I've always been anti-electoral college and I don't think I'm alone on that.

Donald Trump himself protested it during the 2012 election. Irony at it's finest.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

This is nothing new. Since Bush won in 2000 people have been bitching about the Electoral College for every election after it.

"integral part of our election process"? so that makes things that were made 200 years ago shouldn't be slightly adjusted for modern times especially if the people want it?

Ummm okay.

The other thing you have to do is reinstate the write-in vote. That way, if you know somebody who’s really cool. you could write in and make him a candidate. Then you’re not gonna be stuck with freeze-dried candidates.

Since 1888 there's only been two times that the candidate that clearly won the popular vote lost the election. Gore and Clinton. Both democrats. And both elections where the GOP led congress went out of their way to redistrict states in efforts to make it easier for the Republican candidate to win over large metropolitan areas.

And lets talk about Putin's hackers and Wikileaks' constant efforts to hurt Clinton as well as the FBI inserting itself into the election with only 10 days to go.

You want to talk about sad?

Redistrict? Isn't that due to the results of a census. Or is having a census every ten years a grand conspiracy to have Republicans garner more votes?

If you want to talk about sad then how about the number of people who were susceptible to the "Arkansas Sudden Death Syndrome" that knew the Clintons - now that is really sad.

What's sad is buying a nice delicious hamburger then having it accidentally fall onto the floor.

Not necessarily republicans, mostly whichever side owns congress.
