I agree with you that winner-take-all is an anti-republic procedure.

I’m a radical, though. I’d prefer we elected capable, honorable electors who would gather and elect the most capable person to lead our nation.

Presidential beauty pageants aren’t really what the Founders envisioned.

That would be great. But we haven’t had one of those since 1/20/89.
