If we picked the president based on popular vote, then Americwot would always have a democratic president because there are more democrats than republicans based on voter data for 53 years, perhaps even more! This is why popular votes aren't ethical. The fact is, the president is the president of ALL of the states and not just ONE, which is why Ameri-blam!-s have an electoral college. This way Americats get the president that the majority of STATES want rather than just a majority of PEOPLE. If the president was only going to be the president of 16 states, then sure, lets go by the majority of popular votes, but there are more than 16 states and the people living in those other states wanted a republican president, so that is what Amerirats are getting.

This is asinine thinking. It's not the American people's fault if Republicans don't appeal to more people. You don't rig the system so a party gets more say. Maybe the Republicans should make their Platform more appealing instead of trying to fix the system.
-
How is it fixed? The rules of the game have always been who wins the most states not people.
-
Jaxelo was saying the system should work in a way that represents both parties equally. I was disagreeing.
-
And i dont know how you can, admittedly i disagree with you frequently but you useally make a resonable case. Without the Electoral College elections would be decided by like 3 states.
-
Look in the comments of the OP, I already disproved that to.
-
I don't see where you disproved that...
-
More people view themselves as independents than either D or R Nice education there bub
-
I'm aware, which is why I said the party should focus on trying to actually appeal to more people. Nice reading there bud.
-
Independents broke for republicans significantly more than for democrats which means they did exactly that Nice education there bub
-
This election. My point is talking in general, just like jaxelo is talking. Nice reading there bud.
-
Nearly every year Independents lean republican and you dont understand Jax's post at all Nice education bub
-
Learn to read.

Sweet -blam!-ing tap dancing Christ. I'm addressing his line of thinking. I know it hard for you to grasp context, and really anything that doesn't fit into your bubble, but please try.

Edited by Britton: 11/23/2016 8:58:24 PMMaybe you should cite your own claims on independent voters yourself. And you're really going to tell who and what I was addressing? You're an idiot.

-
I don't need to know someone on a personal level to read what the -blam!- they wrote.
-
Jax is mocking you and your line of thinking in her post. She exclusively posts satire which you should know since she has been posting here longer than you have been here
-
I really give no shits. Just because something is asinine doesn't mean it's automatically assumed to be satire. Asinine is asinine.
-
Did you just learn the word asinine because it doesnt make you cool to use that word lol Your claims are false, you have no proof and you're being mocked It almost like when I completely debunked your claim that Bernie's system would save us money and then you started calling everyone a racist Nаzi in the group lol
-
I didn't make a claim. You didn't prove anything, you showed sources that disagreed. I'm glad you still enjoy your circle jerk.

In response to, jaxelos logic.
