It was put in place to stop, NY, LA, and a few other major metropolitan areas from turning the rest of the nation into nothing but serfs.

Amazing how rabid proponents of pure democracy (over constitutional republic; “popular vote for POTUS” being their rallying cry) are so quick to throw away the every-way-you-squint-at-it results and leap to an oligarchy (in this case, strict power of the Electors) just because they don’t like the results of the rules they played by & advocated.

Wow, talk about revisionist history! I think I can say with near-absolute certainty that, when our forefathers created the electoral college, most of them never envisioned the American left of 2016.

What's up with liberal Signer quoting Hamilton approvingly . . . the Electors were supposed to be “men most capable of analyzing the qualities adapted to the station, and acting under circumstances favorable to deliberation, and to a judicious combination of all the reasons and inducements which were proper to govern their choice.”

Today it is unheard of for a liberal to quote a founding father without rebuking their sexism, their racism, their having servants without paying minimum wage. . .

Here's what is at play: Signer is desperate for a strategy to prevent the electoral college from doing its duty, so . . . Signer is using the words of founding fathers to appeal to Trump's electors in the college hoping they will, somehow, believe Hamilton and others would really like to see Clinton elected because she best would preserve the ideas of the founding fathers. Signer does not believe this; he hopes electors might.

That is a long shot - over 70 percent chance it will not work.

Hey TIME, gather your troops and we will gather ours.

I welcome it.

[Bullish]

This from people that wanted to elect a massive blob of criminal corruption in a pantsuit.

The left has shown itself repeatedly in the last week and a half to be anti-democratic and contemptuous of regular Americans. Beyond that, it takes an extraordinary amount of hubris and lack of self-awareness for anyone in the press to call someone else a “demagogue,” when the press has made it a top priority to demagogue, propagandize, and deceive about Trump and the political scene in general, as well as to stir up violent riots and attacks against Trump supporters.

“President-elect.” But many would be shocked to learn that this term is actually legally meaningless

[Scott from the Left Coast]

The demagogues are proving themselves this week...they are the Democrats, the racist bigots of the Left and the Obama/Clinton/Soros brown shirts. Fascist pigs parading around as our “superiors”.
