In my view, they set up a system where with no political parties Americans elected electors, and they elected a president. That is called a republic.

We now have a system in which multiple parties put up their candidate, Americans elect that candidate, electors rubber stamp it. That’s almost a pure democracy.

I prefer voting in my portion of the state of Ohio for a known, extremely competent, patriotic elector who will join with others to choose a stellar person to be this nation’s chief executive.
