If this were a perfect country, there wouldn't BE an electoral college. The electoral college is a throwback to the days when people had no idea what the candidates were about, and information took months to spread. Each state would vote who they wanted their electoral votes to go to, and then the electoral college would actually decide the President. A popular vote means nothing in this country, and I think it's one of the greatest flaws of our country.
We live in an age when a message can go around the world in seconds, and the words of an individual can reach nearly anyone on the planet. Isn't it time our country updated our voting system to reflect that?
