".... Then we can become the Ununited States, eh Bernie?...."

That's exactly what he's pitching. He's a commie through and through.

Hey, Bernie. This is NOT a democracy where the oft repeated democRAT line is "every vote counts".

The US is a constitutional representative republic. The Founders created the national vote that way to prevent the larger states from stampeding over the smaller states.

But, hey, you're welcome to pursue eliminating the Electoral College.

However, the electoral college is ensconced in our Constitution, which means getting rid of it requires a constitutional amendment. That's a two-thirds vote in both the House and the Senate and the ratification of three-fourths (38) of the 50 states.

If it is even possible, given the sharp partisan divide in the country, it could take a decade or more to get rid of it.

What we really need to do is to stop the losers from dictating the terms of winning the elections. Losers like Bernie and Hillary need to follow the law and get the votes, instead of whining because they didn't get the job done.
