GET REAL PEOPLE: The Electoral College will NEVER be Eliminated in our Lifetimes!

The founders went with the ELECTORAL COLLEGE for Presidential elections and it was brilliant. Not only should we not overturn the Electoral College, but it will never be rescinded by an amendment to the constitution. If you didn't know that, you don't understand the electoral college and the constitutional amendment process.

From the article:

"Think of the Electoral College like the World Series. One person-one vote equates to the World Series Champions being determined by total number of runs scored. If the Dodgers win the first game 10-0, and the Yankees win the next four games 1-0, the Dodgers win the series. Even though the Yankees bested the Dodgers in four games, it doesn’t matter because the Dodgers scored 10 runs to their 4. One anomalous game decides the whole series. Without the Electoral College, a few heavily populated states decide the whole election."
