They manipulated this presidency, from the debates on through this election. No matter how you look at it. Even the Debate Commission was an absolute disgrace and every American who didn't speak up on this should hide their heads in shame. This can not be allowed to be decided based on the highly manipulated, emotional state majority of people are feeling right now. We need to find out exactly why this method of determining the presidency was considered important enough for the founding fathers to include it in the Constitution.
Many questions are unanswered.
Give them the benefit of the doubt until we understand all the possible implications of this issue. The intention of the Electoral College is to protect the rights of each State, not allowing the huge population centers from just a few States to be able to dominate national elections. If you scrap the Electoral College, you give people who live in the biggest cities like New York, Los Angeles Philedelphia, etc., the most representation, leaving smaller, more rural states without much representation in the selection of a President. People, please think of this before you consider changing the Constitution. Email everyone you can with this.
