That’s why I can’t understand any Libertarian or Republican agreeing with the popular vote chorus.

You wanna break up the union? Then let the majority of states get dictated to by the population and media centers on the east and west coasts. When they find they’re values and concerns are no longer even discussed, there will be no other recourse.

It's similar to the argument regarding "democracy". The U.S. is not a "democracy", it is a "constitutionally limited democratic republic".

Our Founders understood the difference, the difference is dramatic, and the evils of democracy are what we are witnessing every day here.
