"Lawrence Jacobs, a University of Minnesota political science professor...said dissatisfaction with the Electoral College system is growing, even in states that may benefit from the current setup. A lot of Americans "don't like the Electoral College system. They find it to be out of step with expectations about democracy, expectations that our founding fathers did not necessarily share," he said.

The professor is clearly trying to point out the fact that the Founders did not want a democracy.

...the Founders did not want a democracy.

And thank God they didn't. Pure unbridled democracy is nothing but absolute confusion and is barely distinguished from an unruly mob.

Thanks for clarifying that WO4TG, our Founding Fathers were far wiser than these latter day mental midgets posing as professors and philosophers, who think nothing of tampering with the foundations of our Constitutional Republic, oblivious to the chaos they would be unleashing.
