If you wanna dump the Electoral College? VOTE!
There are candidates a plenty who would support that. Find them, bend their ear and get on the case!
And while were at it....PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GALACTUS LETS DUMP CITIZENS UNITED! You wanna see REAL change in America!? Make campaign contributions from corporations to candidates illegal. And limit personal contributions to $1200. And outlaw lobbyists altogether. Many Democratic candidates are not taking contributions from PACs and big corporations (Thanks, Bernie!) and if a candidate really has the ear of the people....they will support that candidate with their dollars.
We need politicians beholden to individual VOTERS, not billionaires and corporations who's money counts as "free speech"!
Almost EVERYTHING wrong with our country today can be solved by tons of well meaning people getting together and exercising the right to vote and voting with the best interests not just THEMSELVES but of OTHERS!
It will take time...and some hateful ass old fucks might have to die off while we wait...but hard work is required for big jobs.
As long as the majority of Americans believe that their fellow citizens, regardless of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, etc should have equal protection and opportunity under the law and consciously votes ACCORDINGLY...we can make it for another 250+ years.
Provided we can get a handle on climate change....
