OK, I haven't said anything but I'm going to now. The sudden calling out of Armybrat for no fucking reason other than to troll him in this thread needs to stop. If he were in here trolling for Trump a response would be appropriate. What is happening here is petty and uncalled for. Get off his ankle.

Uh, no.  He answered the bell and posted shit.  That's on him.  He doesn't deserve kid gloves.

It's called the President of the United States, not President of the United People.  Democrats either need to come up with a plan to overturn the Electoral College or shut the fuck up.  It's like listening to Republicans rail against the Affordable Care Act.  You can't whine about repealing it until we hear a decent solution to replace it.  The Bayh-Celler attempt during the first Nixon term was as close as we've ever gotten and was fairly well thought out.  So of course that means that most Democrats today completely ignore it, 'cause fuck history and logic.  There have been periods of time since the Civil War where Democrats/large population states had the chance to amend the constitution's mandates on the EC with their holds on Congress and State Houses...but nope, they chose to piss that away to play the whiny victim card over and fucking over again.  And now?  Democrats, despite usually controlling state employees, have managed to let slip most state legislatures away from their control.  So the odds of them getting 2/3rds of State Legs. is slim to none.  And they have nobody to blame but themselves.  For 100 years, they were the benefactor of the EC, but not lately.  It's real fucking simple, get back in the ground game and win over some state legislatures instead of fucking around with trying to sway the Electoral College debate with hand-wringing and crying.  

The Speaker of the House was intended to have greater power, and the President was to be more of a Head of State (in the national sense), whose real power was derived from judicial appointments and vetoing Congressional bills.  Then Andrew Johnson, Wilson, Hoover, FDR, LBJ, Nixon, and the modern era from Carter on through Trump.  All completely fucked that up.  Most every President on that list, and beyond, were horrible Presidents capable of terrible abuses of power and should have tried for treason.  But most were decent people privately.  We managed to score the trifecta...a horribly power-abusing President, who is actually an even worse human being, who will somehow manage to kill more Americans than any foreign army ever did.

The electoral college needs to be tweaked to percentages. For example, if a state has 50 electoral college points and the vote there was 45 percent republican and 46 percent democrat then the republican gets 22.5 points and democrat gets 23 points. Do all the states and add up and higher number wins. That way every vote actually counts.

I appreciate your effort to judge the average person in the party in a generous benefit-of-the-doubt kind of way. 

That said, can we all agree that if any democratically elected leader in the free world tweeted his/her supporter repeatedly screaming “White power!” - that person would be (justly) removed from office by the end of the fucking day?

But here, not only did Republicans not call him out... the entire news machinery moved right along within 36 hours. 

So I’d say the systemic and ongoing empowering of racists is most definitely “racist” in every sense. 

And as a side note, I never ever want to hear a Republican tell me that CNN and the other networks are hysterical and unfair to them.

Good idea.  Still requires an amendment to the constitution.  The only time a good idea to change the constitution came from a liberal college student, and that man was from the University of Texas.  Everything else is bong-rip pipe dreams that aren't grounded in reality.

Like many issues, this one isn't black and white (thanks, I'll be here all week, tip your waitress). 

I'm a white, and I'm tired of the white guilt. I know the whites have treated the non-whites shitty for the past century, and many currently still do. I know it. It's very obvious. I feel bad about it and try to do my part to change that injustice any way I can. That being said, I can't bring myself to watch another movie about an athlete/astronaut/scuba diver overcoming racism. My white guilt meter is burnt out. 

My second point would be many of the whites don't' think they're racist, even if they're pretty racist. Let me explain. 

There are people out there who say some very racist things behind closed doors like black people are not great fathers, or whatever statistic de jeur they could cobble together from I'm right.com statistics website. In their mind growing up, racists wore white hoods and beat up black people for fun. They don't view themselves as racist. They just have different opinions than the liberals about things. They don't see it as racist, just a different opinion.  

Then I know others who don't view themselves racist whatsoever. They've made a n-word joke back in High School, but they're friends with black people, they're not racist, right? the whole 'Black people are more likely to be in prison because they commit more crimes. They don't just lock people up for nothing, idiot. I didn't hit my wife, I didn't sell drugs, I follow the rules.' type of person. 

There a hundred different levels of this type of thinking. From "I'm in the KKK and I burn down buildings" to "they should stop killing each other" to something so vanilla I don't even know if it's bad or not, like "I'm not attracted to black people". 

So even if one side says "I'm not racist, quit calling me racist", it is entirely plausible they could still be very racist but don't even perceive it. And some are legit burnt on some white guilt stuff.

Actually, it doesn't.  States can apportion their electors however they want.  Effectively though, you're right.  Only blue states would agree to that. The popular vote compact has a better chance at occurring than Alabama choosing to divided up its electors.

Edited July 31, 2020 by FondrenRoad

[Guest Lobo]

Ah yes, the 32 states controlled by Republicans will voluntarily abdicate control over how they apportion their College of Electors.  Good luck with that.  

Every Democrat should have to spend a semester studying the Bayh-Celler Amendment.  It's the closest we've come and provides a very solid framework, even in today's political climate.  Every other suggestion I've never heard is beyond fucking stupid.  

And good lord, y'all thought gerrymandering Red States was bad now?  What the fuck do you think is gonna happen if you attempt to start breaking up congressional districts by Electoral College votes?  Holy shit.  Have you guys even thought this through past the bong-rip stage?

In the case of Obama, there was a significant portion of the population that got suckered into hating Obama because they got conned by Fox News, who grew to prominence during that time period with a brand of media unlike anything that had ever been put on TV before. It’s been over ten years and people are still get conned by it. It wasn’t racism for some of those people. It was just pure stupidity on their part in believing Fox News general bullshit.

If people don't want to be called racist, they shouldn't choose to associate with known racists and then stay silent when the elected representatives they voted for act in a racist manner.  I'd have some sympathy if Army Brat ever said a word about, oh, say, "shithole countries," trump promoting segregation, trump telling congresspeople of color to "go back where they came from," killing DACA, imprisoning brown children, the Muslim ban, not providing adequate aid after Maria, "good people on both sides" in Charlottesville, and so on.  

If you're going to support a political party and a president who does racist shit, and, at best, stay silent for it all, after years criticizing a black president, then you can certainly be judged for racism.

Article 2/Section 1 sets the original way.  Then 12th amendment comes along and changes that.  States can obviously change the way they apportion EC voters (as we've seen in Maine and Nebraska).  Democrats seem to want to either upend the entire EC process and go straight popular vote (which would likely require an amendment).  Or they want some states to seat EC voters in a certain way (that would likely NOT require an amendment).  Either way, there are not close to enough State Legislatures to get either one done effectively.  It's a fool's errand and I still go back to the Bayh-Celler amendment as a framework instead of this idiotic pipe dream.

I wouldn't take much stock in how social media appears.  This board is built on Texas football fanship.  At least it was 10 years ago back when Texas used to field college level football teams.  It skews heavily toward male and white demographics.  The city-data forum for NYC is practically Texags.  The Facebook groups for my neighborhood in NYC may actually be worse than Texags and my neighborhood votes almost 90% Dem.
