The point of an Electoral College is to represent the people of a state, not to use our election process as a means of "protesting." He should shut up and do his job like the rest of us.

Robb clearly understands that the real will and interests of the people are not always represented accurately through the capitalistic method of "free" election 
And I agree the system is fundamentally outdated and unfair... the president who gets the most votes over the country should be elected, only true proportional representation is fair.
