The best solution is to adopt the system used by Nebraska and Maine. The winner of the statewide popular vote receives the two electoral votes represented by the senators, the other electoral votes go to the winner of each congressional district. This way a few states with large numbers of electoral votes will not force their will on the rest of the country. Currently, if someone wins the 'right' eleven states, they can become president even if they lose the other 39 states by a large margin. This approach would force candidates to actually campaign nationwide. Look up the statistics of past elections to see how the electoral college votes would more accurately represent the will of the governed.
