  • “The electoral college is necessary!  If the popular vote decided everything then it would always be liberal because urban areas trend liberal!”

    Really?  You don’t say?  The areas with the highest population density tend to swing more liberal?  That’s weird.  It’s almost like being around other people makes people more sympathetic to others, and understanding that different people are still people.

    It’s almost like conservative areas tend to be more isolated and insulated in their ways rather than allowing ideas to mix, since that could contradict their ideals.  How strange that those areas tend to vote one way regardless of sense because it’s as much or more tradition than it does reason.

    Yeah, it really makes sense that the votes of thousands of urban dwellers should count equal to a single rural voter because of no apparent reason.
