#FRIPPTOPIA #americanpolitics #POLITICSlive #OPINIONLIVE #Democrats #electoralcollege "Democratic(sic) Sen. Brian #Schatz introduced a constitutional amendment Tuesday to abolish the Electoral College and "restore democracy" by allowing for the president and vice president to be elected directly through the popular vote." *from the article* FIRST... ...it's DEMOCRAT Senator Brian Schatz... ...it's called the DEMOCRAT PARTY. 'Democratic' is a different thing altogether. You'd THINK that the so-called PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISTS at #cnn would know that. SECOND, @senbrianschatz , and the fact that I have to point this out to an ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE speaks VOLUMES, the United States ISN'T A DEMOCRACY. We are a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. A DEMOCRACY is EXACTLY what the Founders WANTED TO AVOID... ...BECAUSE of PEOPLE LIKE YOU. There IS NO MOB RULE in America, and ABOLISHING the ELECTORAL COLLEGE is ANTITHETICAL to the type of government we were founded to become.
