Racist??
Both candidates were white.
I guess when you have the IQ of a cucumber, apologies to cucumbers, then “racist” is the first thing to come to mind to cover all situations.
I really like the graphic, Fiddlstix.

a national popular vote would have “disadvantaged” Southern slave states, where blacks could not vote but were counted as three-fifths of a person for the purposes of a population count.
First off, no it would have advantaged them. And second blacks could indeed vote. SLAVES of whatever color could not vote.
So having established that you do not know anything about the subject I thing I will not bother to read anything else of M&M’s ignorant screed.
Three-fifths was to their advantage in that it limited their slave masters representation in congress. That never gets brought up....
Something like California and New York today. They have large populations but since a large number of them are not citizens and not allowed to vote they should not be counted in the census.
Hmmm... perhaps we should bring this idea back.
So what. Women and children in non-slave states couldn’t vote either, but they counted as a whole person for purposes of representation in Congress. Unfair! Unfair!
the people that make this country HAPPEN are sick and tired of the word “racism”.
Yeah, let’s have left-wing moonbats and illegal aliens in The People’s Republic of Cali-friggin’-fornia and New Yawk choose our presidents.
That’s the ticket.....to destruction.
My the Fabian society is getting more testy.
That’s why the elected a black man to two terms in 2008 and 2012. Gotta come up with something better than that.
Hell, most of these Democrat dummies think the whole constitution is racist!!!!
