>>>For one who purports to be concerned with minority rights, you express little understanding or appreciation of the mechanisms for protecting them.<< minority rights are well protected in this country...including the voting minority...so, excuse me if I do not seem appreciative of ALL the mechanisms for such protections... >>>Your equating slavery and women's suffrage to the Electoral College are extreme, to say the least. <<< absolutely not...to create a more perfect union the founding fathers ran into some very real problems...in the time between the declaration of independence and the drafting of the constitution the states were not exactly rushing to form a union AT ALL...and dis-union could very well have been the outcome after the war...compromises across the board were the order of the day. This not only included the electoral college but slavery as well. The more enlightened founding fathers knew the more perfect union would come in time...but to get it started at all they had to throw in the "bad" to achieve the greater good...that of the "union" itself.
