There was always a fear that densely populated urban centers would box the rural farmers out.

So the system was set up to prevent that by the Electoral College.
good system. Has been vindicated.
Exactly.

Every time these faggots cry about winning the popular vote but losing the election; that's a feature not a bug.
If you lose the vast majority of states and still win an election, that would be a bug, but the founders saw that coming, and ducked it quite beautifully with the EC feature.

The ridings were set up like that in Canada too.

What we don't have in Canada is White Flight Suburban Liberals fearing the Black Ghetto following them by Affirmative Action out to the boonies and then wrecking the place, so we don't get the same Trump effect.

Every Presidential candidate who has won 30 or more states, has won the Electoral College.

Trump won 30 states in 2016.

Probably not the right thread, but I am watching Hillary's America and it is fucking hilarious. Dinesh is a great troll. I like the re-enactments with gang members and the prison scenes. 5/5. Guy figured out how to make bank off of going to prison. Well done.

The GOP is propped up by suburban liberal fears of the blacks getting a free ride at their expense, then showing up in the suburbs to cause trouble like Mike Brown.

Nothing has actually changed since 1968.

Trump is Nixon.

Whoever the Democrats run is Hubert Humphrey.

Yeah claims of an anti-neoliberal realignment have of course been greatly exaggerated by a certain wishful thinker on this forum.
