So many people on the left want us to go to popular v**e for electing our presidents but obviously they think there can always be more popular v**es for their people and they know, from experience that the E*******l College has always worked pretty well. It is much harder to v**e the way they want with the College than if you use popular v**es. The 2000 e******n was the last one that was really opposed because of the Florida v**e, but many newspapers and magazines sent people to recount and recount and they sure found out that Bush had the most v**es. What better people than the media could have done that recounting, leaners?

So far so good, unlike the criminals you support!

Trump, October 12, 2016 in Sean Hannity interview
“I would rather have a popular v**e. “

Trump, November 13, 2016, on “60 Minutes”
“ I would rather see it, where you went with simple v**es. You know, you get 100 million v**es, and somebody else gets 90 million v**es, and you win. There’s a reason for doing this. Because it brings all the states into play.”

In 2012, the night Romney lost, Trump tweeted.
"The phoney e*******l college made a laughing stock out of our nation. . . . The e*******l college is a disaster for a democracy."

In 1969, The U.S. House of Representatives v**ed for a national popular v**e by a 338–70 margin.

Recent and past p**********l candidates who supported direct e******n of the President in the form of a constitutional amendment, before the National Popular V**e bill was introduced: George H.W. Bush (R-TX-1969), Bob Dole (R-KS-1969), Gerald Ford (R-MI-1969), Richard Nixon (R-CA-1969),

Recent and past p**********l candidates with a public record of support, before November 2016, for the National Popular V**e bill that would guarantee the majority of E*******l College v**es and the presidency to the candidate with the most national popular v**es: Bob Barr (Libertarian- GA), U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R–GA), Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO), and Senator Fred Thompson (R–TN),

Newt Gingrich summarized his support for the National Popular V**e bill by saying: “No one should become president of the United States without speaking to the needs and hopes of Americans in all 50 states. … America would be better served with a p**********l e******n process that treated citizens across the country equally. The National Popular V**e bill accomplishes this in a manner consistent with the Constitution and with our fundamental democratic principles.”

I would say about as well as Clinton and Obama did for you. I was happy to see Bush stand up to the Muslims and sure as hell not happy to see Obama backing down from them and importing as many of them as he could.

I have always (from 1950 to now) been against the change to popular e******n of the President and I think you could see why at the last e******n. How many i*****l a***ns was it that v**ed in that one?

Bad Bob Loc: Virginia

What criminals?

Bad Bob Loc: Virginia

I don't know how many v**ed for tRump, do you?

oldroy Loc: Western Kansas (No longer in hiding)

How many times have I had to read this post by you and on how many threads? I am getting tired of it and know that none of those people thought National Popular V**e would be the way.

You like these words but they are purely senseless. The e*******l college is a disaster for a democracy." Senseless because they have nothing to do with a democracy. The Founders didn't want to take a chance on "mob rule" and that is just what we would have now if those i*****l a***n v**es could have determined the winner in 2016. Also, the Founders knew that in their day of so slow t***sportation and nearly no media that rule would have taken place.

So you can know, these words you like so well are purely words of stupidity. Only liberals and other stupid people could think that these words are anything more than a method of keeping E*******l College as an institution and switching to popular v**e. Recent and past p**********l candidates with a public record of support, before November 2016, for the National Popular V**e bill that would guarantee the majority of E*******l College v**es and the presidency to the candidate with the most national popular v**es Read those words, for once, and then explain how they aren't purely what I just said.

I would say that about 80% for Hillary would be pretty close and the others for anybody but Trump.

Your documented verifiable proof of any, "i*****l a***n v**es?"

Now, the E*******l College would not prevent a candidate winning in states with 270 e*******l v**es from being elected President of the United States

Now 48 states have winner-take-all state laws for awarding e*******l v**es.
2 award one e*******l v**e to the winner of each congressional district, and two e*******l v**es statewide.
Neither method is mentioned in the U.S. Constitution.

The e*****rs are and will be dedicated party activist supporters of the winning party’s candidate who meet briefly in mid-December to cast their totally predictable rubberstamped v**es in accordance with their pre-announced pledges.

The current system does not provide some kind of check on the "mobs."

National Popular V**e is a nonpartisan coalition of legislators, scholars, constitutionalists and grassroots volunteers committed to preserving the E*******l College, while guaranteeing the presidency to the candidate who earns the most v**es among all fifty states.

The bill would take effect when enacted by states with a majority of the e*******l v**es—270 of 538.
All of the p**********l e*****rs from the enacting states will be supporters of the p**********l candidate receiving the most popular v**es among all 50 states (and DC)—thereby guaranteeing that candidate with an E*******l College majority.

Newt Gingrich summarized his support for the National Popular V**e bill by saying: “No one should become president of the United States without speaking to the needs and hopes of Americans in all 50 states. … America would be better served with a p**********l e******n process that treated citizens across the country equally. The National Popular V**e bill accomplishes this in a manner consistent with the Constitution and with our fundamental democratic principles.”

The bill was approved in 2016 by a unanimous bipartisan House committee v**e in both Georgia (16 e*******l v**es) and Missouri (10).

In 2016 the Arizona House of Representatives passed the bill 40-16-4.
Two-thirds of the Republicans and two-thirds of the Democrats in the Arizona House of Representatives sponsored the bill.
In January 2016, two-thirds of the Arizona Senate sponsored the bill.

In 2014, the Oklahoma Senate passed the bill by a 28–18 margin.

On March 25, 2014 in the New York Senate, Republicans supported the bill 27-2; Republicans endorsed by the Conservative Party by 26-2; The Conservative Party of New York endorsed the bill.
In the New York Assembly, Republicans supported the bill 21–18; Republicans endorsed by the Conservative party supported the bill 18–16.

The National Advisory Board of National Popular V**e includes former Congressmen John Anderson (R–Illinois and later independent p**********l candidate), John Buchanan (R–Alabama), Tom Campbell (R–California),and former Senators David Durenberger (R–Minnesota), and Jake Garn (R–Utah).

Supporters of the National Popular V**e bill include former Senator Fred Thompson (R–TN), Governor Jim Edgar (R–IL), Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO), and former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R–GA)

Saul Anuzis, former Chairman of the Michigan Republican Party for five years and a former candidate for chairman of the Republican National Committee, supports the National Popular V**e plan as the fairest way to make sure every v**e matters, and also as a way to help Conservative Republican candidates. This is not a partisan issue and the National Popular V**e plan would not help either party over the other.

The Nebraska GOP State Chairman, Mark Fahleson.

Michael Long, chairman of the Conservative Party of New York State

Rich Bolen, a Constitutional scholar, attorney at law, and Republican Party Chairman for Lexington County, South Carolina, wrote:"A Conservative Case for National Popular V**e: Why I support a state-based plan to reform the E*******l College."

Ray Haynes who served as the National Chairman of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) in 2000. He served in the California State Senate from 1994 to 2002 and was elected to the Assembly in 1992 and 2002

old roy kohler gotcha.

I believe he has done just that if you are a left leaner. You are one of those, aren't you?

Quite a bit of that crap is just that, crap.

Is there a chance that what this video shows proves what kind of people v**ed for Obama in large numbers in 2008? I think there surely is and what kohler and you want isn't much different.
