No offense, but what have you been smoking? This is an obvious power grab just like the gang of fourteen pulled. If this catches on, there will be hell to pay. Small red states will have no voice at all, and rats will win every presidential election from here on out. When considering the proposal in connection with voter demographics, it would completely undermine electoral choice.

Yup, we live in a constitutional Republic, not a pure Democracy. The red/blue-state divide should make it as clear as ever why we don't have the popular vote.
