does showering with your teenage daughter figure into the disgusting human being continuum?

On the Continuum Lutherii, it lies above talking about grabbing an adult female, who is not your daughter, by the hoo ha.

 

[landscapingvol]

Where does showering with your teenage daughter figure into the disgusting human being continuum?

Irrelevant, right there beside immigration and inflation. The only thing that matters is Luther’s concept of reality which is a fairytale somewhere in Georgia, outside of Atlanta, that doesn’t have inflation or crime

Asa Hutchinson, Your next president of the US?

 

[GroverCleveland]

Are you referring to me?

Not according to what I that I was replying to. Didn't aeiou say they were a teacher? After demonstrating in this thread how ignorant of civics they were? Aeiou was who I was referring to.

No, he claimed he was married to a teacher and his FIL was a principle. I am a Civics teacher. That's why I was asking.

You notice he fled the conversation. LMAO

Just returned.
Questions?

I will be fleeing again around 9 pm.
I'm one of those "early to bed, early to rise" people.
