America is legally and constitutionally a REPUBLIC (limited decentralized government), NOT a democracy (tyranny of the majority).

America is a Free Constitutional Republic no matter how bad our current acting politicians are.

I always thought Congress consisted of 535 members. Where did you find the additional 100?

Re: 635

Did you mean 535?

Or, have I misunderstood something?

I think you meant 535. The House has 435 members and the U.S. Senate has 100.

Each state gets one elector for each member of Congress. DC gets three electors, making 538 the full number of electoral college electors for Presidental elections.

As Dr. Larry Arnn of Hillsdale College writes in his brilliant book, "The Founders' Key", America is run as a bureaucratic (administrative) state ... which is where the real power lies: It exists with the thousands upon thousands of bureaucrats -- unelected bureaucrats at that!

No, your thread's title isn't any more deserving of attention that anybody else's. Mind your manners.
