>>But I don't think its such a grievous problem that it deserves an enormous push for change.<< Hi Tim, your point is well taken, but I think it deserves an "enormous push". Even though I don't believe "democracy" is the best political system in the world, but that's what we have and claims it is the best system in the world. And we are pushing other countries to follow our way. Then Electoral College system definitely does NOT represent "democracy" or democratic way of doing business. When we are not doing it, why do we push others to follow us? By the way did we set up EC in Afghanistan and Iraq yet?
