I would think the US Constitution would prohibit Iowa or any other state from doing this.

It calls for Iowa to join with other states and pledge its electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote, no matter who wins in Iowa.

Changing the electoral college in that fashion would be the ultimate disenfranchisement of a whole state. It would mean that the majority of voters of a state could be rendered completely meaningless. And, if the state's total votes are rendered meaningless, then why even bother voting?

I dont think many people understand what is going on in our country today.

It has nothing to do with what is right or wrong. Nothing to do with whether or not Iowa has a voice.

It has to do with “political ideology” and a one standard world.

You see, the electoral college stands in the way of the liberals having there way in certain states.

This is a very scary time in this country right now.

Have you noticed hoew all this liberal stuff is coming at us so fast? All this stuff has been planned for many many years and was just in waiting for the right time. Now, it is being shoved down our throats while peoples attention is focused on making ends meet and not much more.

The stuimulus package, which somehow was renamed “economic recovery act” is not a stimulus bill at all. The reason that most of the provisions in the bill do not become effective until 2010 or 2011 is because it is planned to have an effect on the 2010 and 2012 election cycle.

It is a bill to funnel money to the democrat constituency and keep them voting democrat.

Wake up people!!

After trial balloons like this have “flown” without rebellion, the communist traitors will be emboldened to rewrite our Constitution. Study how Hugo Chavez subverted his country — Obama surely has.
