"You desire an empire - ruled from DC. A central authority that rules with an iron fist.
That is not what we are, and you lack to power to pervert us into such a system."
Why do you jump to this rather than the unfairness of the electoral college system?
Why do you advocate the overthrow of the United States Constitution and the establishment of a centralized dictatorship?
The electoral college is the most fair system imaginable for the 50 United States. But that's the issue - you seek to end the United States and construct the DC Empire in its stead - where all are ruled across the land by the Crown in Washington.
You have the desire, but you don't have the power.
