Good on you if you can manage to read that hysterical horseshit.

I tapped out. I can't take their insanity anymore. It's time to just shoot them.

There is no such thing as a "federal election." Period.

Although I do find it interesting that they are decrying a court for making a decision about elections as being "unfair" because it might not allow courts to make decisions about elections.

Correct. There is no representation of the people at the federal level. The federal government, on paper, represents the states and the states represent the smaller sub-state provincial governments which then represent the people. This is called "Federalism." This is 100% the reason we have the electoral college: so the states get to vote. The people do not vote for the president, they vote for the states to vote for him.

This was understood in the 90s, at least. The wisdom behind it was understood. There has been such a social and educational corruption that it's about time to do something about it. Something real.

I understand it now. They just know it doesn't allow them to take over the country as soon as they want to. So they pretend to b**** about it for other reasons.

It's not an intuitive system so I'm not at all surprised no one would just understand it on their own.

You have to remember that they want big government and you can only get big government if you can have your party control everything forever.

Everything in that article was anti-American dribble. None of it is congruent with how our constitution works.
Were not a democracy.
The justices are appointed for a reason.
Presidents aren't elected by the popular vote.
There is no such thing as a federal election.

And once again, because it can't be stated enough, AMERICA IS NOT A DEMOCRACY. The founders knew that the masses were half retarded.

If Trump had succeeded, he would have “won” the election via the electoral college (itself an anti-democratic relic)...

Ahh yes, the same tired refrain every fucking time. If it goes against (((them))), the EC is an "anti-democratic relic." But if they get their way, then it's "STFU bigot this is democracy working as intended!"

In fact, it is possible Republicans will never lose another election again if this theory is adopted as law.

So exactly what these bolsheviks have been trying accomplish for themselves for DECADES.

There are no obscure portions of the Constitution. It's not that long.

So this may take awhile to see anything develop on, but definately something to watch

That "article" is not news, it's editorial, and absolutely worthless. All rhetoric, few facts.

And then complain "oh there's money for 'conservative' causes". Like those jew assholes like Soros don't buy every politican.
