"The electoral college keeps us from being a true democracy." The United States of America was never intended to be a "true democracy." Certainly somewhere in your vast education, you were taught that.

Until the current crop of judges took over, the USSC was non partisan. Now with the conservative majority, its become very partisanship. In fact, its one of the many ways conservatives are destroying this country. Yes, you guys will raise hell when Obamacare is uprooted, which will happen this month. Never mind that Obama has appointed two of the most extreme, fanatical justices in the history of the Court, one of which should have recused herself and refused to do so (a lapse of professional ethics that probably hasn't been seen before this court). Never mind that Republicans have consistently given Democrat presidents their choice of justices while Democrats have put Republican appointees through sheer hell -- actually voting against justices on ideological grounds (admittedly) which has heretofore not been done, period. Never mind that this "era of partisanship" arguably began when the Supreme Court stepped in to PREVENT the theft of a presidential election by Democrats in 2000, and without which Gore would most certainly have stolen the election. You are so full of shit you're not worth responding to, but sometimes you just puke up something so ignorant it is impossible not to respond.
