i think who these idiot left thinks of as “founding fathers” are Mao, Lenin, Hitler and Stalin..
The WP is pure deep state. They will say anything to rig election in their favor.
The author is a white male....and, therefore, only speaks from privilege and should be ignored and banished (liberal rules).
That’s the largest pile of steaming bullshit I’ve ever read.
The founding fathers would agree that your education has been a failure, Joshua.
The Electoral College works as it should.
Abolish the electoral college... and replace it with election by state legislatures.
Anything, including selection by random lottery, would be preferable than a direct popular vote for President.
The founding fathers would surely agree that a couple of dozen of you traitors should be lined up and shot against a wall. Other than that, not so much.
Haha, good point!
I’m pretty sure the electoral college functioned exactly as intended.
I think it was a fantastic success...
Its a failure because you lose and thats it!
JEFFERSON ON CITIES & NEED FOR ELECTORAL COLLEGE TO
OFFSET THE INSANITY & LIBERALISM OF THE CITIES!
As Ambassador to France, he witnessed to events (largely justified due to the behavior of the royals) leading to the bloody French Revolution. The Electoral College may have been an effort to avoid the disenfranchisement of rural America and to balance it against the masses in the cities.

The founding fathers wanted the electors to make up their own minds about who should be president, they would have thought that the concept of a faithless elector was nonsense.
45 states will never see a candidate if the electoral college is abolished. But the east and west coast “elite” think that would be just fine.
They will be no United States in 2020 then either.
Electoral college is working exactly as planned.
That they do. This sort of class warfare is as old as civilization, urbanites convinced that they're smarter because they live in a city and have the right to rule because they're smarter. They don't call us "deplorables" for nothing.
The electoral college is a resounding success! If it is every done away with, I would do all I can to get the small states to leave the union.
