Holy shit batman! You mean, when we collect the dense populations of L.A, San Francisco, Seattle, New York and a few other coastal cities we can get enough popular votes to decide the fate of the entire country? !!!
So, you are telling me that states like Idaho, Montana, Texas, Arizona, Utah, The Dakotas and all those interior states should just sit down, shut up and accept what the elites in 16 states have decided?
Well, sorry, but the result would be disastrous! States with low populations would decide that they are not represented fairly in this United States and we would quickly no longer be the United States, we would be Western America, Eastern America and Middle America … 3 countries where there once was one.
No thanks.
And drop the slavery bullshit, that was over 200 years ago, sheesh.
Did you know that our many of our founding fathers owned slaves? Nah, nobody wants to bring that up. Look at the list of signatories on the constitution… oops, alot of them did things you don’t like. So perhaps we should trash the constitution and write a new charter based on what? Socialist leaning communism? Hmmm, good luck with that.
Slavery is bad, its no longer in our culture and everyone is taught how it, in any form, is bad. Unfortunately there is still plenty of slavery in Africa, parts of Europe and Asia. We, the United States, have grown past all that, so let it go.
