The fact that very few Americans understand these facts and that the enemedia itself does not understand them is a testament to the success the left has had in (a) selectively controlling the curricula for every local K-12 system in every state, and the education of teachers as well, for the past fifty years, and (b) orchestrating a constant drumbeat of opposition to the Electoral College every time an election year turns up. It started with the children. Now we have a populace composed of multiple generations of adults having zero civic awareness. Add to it the willful ignorance of recent arrivals from Puerto Rico, the Caribbean, Middle East, Africa, and South America, and you have a stew of chaotic proportions. No wonder our elections are off the rails.
That is part of it, but a good part. Good summary.
