Oh yes, Ruth, let’s go with the National Popular Vote - you know, that thing that is not mentioned anywhere in the Constitution. That thing that has never been used, not once, in the history of our nation. Not to choose a president. Not to ratify or amend the Constitution. Not to pass a law. Never. Not once.

Good luck with that. I’m sure the other 49 states will be more than willing to allow California to choose the president every election.

How Buzzy even got confirmed; damn rubber stamp Senate of the past...

Technically, even w/ a pure ‘popular vote’, the Constitution would still stymie the Socialist agenda.

Problem is, IMO, we no longer have Constitutional protections. They have been suspended, trampled and violated over the past 100 yrs+ that ‘president’ is king, regardless of how the same conflicts w/ the Constitution (IE: 2nd A. vs. ‘gun laws’, SS\MediXYZ\welfare vs. 5th\13th).

The 9th and 10th are but footnotes in history. The *only* saving grace is the little ‘privilege’ of carry they allow SOME. Else, I suspect, we’d be full Western Bloc mode already.
