During a statement on Tuesday, former Vice President Al Gore argued that the Electoral College should be abolished in favor of a popular vote system.
Gore said he supported keeping the Electoral College even after the 2000 election, because it tied the states together, but now he has changed his mind and thinks the Electoral College should be eliminated.

Good luck with Al ol’ boy! Just win a supermajority in the House and Senate and get 2/3 of the states legislatures (many red states included) to sign on, and presto!

3/4s of the state legislatures. And 33 are GOP-controlled.

Those 3 million Illegals voting in California along with all the college kids voting both at home and at school would easily throw the election to a liberal. Americans rejected Hitlery.

Do away with the Electoral College and after one election there would be no need for any more elections.

Jimmy Carter is getting on in years. Algore is trying out for Jimmys job as the national village idiot. Big clown shoes to fill there.
Ex-presidents are usually known for their quiet dignity after leaving office, Carter being a prominent exception.
Ex-Vice Presidents... no one ever hears from them or remembers them.
