WHAT PROGRESSIVES AND THE MEDIA HAVE FAILED TO TELL MILLENNIALS ABOUT AMERICA'S CONSTITUTION, IT WORKS!
I thought I could get away for a weekend, but I overlooked the fact that I was staying in a hotel at night, and my daughter and her husband’s cabin during the day where there is no internet or WIFI……! I caught this progressive, Richard Goodstein, try to talk over every rational conservative point of view while watching judge Jeanine on a late-night replay, and then again on O’ Reilly last night where the topic they were pushing was how the electoral college should be scrapped because Hillary won the popular vote by 1.5 Million! If you don’t know this already It’s happened 5 times before, and probably will happen again! They also were bitching about the free $2 Billion dollars’ worth of free advertising Trump received, and to both those arguments I say what about the 13 Million illegal immigrants and refugees that Obama, right before the election, told them to go vote with no repercussions, and when it comes to the free advertising, Hillary didn’t speak to
When it comes to the demonstrations and protests going on in
our countries post-election Trump victory we have found out how deeply the
Alinskyites of Obama, and Hillary if she had won, has contaminated the ‘Will’
of the left wing progressive faction of America and their overall plan to
transform America from within to Socialism! I think Stalin described his
converts accurately when he used the term "Useful Idiots," and how
they have destroyed every nation in which they have seized power and control.
It is presently happening at an alarming rate in the U.S.
Can you possibly imagine the consequences of a Hillary
victory and how the world map would appear ideologically wise? The ‘Silent
Majority’ came out of the woodwork to make sure that what has made America
great for the past 240 years will continue for the next 240 years!
REPORT: THREE MILLION VOTES IN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION CAST BY
ILLEGAL ALIENS!
TRUMP MAY HAVE WON POPULAR VOTE!
Three million votes in the U.S. presidential election were
cast by illegal aliens, per Greg Phillips of the VoteFraud.org organization.
If true, this would mean that Donald Trump still won the
contest despite widespread vote fraud and almost certainly won the popular
vote.
“We have verified more than three million votes cast by
non-citizens,” tweeted Phillips after reporting that the group had completed an
analysis of a database of 180 million voter
registrations.
Per current indications, Hillary Clinton won the popular
vote by around 630,000 votes, although around 7 million ballots remain
uncounted.
Virtually all the votes cast by 3 million illegal immigrants
are likely to have been for Hillary Clinton, meaning Trump might have won the
popular vote when this number is considered.
Vote fraud using ballots cast in the name of dead people and
illegal alien voters was a huge concern before the election.
On the morning of the election there were 4 million dead
people on U.S. voter registration rolls.
Although some states require some form of ID before voting,
California, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota,
Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Vermont, West Virginia, Wyoming, and Washington, D.C. all require
no identification before voting.
The Electoral College was created for two reasons. The first
purpose was to create a buffer between population and the selection of a
President. The second as part of the structure of the government that gave
extra power to the smaller states.
The first reason that the founders created the Electoral
College is hard to understand today. The founding fathers were afraid of direct
election to the Presidency. They feared a tyrant could manipulate public
opinion and come to power.
Hamilton and the other founders believed that the electors
would be able to ensure that only a qualified person becomes President. They
believed that with the Electoral College no one would be able to manipulate the
citizenry. It would act as check on an electorate that might be duped. Hamilton
and the other founders did not trust the population to make the right choice.
The founders also believed that the Electoral College had the advantage of
being a group that met only once and thus could not be manipulated over time by
foreign governments or others.
The electoral college is also part of compromises made at
the convention to satisfy the small states. Under the system of the Electoral
College each state had the same number of electoral
votes as they have
representative in Congress, thus no state could have less than 3. The result of
this system is that in this election the state of Wyoming cast about 210,000
votes, and thus each elector represented 70,000 votes, while in California
approximately 9,700,000 votes were cast for 54 votes, thus representing 179,000
votes per electorate. Obviously, this creates an unfair advantage to voters in
the small states whose votes count more than those people living in medium and
large states.
One aspect of the electoral system that is not mandated in
the constitution is the fact that the winner takes all the votes in the state.
Therefore, it makes no difference if you win a state by 50.1% or by 80% of the
vote you receive the same number of electoral votes. This can be a recipe for
one individual to win some states by large pluralities and lose others by small
number of votes, and thus this is an easy scenario for one candidate winning
the popular vote while another winning the electoral vote. This winner take all
methods used in picking electors has been decided by the states themselves.
This trend took place over the course of the 19th century.
While there are clear problems with the Electoral College
and there are some advantages to it, changing it is very unlikely. It would
take a constitutional amendment ratified by 3/4 of states to change the system.
It is hard to imagine the smaller states agreeing. One way of modifying the
system s to eliminate the winner take all part of it. The method that the
states vote for the electoral college is not mandated by the constitution but
is decided by the states. Two states do not use the winner take all system,
Maine and Nebraska. It would be difficult but not impossible to get other
states to change their systems, unfortunately the party that has the advantage
in the state is unlikely to agree to a unilateral change. ~~
It would be just easier for liberal to be honest with the
rest of us, especially themselves: you’re just mad that Donald J. Trump—excuse
me—President-elect Donald J. Trump won the election. So, you dig around in our
darkest corners to justify getting rid of something that you think prevented
Clinton from winning. Keep in mind, that Stern acknowledged that we have an
amendments process to change the Constitution if enough Americans demand it,
which gave women the right to vote. And it abolished slavery after a bloody
civil war. Legislatures, jurists, and elected lawmakers did change with the
times, removing or striking down racist laws and were better for it. Yet, the
Electoral College dilutes minority voters? Where? They happen to live in the
areas where elections are decided: the cities. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh have
decided statewide elections in Pennsylvania, which is the cornerstone of the
Democrats’ blue wall in presidential contests. Clinton couldn’t get people
excited. The same was true of Wayne County in Michigan,
where Clinton got some
80,000 votes less in the Detroit area than Obama in 2012. That certainly
could’ve erased Trump’s 13,000+-vote lead there to win the state. This brings
us back to why this whole debate is stupid. Democrats, you lost to Donald J.
Trump. You lost! He was certainly one of the most flawed and vulnerable
candidates the Republicans have ever nominated in the modern era, maybe ever,
and you couldn’t beat him because Clinton was that much worse. He attracted
white working class voters that Romney couldn’t reach, he got millions of Obama
supporters to flip their support, he was viewed as outside of the system,
whereas Clinton’s 20+-year public service career in Washington, coupled with
her six-figure paid speaking engagements fell flat when she tried to cast
herself as a working-class hero. She was terrible—and she wasn’t the most
qualified to run for the presidency. That’s one of the most outrageous remarks
to ever be uttered in this campaign.
In the end, Democrats lost because they didn’t gauge the
number of white working class voters, they didn’t know they were the lynchpin
of the Obama coalition, she didn’t energize the base, and they ran a campaign
that didn’t care about most the electorate. The advantages Trump had with white
working class voters would erase Democrats’ gains with college-educated whites
and Hispanic voters. Hey, that’s what happens when you’re winning over a large
segment of a voter bloc that comprises 70 percent of the overall electorate.
Folks, Clinton’s team thought that going to Norte Dame for St. Patrick’s Day
was worth it because white Catholics weren’t worth it. Trump won Catholics. He
won the working class. Maybe if Democrats didn’t nominate a sucky candidate
under FBI investigation, who cared about everyone, not just the uber-liberal
segments of the country, she might have won. She didn’t. It wasn’t because of
the Electoral College. In fact, where she ran up the popular vote margin is
California, which is reliably liberal and whose 55 electoral votes were going
for her anyway. California is in no way, shape, or form representative of this
country. It’s a cesspool for progressives.
The face of American liberalism just got a pitchfork to its
face and they must deal. It could be a long, brutal road to recovery as
the
Democratic Party apparatus from the federal to the state and local level have
atrophied. Obama might have won twice, but his legacy only ended with the
destruction of the Democratic Party.
The Left is using history to make a case for the end of the
Electoral College because they want to call the country racist and sexist,
which is their pastime, and to reaffirm their how they think elections should
be decided: by voters who live in the progressive West Coast and the liberal
northeast. That’s it. It’s another thinly veiled swipe at most the country that
isn’t college-educated and doesn’t speak with learned diction. Screw those
flu-over states. They don’t live where things matter. We’re liberal, we’re
better, and so we should decide who is president. That’s the mindset. Does
anyone here think that 12-16 states, all blue states, should decide the
election? Why is it that the voters of the I-95 corridor matter more than those
in Ohio? Yes, New York is a reliably Democratic state, but the Electoral
College forces candidates to campaign in states where they wouldn’t need to if
it were solely by popular vote. Elections where only the most liberal states,
who also happen to be some of the most populous, decide who is president can
only lead to fracture. Over time, the other America that exists beyond the
urban bases of liberal snobbery will split,
which is normal. Alas, don’t dwell
too much into these matters. Electoral College isn’t going anywhere. It takes a
constitutional amendment and Republicans control 69/99 state legislatures. It’s
dead in the water. So, liberals should stop whining and accept Donald J. Trump
as their president. Sorry kids, you lost. Time to grow up. For Democrats, if
you want to listen to Michael Dukakis on the Electoral College, have at it.
Dukakis, the total loser who got clobbered by Bush 41 in ’88, said that
Democrats should focus on abolishing the Electoral College. If the Left wants
to climb into that tank, go right ahead. We’ll be laughing at the clown show
y’all put on for the rest of us to see. ~~ By Matt Vespa, a Friend of America!
WE ARE A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC FORM OF DEMOCRACY AND NOT
JUST A DEMOCRACY, AND THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE?
A Democracy versus a Republic. This double meaning of
Democracy--a popular-type government in general, as well as a specific form of
popular government--needs to be made clear in any discussion, or writing,
regarding this subject, for the sake of sound understanding.
These two forms of government: Democracy and Republic, are
not only dissimilar but antithetical,
reflecting the sharp contrast between (a)
The Majority Unlimited, in a Democracy, lacking any legal safeguard of the
rights of The Individual and The Minority, and (b) The Majority Limited, in a
Republic under a written Constitution safeguarding the rights of The Individual
and The Minority; as we shall now see.
A Democracy!
The chief characteristic and distinguishing feature of a
Democracy is: Rule by Omnipotent Majority. In a Democracy, The Individual, and
any group of Individuals composing any Minority, have no protection against the
unlimited power of The Majority. It is a case of Majority-over-Man.
Democracy, as a form of government, is utterly repugnant
to--is the very antithesis of--the traditional American system: that of a
Republic, and its underlying philosophy, as expressed in essence in the
Declaration of Independence with primary emphasis upon the people’s forming
their government so as to permit them to possess only "just powers"
(limited powers) in order to make and keep secure the God-given, unalienable
rights of each and every Individual and therefore of all groups of Individuals.
A Republic!
A Republic, on the other hand, has a very different purpose
and an entirely different form, or system, of government. Its purpose is to
control The Majority strictly, as well as all others among the people,
primarily to protect The Individual’s God-given, unalienable rights and
therefore for the protection of the rights of The Minority, of all minorities,
and the liberties of people in general. The definition of a Republic is: a
constitutionally limited government of the
representative type, created by a
written Constitution--adopted by the people and changeable (from its original
meaning) by them only by its amendment--with its powers divided between three
separate Branches: Executive, Legislative and Judicial. Here the term "the
people" means, of course, the electorate.
This system of Constitution-making, for establishing
constitutionally limited government, is designed to put into practice the
principle of the Declaration of Independence: that the people form their
governments and grant to them only "just powers," limited powers, in
order primarily to secure (to make and keep secure) their God-given,
unalienable rights. The American philosophy and system of government thus bar equally
the "snob-rule" of a governing Elite and the "mob-rule" of
an Omnipotent Majority. This is designed, above all else, to preclude the
existence in America of any governmental power capable of being misused to
violate the individual’s rights--to endanger the people’s liberties.
