That was a factor.
Another is each State is a sovereign country wanting an equal say on who the President is. How do we best allow for that?
Don't get rid of the EC. Clean up winner-take-all, State mandated party-slates corrupting it by preventing electors the ability to vote their conscience.

From my new book: "'If there's ever been a case for preachers to have private airplanes, this is it,' said Alan DiDio, as his personal Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ, side-eyed him suspiciously."
One kid in IL raised his hand proudly last week.
Yes, I ignore the anxiety and marketing.
The rest resonated with what I’m seeing and hearing from people in the tech industry.
I see it in the tools I’m using too.
I think he’s right.
I think this is a time when the tech has outpaced expectations, and I don’t know if people are ready for it.
I might be in the minority when I say that Disney did little to rehabilitate the Star Wars brand after what Lucas did to it, starting in the late 90s. It seems it's just another mediocre sci-fi statement in a land of lusher, more interesting story-telling.
What I so thoroughly enjoy is that a swath of poor white people is willing to live in poverty for the sake of their staunch conservatism so that a modicum of people who look like them, like my family, can live a glorious and easy life for their sake. We pledge not to linger long on their sacrifice.
I think the word you’re looking for, Tim, is “murdered.”
As in, “This should have been the case long before they murdered two Americans.”
Their fascism thrives on the misuse of language.
"Tell me who you hang out with, and I'll tell you who you are."
Elon was part of that crowd too.
We know what trickles down from wealth, and it's not the money.
In the 2000s, I wrote of the implications of a Trinitarian politick, whereby Western governments are on an inevitable coordination and unification into more federal, cohesive spheres, ala the United States of Europe or the United States of North America. E Pluribus Unum, but without the colonialism.

While I love this, my only call out is the Republican party of the 1950s is now the Democratic Party of today.
The "great flippening" happened in the 1970s into the 1980s, thanks to Nixon and the southern strategy.
Historical voting patterns validate this.
"Feeling like a fact." Gotta love the logic.
Cory, he obvious was thinking of how many Europeans could fit into cattle cars and concentration camps in Texas. The math makes sense then.

More representation!
Implement cubed-root-of-population method for determining the number of seats in the House.
And multimember districts with rank-choice, proportional voting.

The state is basically a 5-4 state. Given their current gerrymander to 7-2, not much to celebrate here.
Will we be able to soon take similarly heroic action against war criminals here in the US?
This is fine with me, if and only if Democrats make it clear to those running this operation that the operatives involved will be in El Salvador after Democrats regain the presidency in 2028.

Hey ... Conservatives were voted into power ....
So now their hate and ignorance are showing up E.V.E.R.Ywhere.

Will his lawyer try on the condom in court to prove it couldn't fit?
"God, a perfectly good being, created Satan to tempt you. So, you know ... we got Trump." 🤷
But wouldn't that mean lying about being shocked by such a notion?
The most important implication?
GOP, Conservatives, Republicans, whatnot ... they knew.
That tells you much about their morality.
