IMO, I wouldn't mind changing things so that the president is elected via national popular vote, but only IF the nation as a whole respected our system of checks and balances. Unfortunately, the same people who want the president elected via popular vote also believe that the president should be an all-powerful leader who can do whatever the F he wants, because you know, he or she was elected by "the people." I'm on the opposite side here. States are losing more and more power and the country is devolving into a single federal entity. The federal government was intended to ONLY provide for a common defense, ensure interstate commerce and deal with other countries. Pretty much everything else was meant to be left to the individual states. A great example of overreach is the proposed police reform regulations. Why in the hell should the federal government get involved in local policing? Why are they involved in education? There are literally thousands of examples of federal incursion. Let's repeal the 17th amendment and give the states more oversight over the behemoth.
