If we want free-range delegates, what about a free-range presidential college?
During the general election, we could allow members of the presidential college to vote for whoever they want to.
With his amazing powers, Cruz just might end up winning the White House. That would be helpful because he has so much trouble on the campaign trail.
We could change our national anthem to “the Banana Boat Song”!
Sure.
We really don’t need States rights. They are really just big counties that all serve a central government.
Uniformity!
All for the glory of our great leader Obama!

The “Party Machine” or the citizens who vote?
If no team of candidates receives a majority of the votes cast by the Electoral College on the first ballot, then the election is then decided - for President - in the House of Representatives and - for Vice President - in the Senate.
Are Trumpeters saying the Electoral College should quick be changed to plurality voting, just like they are saying the Republican nomination should be changed to plurality voting?
I know many of you guys only recently joined the Republican Party, and I welcome you. And, if you win by our rules, more power to you. But, joining somebody else’s party and saying we have to change our rules to favor your candidate who, like you, only recently joined our party, does take a lot of chutzpah.
But you are going from chutzpah to ridiculous to say “we” should also change the Electoral College because if your guy doesn’t win get a majority on the first ballot there, the decision will be made by people (the members of the House of Representatives) that Trump doesn’t control.
Trump is the frontrunner. How about focusing on wining the remaining contests. Leave the cry-babying for later.
“Cruz is ignorant of how he’s being played…”
And his wife is ugly. Marco is short. Who would vote for a face like Carly’s. Megyn is bleeding from her wherever. Oh, and Cruz is a pussy.
Or we could change it so you can win the electoral college with just 1/3 of the vote, then maybe Trump could win.
Toupees are comin' back, believe it! :')
“Cruz was heard muttering to Jeb-You’re-Next: “Trump will NEVER be the nominee.” “
Traitor, NWO open borders,Republican Senator Jeff Flake was proud of sating: “ I’m a conservative....an ARIZONA conservative! “ I wanted to smash his face. Worse than McCain.
Now Cruz needs to say : “ I’m a conservative....a BUSH conservative! “
Cruz was heard saying that??? SMH.
YES
Federalists gave up their version of ‘free range delegates’ almost immediately.
Cruz supporters refuse to learn from them.
So who is doing best on the campaign trail, not counting straw polls?
‘Liberal Donnie Trump is a total loser. He ran a freaking casino into bankruptcy ...’
I wish I could be such a ‘loser’. Don’t you? Billionaire loser.
‘He would destroy America with his Leftist views ...’
Like the 15% corporate tax and a return to the successful trade policies that kicked free trader England’s tail. My kind of ‘leftist destruction’.
‘Liberal Donnie should create a fake country like he created a fake “university” ...’
TRUMP UNIVERSITY HAS A 98% APPROVAL RATING

Sure there are crony-heavy laws to make new colleges more difficult to start. Makes him a real ‘loser’.
I’m saying that this delegate system is about as popular as the electoral college, especially since bribing delegates is legal. [Note link near top.]
