...but the leadership of the democrat party, at both the state and national levels, is fundamentally evil. I mean it. They are satanic. They are out to crush America and change it forever. I hope they all catch a lingering, painful, and incurable venereal disease.

I am not a Democrat, but I am no longer a Republican.

I feel that the Democrats want to feed off the spoils of a devastated United States.

I feel that the Republicans are totally out of touch with reality and take Capitalism to its most brutal extremes at the cost to those not a part of the party oligarchy.

I despise the idea of political parties as a general rule.

I know, I know. It is illogical that I feel such sentiments.

I prefer the Neolithic idea of a simple majority vote. States would have nothing to do with it.

There are X number of eligible voters in the US who cast ballots. Candidate A got the most votes from the entire US, so that candidate wins.

That is my silly pipe-dream.

LOL, I do stand corrected. Thank you, Sir (Ma'am?).

Correct me if I am wrong (and I know you will), but I don't recall the Electoral College being addressed anywhere in the Constitution. So I don't understand the claim that Massachusett's and 5 other states intend to "bypass the Constitution".
