What we really need is to do away with the primary system.
[/quote]We should also eliminate the electoral college. It should be one person = one vote. That would be most democratic.

It would be interesting to see what happens if the Tea Party formally secedes from the Republican Party. At first, neither fraction would ever get more than 10-15 seats in the Senate. That would force them to adjust and rethink their strategies.[/quote]I’m a supporter of the Tea Party for that very reason. 😉

Like Al Gore, I would really like to see the electoral college eliminated. It’s an outdated relic from a time when smaller colonies were afraid of being bullied by Virginia and Pennsylvania. As it stands, low population states like Wyoming and Alaska are grossly overrepresented compared to states like California and Texas. The winner takes all electoral system also gives swing states way too much political sway.May 7, 2010 at 5:21 PM #547944poorgradstudent

ParticipantI don’t think the problem is with the electoral college, but with the “winner takes all” rules that most states have.
