ALF Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 that won't make Bernie fans happy If Clinton Implodes, Democrats May Turn to Biden and Warren Read more at: http://www.nationalreview.com/article/435966/hillary-clinton-2016-email-scandal-joe-biden-elizabeth-warren-democrats As a Independent that would work for me. Warren is a young version of Bernie just more moderate. Kasich was the best qualified of the candidates that ran, still can't believe Republican voters chose Trump.

Observer Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Yes. Me. This is a myth perpetuated by the Hillary crowd and the media. I went to the caucus and in my district there were over 50 Bernie people and around 20 Hillary people. Most of the Bernie people, if not all, were well over 26. I know loads of Bernie supporters in their 40s and 50s. Hillary has a huge problem. She's got the nomination sewed up but not with anything like the authority she hopes.

ALF Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) How does the Electoral College tip the scales? The Electoral College is the scale You are correct , this is what I meant by tip the scale: Unequal voting power depending on where you live The Electoral College gives disproportionate voting power to states, favoring the smaller states with more electoral votes per person. For instance, each individual vote in Wyoming counts nearly four times as much in the Electoral College as each individual vote in Texas. This is because Wyoming has three (3) electoral votes for a population of 532,668 citizens (as of 2008 Census Bureau estimates) and Texas has thirty-two (32) electoral votes for a population of almost 25 million. By dividing the population by electoral votes, we can see that Wyoming has one "elector" for every 177,556 people and Texas has one "elector" for about every 715,499. The difference between these two states of 537,943 is the largest in the Electoral College. http://www.fairvote.org/problems_with_the_electoral_college 2000 Pres race Florida vote 2,912,790 Bush won all 25 Electoral votes 2,912,253 Gore 0 Electoral votes Edited June 8, 2016 by ALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbillievable Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Without the electoral college, no candidate would ever visit smaller states. It was a problem resolved by the founding fathers. A consistent theme in the constitution is the protection of the minority against the tyranny of the majority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
