I have no problem with the electoral VOTE system. I think it keeps things a bit more fair across the country. I'd hate to see a system where one day having a 80% vote in a couple of high population states meant you didn't to have win a majority in any other place in the country. Right now the whole country is pretty well split, but things change. I think that the current system is fundamentally sound.
I think the delegate thing is outdated though. This isn't the 1700's anymore and we don't need to send people across the state and country in person to tell them who we voted for. Its an unnecessary middle man that always brings up controversy every election for no point other then to bring up controversy. Also if you wished to bribe someone in a close election, its a weak link.
