I find this a highly unlikely probability of becoming law, but just the idea of piss-ant politicians wanting to destroy what the Founding Fathers put in place to provide for fair representation throught out the country, is just sickening beyond compare.

I agree that its unlikely. Consitutional Amendments require 80% of the states to agree to them. There aren't too many small states that are going to 'shoot themselves in the foot' by agreeing to such a change.

I think, if I read the article correctly, that he's proposing a change for Florida only which is, of course, the only thing that could be changed without a (Federal) Constitutional amendment.

The Constitution does allow each state to establish how they will be represented in the college.

For instance Maine and Nebraska are different from the others in that they don't do a winner take all but instead use the "District Model" of allocation of delegates based on district by district votes.

Then on the other hand perhaps he's a complete idiot.

Nope, in rereading I’m wrong and you’re right, he’s a complete idiot.

You fail to factor in the stupidity of the American people. Factor that in and it has a good chance to pass.

Despite what the politicians, university professors, and main stream say, Our system of government was never meant to be a democracy. We were set up as a Representative Republic.

A democracy is mob rule, nothng more, nothing less. But the Democrat Party ,so long a they rule the mob is o.k. with that.

From Article V of the US Constitution; 2/3 of both houses of Congress required to propose a Constitutional ammendment; it then requires ratification by 3/4 of the state legislatures.
