1992, Democrats win the popular vote

>1992, Democrats win the popular vote
>1996, Democrats win the popular vote
>2000, Democrats win the popular vote
2004, Democrats lose the popular vote, but that's understandable as people are naturally more conservative after their nation was attacked
>2008, Democrats win the popular vote
>2012, Democrats win the popular vote
>2016, Democrats win the popular vote
Only once in the past 24 years have Democrats lost the popular vote, is America an inherently progressive nation? Is that crazy Singaporean right about us?

It was founded by disgusting liberals, of course it's a progressive country.

No, it's just that your entire political spectrum is shifted to the right of literally all white Western countries and that change is very slowing going to become less and less.

Because big cities (Which account for the majority of the population) are inherently liberal minded

>what are urban areas

every country has them and they always lean left. Even in your red states.

Couple that with an increasing number of spics and there's your problem.

It doesn't matter. Both the major US parties are identical.

>electoral college favouring desolate agricultural hillbilly states over intelligent metropolitan areas

way to take a terrible british political system and make it worse, prodigal son.

lmao

Fuck pussy, tight pussy

Best system

Nice reply seljaci

You know that metropolitan areas includes the white suburbs right?

>your entire political spectrum is shifted to the right of literally all white Western countries

When will this meme end?

Get fucked Londonistan

>when you make an absolutely abhorrent post

Last I've heard, she didn't win the pop vote

Which are filled with brainwashed liberals

No, there's just 2 million illegals that are allowed to vote by the Californian government.

>my allies are feethinkers
>my enemies are brainwashed

nice post cletus

It's usually half and half on average.

cuckservatives are embarrassing themselves by showing how massively easy to brainwash they are, billy bob

Never said conservatives are free thinkers especially in America where the term has lost its traditional meaning. Both sides try their best to brainwash.

As a man living in one of those hillbilly states.
That's rather rude of you to say to me. I have found my fair share of stupid people in the cities as well. It's just that they mindlessly follow a different party than the idiots here do.

sorry, I was being a memer
it just doesn't make sense to me why someone's vote from rhode island should mean more than someone's vote from NY

It's to preserve the power of the states.
If people in 5 states can pick the next president it's going to leave a lot of governmental bodies pretty miffed.
It's not a perfect system, but it's better than a straight popular vote would be.

to be fair if you call yourself left wing and call the working man a ''retaded hillbilly'' you might not be left wing

>media, politicians, celebreties, television, universities, employers telling you not to vote for the Trump is conservative brainwashing

You have no idea what your saying.

...

democrats aren't really progressive compared to the rest of the world

>FBI, wikileaks, russians, Breitbart, telling you to vote for Trump

>It's to preserve the power of the states.
Except you can still win the presidency with the 11 most populated states.

The EC doesn't do jack shit to help small states. Presidential candidates aren't inclined to visit Rhode Island or Wyoming any more now than they would be under a popular vote. As a matter of fact, the electoral college actually ruins any chance that the small states can have any power because really 90% of the power is in the swing states, all of which are large populous states.

If you had a popular vote, then the small states would matter more because then you'd have republicans in Vermont and democrats in Alaska being heard instead of silenced just because they happen to be in a deep red or deep blue state.

I said it wasn't perfect, but it sure as hell is a lot better than a straight popular vote.
You need to create a balanced system in which both the states, and the people are represented. The problem with the electoral college is that it doesn't represent certain states that are typically set on one side of the aisle.
And for that I really have no solution, maybe they should consider becoming a swing state somehow to drag the politicians there? I genuinely don't have an answer to it.
It does however make winning by taking all the major states unlikely. As two are set blue, one set red, and the other a swing state.

Yeah well that works both ways the right wing doesn't allow me to be an elitist asshole anymore because now apparently it's the party for peasants and their village feasts or whatever
At least the left wing treats these people properly with contempt, makes me i wish i was a leftist so i could be around educated sophisticated city folks like me instead of the literal plebeians that make up most of the right wing

You should just not bother with a president. Make him commander in chief of the military and nothing more and have more or less 99% federalism. That way every state gets the government it wants.

>At least the left wing treats these people properly with contempt
Dude look what everybody is saying about the people that voted for brexist and trump

nevermind this comment

He's right though. Imagine hanging out with those people. They're despicable. I'm well happy being a champagne socialist. We have excellent dinner parties.

Then whats the point in being a leftist if you hate the working class

...

I don't hate the working class. I just hate thick people: I know loads of working class people who voted remain but all of them are fairly intelligent. I've yet to meet a leave voter with the nous to tie their own shoelaces 2bh

(Brit btw)

>Is that crazy Singaporean right about us?
Who me?

>contest for electoral votes
>HURDUR WE WON THE POPULAR
VOTE HEHEHEHAHA

(You)

I flew in to london to vote brexit. You butthurt? I also rallied all the indians to vote brexit.

t. shitskin trash

>i dont hate the working class
>only the despiscable ones which are the majority of them

I fail to see the hypocrisy

I'm whiter than you bruce o'mally 1/16th abo

Yay, I finally summoned him :3

>Poor minorities voting the government should give them free shit

What a surprise

Wealthy minorities like Jews and Asians also vote Democrat.

More than 3 million non citizens voted in this election. Hillary did not win the popular vote

You'd still have the issue of republicans in NY and CA not being represented, as well as democrats in TX or Alabama.
Millions of people don't vote because they know that their state is almost always going to be a red or a blue state.

Why do cuckservatives always lie?

I am completely against Trump, but the electoral college is actually a good idea. It keeps voting more decentralized, so that a few big cities don't cancel out the rural areas, who have different wants and needs.

It's not just about liberals vs conservatives, more that we're a big country with diverse people.

>an old debunked rumor invalidates 3 million unaccounted votes
nah

That kinda shows that the united states is too big to effectivly govern doesn't it?

All these parts of America have very different needs and wants and some of them are antithetical to each other. How is a single government meant to satisfy all of them?

its not. thats why states exist

thats one of the biggest arguments for states rights and is precisely why the central government should be weak

source me, I gave you my source.

The founding fathers made it before the industrial revolution so they never really expected 55% of the country to live in cities.

your source had literally nothing to do with the subject at hand though

They have kids for that so they don't actually vote themselves.

Neither of your major parties are even considered left-wing in other parts of the world. Your country consists of centre-right and full-right, progressiveness and authoritarianism sprinkled unevenly wherever cause what're you going to do, vote for the other party?

Yup

American democrats would be right wing in Yurop.

>3 million illegal/dead people vote
>s-s-she won guys, no really!
lmfao

Yes, it did, did you read it? It explained where the myth that illegals are allowed to vote in California came from.

>A tweet
>literally who
>Fucking info wars that literally only sources that tweet
Grade A sources

Did you even read this shit before you posted them?

Let's be honest here for a second, did any of you ever actually believe America was a real democracy? I sure didn't. And if Trump had won the real vote but lost the bullshit vote you'd be doing exactly what they're doing now.

> majority of people think you're retarded
> muh 3 gorrilian illegals

The federal government was strengthened historically though because of states abusing human rights within their territory.

>human rights

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I literally never said anything about california allowing illegals to vote though, I havnt even mentioned california once. Alternative sources are just as good as you spewing unrelated garbage

I'm sorry, I went to the California thing because it was the closest thing I could find to what you were saying when I googled what you said.

You have a single tweet with no evidence released to back up that tweet and the "alternative media" desperately clinging to that because it's all they have to push their narrative. That sure is credible.

Trumptards can't parse anymore than 140 characters.

Leftists don't actually like poor people, because poor people are more often socially conservative and anti-immigration. Poor people actually aren't so bad.

kill yourself, you unwashed peasant

don't hate the player
hate the game

It's irony, dumbass.

you know that nyc, chicago, los angeles, san diego, boston, baltimore and shitloads of other major cities are majority minority, right?

Eh, both camps knew what the rules were. There's no reason to whine about it. Plus a lot of Shillary's votes come from California, Trump is down by a million votes compared to Romney.

The United States is a federal republic, end of story. It's not a true democracy. The states elect the president, not the people. We are a union of states. Imagine if down the line Yurope does become a federalized union. I bet they wouldn't go by the popular vote method, they would have to come up with a method were all member states are represented otherwise the bigger states would overpower the smaller.

You realize that the metropolitan areas of cities is much larger than the actual governorship of the city itself right?

Do you even know what metropolitan means?
