You may not believe this (I couldn't at the time), but I have a very liberal friend who sent out an email promoting getting rid of the Electoral College in order to.... (drum roll)...

...end the tyranny of the majority.

I tolerated his mass-emails up to that point but shot him back an email telling him not to send me any more of his hateful ideas.

Tyranny of the majority?

If they get to this point, there is absolutely no saving them.

"Tyranny of the majority? "

There is such a thing. It is the current sense of the Congress that they can do pretty much anything that can get a majority vote and past the president. Unless the liberal judgess don't like it, of course.

Want an example of a tyranny of the majority closer to home? Home owners' associations.

But to as what your liberal friend is referring to, I have no idea, but is is my deeply held belief that the EC supresses third parties and the true diversity of ideas.
