McCain is rolling in his grave rn.
Remember this shit? Can we get back to this please? -
What autocratic moves to rig elections? The ability to vote for a candidate that opposes open borders?
-
Dems love Republican's that lose with class and that they didn't vote for post of the day (I didn't vote for him either).
-
Seems like quite the indictment of the parliamentary system where a simple super majority i.e. democracy, can amend the Constitution.
Which side wants to remove the electoral college and dreams of pure proportional representation like the house instead of also having a senate?
Anyway, glad we live in a republic and one more argument against consolidation of federal power...
-
I didn't either, but I'd vote for 2008 McCain over 2024 Biden right now, no questions asked. Quite possibly 2012 Romney, although Mormonism kinda turns me off, besides the whole unsullied virgin thing. Provo is Boner Jamz 5000 every time.

When California has the same weight as Wyoming, something ain't right. I ain't gonna fight this topic, but c'mon now. California has 67x more people than Wyoming. It's silly, too silly.
-
Are you advocating for a democracy? Rule by simple majority would be a disaster
-
Can't make this shit up, throwing out warnings about Orban and autocracy while wishing to move to direct proportional representation.
Never seem to consider what happens if the right wins the popular vote in such a system.

It limits the power of the federal government which is the whole point of our Constitution. If Cal wants to do something stupid, let them and they are. If the people of Wyoming don't want grade school drag queen hour and sexual mutilation of minors, let them. Using California in 2024 and their associated dem politicians as some shining example of the power of the Cali people, I'll pass and leave that lift to Ern. He should study some Greek history and how great pure democracy worked out.
PS Cali doesn't have the same weight in the House or in the electoral college as Wyoming. Hope that helps.

Nah, I'm on your side when it comes to the Senate. Electoral votes though, ehhhh. Cali has 54 and Wyoming has 3. That's not 67x. A Wyoming citizen's vote is worth more than any other state's citizen's votes in this system, by far. Minority rule is not a great thing either. For the House, Cali has 52, Wyoming has 1. That's closer to reason, but it ain't 67x.
