That is not how amendments get passed. They require a 2/3rd majority in the house and the same in the Senate. Then 3/4rs of the states have to ratify it. Is that what you think the Republicans can do? As usual, you don't know what you are talking about.

It doesn't matter, since the past isn't the same as the present. A whole lot of things have changed, and I still can't believe you started out with Lincoln. I also can't believe you're posting a blog for reference.

It looks like you are in some heavy denial. Wow, so much great information presented and you just dismiss it all because you can't handle the truth.

Or it was the wisdom of the founders in establishing the electoral college and keeping us from having mob rule and a felonious, duplicitous, vicious, narcissistic, old hag as president.

Actually, the electoral college was established to give an "equal" footing in gov't for states that had a low "white" population. Look it up.

Wrong. It was based on a combination of the framers figuring the average joe at the time would not be well educated or informed about the choices and to give smaller states with low populations more say in the selection of the President.

The concept only peripherally involved slavery in that slaves would be counted into the population for purposes of how many electors a state would get. Outside of that, it was about evening out low population state's and high population state's influence on the federal government, something a straight popular vote would eradicate.

And as usual, you leave out/marginalize what you don't like. Fortunately, true researchers don't:

Considering options for electing the president, James Madison, now known as the “Father of the Constitution” and a slave-owner in Virginia, said the “right of suffrage was much more diffusive in the Northern than the Southern States; and the latter could have no influence in the election on the score of Negroes.”

With that, Madison had proposed the prototype for the same Electoral College system the country uses today: instead of a direct vote, each state was to choose electors, roughly based off their population, but weighted by slaves. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation...ege-and-why-efforts-to-change-it-have-stalled

As I clearly stated, that was one reason, but hardly the only one.

Bull crap
 
DUH!

I can remember back when Republicans were good people- Before Newt Gingrich, the NRA, Fox News, and the Koch brothers corrupted you people and turned you into political criminals, monsters, haters, and radicals!

Now Donald Trump has turned you MOTHER FUCKERS into Zombies- You're already dead - you just haven't realized it yet!
