warning about electoral college.....

Are you really that stupid. Where in that quote mentions the SCOTUS you dumb ass. NO WHERE. The SCOTUS ruling was on whether or not a recount of the Florida votes violated the 14th Amendment. It had NOTHING to do with electoral college. I was referring to bullshit like this.

You do it. The libs are not wasting time on it. We know what a high hurdle it would be. We are working on gerrymandering. Ot is amazing how far wrong the righty thinking is about the left.

When are you going to start working on the gerrymandering done to create majority minority districts? Or are those OK with you since those elected in them couldn't get a shoe shine job if they didn't have the built in guarantee?

I neither favor it nor oppose it. It served a purpose that is largely now antiquated. Switching to nation wide popular vote for the general election would have little impact on a race for President. That said it is a system that works most of the time. I would not oppose doing away with it but would not advocate for it.

Again proving you do not understand how gerrymandering works. No surprise. You know nothing.

In the case of the majority minority districts, the gerrymandering was done using race.

If only you had a clue. the repubs were in charge. Read carefully. They carved out districts with whatever shapes it required to get as many minorities in a s few districts as possible, They give up a couple so they can take many more. Yes there are minority districts, But that is part of the plan to Repug as many as possible.

I'm not the one that thinks gerrymandering to appease a bunch of whiny minorities is OK yet thinks gerrymandering because you can win elections is wrong.

It's OK. I realize that those winning in those majority minority districts couldn't get hired working in fast food unless they had that built in guarantee based on race.

Yes you are. There are mathematical programs that would make districts as fair and even as possible. Most colleges have come up with them. There are Democratic states that are trying ti get them used. No Republican states want it. Not interested in fair or equal.

The creation of the majority minority districts didn't use any program. Their creation was of the mindset to cater to a bunch of whining minorities because those creating them knew a minority couldn't win in a fair contest.
