    I think that someone who does not accept the COTUS is exactly the person you should have an argument with - probably a very interesting one.

    Wrong on so many levels. The president is everyone's president. One person, one vote. Nothing could be more fair.

    Every state has two senators, whether their population is 500k or 15 million. Every 700,000 (average) people have a House rep. There's your equal representation.

    But there is only one president. One person, one vote. The EC allows for a minority rule, and that's tyranny by any reasonable definition. City dwellers do not deserve disenfranchisement just because a small portion of the people choose to live in rural areas.

    Which 38 of the several sovereign states do you think will ratify an amendment to the treaty that diminishes their political power?

    The same could be said for city dwellers, they chose to live in a city and be indoctrinated into paying for $100,000 dog catchers and $12 bucks for a pack of cigarettes

    Your life .. do want you want

    most already want it changed. the rest will if the republicans can ever win a popular vote again, and then loose the EC. Trump wants the EC abolished as well.

    no, the one where you made up an argument and attributed it to me, then tried to argue against it. That strawman.
