also,
I am from a country, where for all the mess that it is in, the true leader and party that runs the country is elected by a legitimate democratic majority. Here is America, the electoral college nonsense makes a complete mockery of that. what is the point of a Popular vote when the elections are in large part determined by states like Ohio, Wisconsin and Florida?
I think its time for a review of this flawed system.
Factor in again that in reality, BIG money has become so significant in election nowadays that politics at the highest level makes a complete mockery of the democratic process, regardless of how strong a leader you may be, or how sound and beneficial your policies are to the nation, you will only go so far as your pandering to big companies and rich people who will support you enough to buy the ads and campaign enough to go the whole mile........
