MINORITY RULE
(October 20, 2004)

Granted, and even though America is relatively speaking one of: "The new kids on the block",...it's unarguable that we've evolved into being the most compassionate worldwide (even during wartime), the very best and most powerful democracy on earth. No ifs, ands or buts.

Regardless, and since the longtime instituted Electoral College Voting System of choosing national leaders (unfortunately even during wartime also) exists, such should make all Americans wonder just-whom-the-hell are best served by such an actually anti-REAL democracy and/or anti-REAL majority rule NONSENSE?
Certainly NOT: "We The People" nor anyone else worldwide for that matter. Possibly quite the opposite.

In point of fact, only fools or duped followers of politicians and the politicians and affiliated themselves benefit and/or are rewarded by such: "NONSENSE", seriously propagate that The Electoral College System has anything to do with a REAL democracy and/or a REAL majority rule,...WHATSOEVER.

The livelihoods and very reasons for being of many career ruling elite, career pundits/journalists, career zealots and career scholars usually enhanced by The: "NONSENSE" aside,..."The UN-Connected", not affiliated with such and/or overwhelmingly Vast Majority of Americans SHOULD DEMAND BETTER. An Electoral College which favors self/clique-serving political rulers, affiliated and supporters ABOVE ALL ELSE doesn't belong in this so called: "Democracy",...or in any democracy for that matter.

After all, no American should believe that Our Forfathers fought a war (re. The Revolution) against lordly and/or institutionalized minority political rule from abroad and then established a Representative Republic,...merely did so that We could then have our own homegrown variation of quite similarly lordly and/or institutionalized minority political rule. That's basically what The Electoral College helps perpetuate and continues on unabatted.

Besides,...what-the-hell-ever-happened to that: "REAL democracy" bit and/or that: "REAL majority rule" thing?
Has that too been historically revised to politically suit some career ruling elite...ALSO?
Sure seems so.
