Undereducated people such as Eric Holder fail to understand that the Electoral College is there to protect them from tyranny. Their lack of knowledge of American history and their failure to understand the profound wisdom of the Founders causes people such as Eric Holder to speak as fools.
This is true of many liberals, but not him. He probably understands full well that it was put in place to protect citizens from a tyrannical government, which is why he hates it.
On the other hand, I believe he is one of those jackasses that trots out the 3/5 Compromise of 1787 as evidence of institutional racism against blacks, when the compromise is really evidence of just the opposite, that there were people in the federal government who were trying to eradicate slavery.
