U.S. Electoral College

I'm done with it... have been for quite some time. Depending on what state you live in your vote means nothing.

We (the country) should have a President elected by the people, not politicians.

How about a President that is a politician and not a reality tv star🤔

@AbsolutelyFabulous I am jaded but I think any person that believes the should be elected is a narcissist

@Pretzel That's why I hate the title 'Leaders' and prefer 'Public Servants'. Simply calling politicians servants instead of bosses would change a lot of dynamics regarding who decides to run and the mindset they would have in doing so. It would also impact what people would be willing to let them get away with. Like it or not, language has a huge impact on perception.

@AbsolutelyFabulous I'd rather have a billionaire businessman that can't be bought running the country than a politician that can be bought by every sycophant lobbyist and special interest group in the world...

@AbsolutelyFabulous And politicians have done so well? We need TERM LIMITS!

@fanuc2013 I worry term limits would only make representatives more beholden to moneyed interests because they couldn't campaign on reputation and record.
