Im still feeling the bern

stop smoking pot and learn something weed head

Electoral college, fuckkk.

Google a representative rebuild idiot

Electoral College dumb FUCK.

It's cause were a republic not a democracy fucking millennials don't even know the basics of this fucking country

Well you are a bernie cuck, so you don't get a lot of stuff

It's because Murrica has a totally outdated ass-backwards electoral system.

Welp, if you paid more attention in you government class instead of being a spaced out waste of flesh, you would know how the electoral college works.

Electoral college. Also it doesnt really matter considering the votes are pretty much a tie. This is a situation in which an electoral college is more fit as well since the people are completely split in this election.

Learn 2 Constitution
Also, if you take out doubles, illegals, and dead people Hillary still lost

It's so out dated to not want California and New York to determine all our our elecrions?
FoH

See This didn't seem to pose you a problem for the last 44 elections though

it's ''''''''''''democracy'''''''''''

>weed head

Confirmed 12 year old

It's a system designed to give smaller states a relatively equal voting power so megastates and cities don't completely decide the elections. This was put in place for good reason.

Don't you fucking question the founding fathers.

Are you a dumbass. Even if someone wins by 100 votes, they should win.

This the electoral college, however fucked it may be, is there for a reason.

I don't really agree with it, but it's the one of the best ways to ensure that all the states at least get somewhat of a say. The downside is that if everyone in the country voted for candidate A the electoral college could still just elect candidate B. Trump was right when he said it was rigged, he spent his time making sure it was rigged for him.

It's not outdated, if the election was based on popularity instead of electoral, something the likes of 43 states completely would not matter at all.

either way it was rigged on both sides

no, you're a dumbass because you can't see past the logic of
>BUT SHE HAD A BIGGER NUMBER REEEE
read a book sometime, faggot

200,000 votes isn't pretty much a tie. Even in comparison to the number of votes counted. There is either a tie, or a win/lose. There is no in between.

stop smoking weed and maybe you will.

Electoral College. Plus, this isn't even the first time popular vote lost. It's only the 5th time, but it has happened.

>murika

Not him but you should learn the appropriate times to use green text.

Do people really think they know which candidates would be better than actual senators?

They voted the way they did because she obviously sucks. They know much better than us. The electoral college is put in place because the general populace is fucking retarded. In this case they had two retards to choose from. This election was a joke just like Bush/Carey.

Get mad at your parties for nominating such idiots. We need the electoral college.

This. Bet your ass that 230k votes were in NYC and all over Cali. Also how the fuck does a state with the largest population start reporting and instantly get called? Sounds like some fuckery afoot

this

Ironic part is--the electoral college was put in place to make sure the people didn't directly elect a nutjob

The electors of the college can decide on whoever they want to vote for though. They've sworn to vote for who we suggest with our votes, but ultimately if they wanted to cast the state they're representing's vote for, say Vince McMahon, they can and he would get an electoral vote.

Just because you can green text, doesn't mean you should. Lurk moar.

To add onto this.. The presidential election is the only one people care about. When in fact, the important elections are at the state level and those electing congress etc. Maybe if you get Republicans out of the house and senate, things would have been different.

Take it as a wake up call to pay better attention to other elections. We elect these people in the electoral college as well.

The President is not the person to care about when talking about changes to the country. That's the legislative branch. The ones who make the laws. Start caring about electing those morons.

BUT SHE HAD THE POPULAR VOTE!

Just barely, she beat him out by 0.1%, and got destroyed in electoral.

Just suck it the fuck up and deal with it. You can either say we told you so in 4 years, or actually give the guy a chance. He hasn't even seen the inside of the oval office yet and you people already think the world is fucking over.

>They think there's a time and place to use meme arrows.

Heh.

out of the millions she only got less than 0.5% more votes them him.. a couple hundred thousand... and those were from idiot Californians who want free everything.

California is TOO BIG to be a winner take all state. Republicans in california don't even vote because they know they are not going to win California.

benie

Didn't hear you bitching about it when California was red under Reagan and Nixon

Kush is now legal in CA. I can't say I'll do it, but the majority will; this is CA's death.

*mic drop*

...

better than having the presidential election focus on 10 states. 1 persons vote has the same weigh no matter where they are.

Cali is full of spics, niggers, and dead peoples' votes anyway.

the few policies that hes put out are pretty fucked tho. but who cares, climate change is a chinese conspiracy and jobs will definitely come back to the rust belt right

that's becuase you're stoned out of your fucking skull

I am against legalizing Cannabis (and pretty much all other Drugs including Tobacco and drinking Alcohol) but Cannabis use (most if not nearly all drug use) make you lose weight heavily. So it is a wonderfu lthing for fat uneducated Americans.

so not all voters are created equal

Who gives a fuck what states want? It's the people that matter and every individual would be accounted for. Why would it matter if California has a bigger population if electoral voting wasn't in place?

because their rep didnt get the popular vote.

same reason theyre now praising russia. fkn hilarious coming from 'conservatives'

Okay, but the point is, if we had no electoral college at all, and it was purely "up to the people", California would decide like every president. You see, that would be worse than the Electoral College.

It's called having a fair system in place that allows for other parties to have a chance. Or else America would be a liberal paradise from the centralized cities that are ran by democrats.

Even with the electoral college it's a democrat favored system. We've been under liberalism for 8 years and you have nothing to show for it other than some trannies using the women's bathroom.

Everyone heard "free" from Bernie when he had no logical plan for implementing anything he said. Liberals have all of these ideas, with no legitimate way of enacting them. I could scream "Everyone deserves an education." Whether or not it's true, it's not a solution to the issue of college being expensive.

Seriously, ask any Bernie supporter how Bernie was going to accomplish his goals. They have no critical thinking skills.

Each state is assigned a certain number of delegates based on population, not size. Otherwise Texas, California an NY would decide every election due to large population. Let's say hypothetically ny only needed 2 million votes to assign Hillary with all the delegate points but 5 million votes for her. Now a surplus of 3 million popular votes exist that wasn't needed. There's where the extra votes are. Basically wasted being confined to one state. Add this up with other states that had the same outcome. Looks like she won but she didn't. If it were one person one vote, then things will be different. So always remember your votes in the primaries are as close as you can get to choosing who wins.

no you dickwit, the people would decide. it wouldn't matter where theyre from because the voter collective would elect the presient.

Because then every other state may as well not even participate in the election. Candidates would campaign only in California and appease to their whims to collect votes, leaving everyone else in obscurity.

why do people put more than one hit into a bong? it's just a waste of weed at that point. if you're passing a pipe or a joint around it's cool I GUESS but this dude just let about 20% of his pack go up in smoke. Sad!

Bernie had a plan, but I salute you for doing minimum research. For some reason when Bernie said using our tax dollars for universal healthcare and education, the right wing heard "free shit"

I would rather pay high taxes for education and healthcare than be paying into social security that I will never see, or food stamps for the breeders to feed their spawn.

"liberalism"

maybe if we had a congress and senate that actually tried to cooperate.

but now that the tables have turned, yall are a ok with fillibustering everything and stonewalling as much as they can.

Second time in a row, Sup Forumsrother

Republicans have't been able to win the popular vote in more than 20 years but they own all branches of government by cheating (voter suppression, gerrymandering and straight up controlling the Supreme Court). Checks and balances are gone, Democracy is dead.

Check out the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, a dozen states have joined already and they only need 270 represented electoral votes to change the system.

It's simple really. You just follow what works with other countries and apply them to here. It's called progressive thinking. America is hung up on being capitalist so everything is about making money from any institution that exists here....and that's why education is shit and health care and social security and......I don't have all day

disturbing photos thread

Because the system is fucking RIGGED

the popular vote was really close though. I think it was a couple million as the difference so yes in fact candidates WOULD have to travel across the country to get as many votes as possible.

kek

We have already had alcohol prohibition you dumb cunt

>I live in rural area
>my vote is more important

Fuck off...

Thank god you're not old enough to vote, that's not how that works at all.

And if the majority of people are in one state, then that state, red or blue decides the election every time.

Sorry that having 3 states decide the election not working makes you upset

He's referencing the broken system.... dumb fuck

Someone doesn't know what population density is.

Less than 300k actually last I checked

No, the case is as it is because the electoral college is in place.

For instance, if one man would give you $10 to suck his cock while another would give you only $1, you'd obviously suck the $10 cock. Similarly, pandering to bigger states is more effective than pandering to smaller states if the popular vote was the only consideration.

You're not entitled to either of those, though. Not to mention the fed shouldn't have its hand in issues that should obviously be state ran. Do you want to pay for cancer treatment of a pack a day smoker? Do you want to pay for a heart transplant of an obese individual? People constantly do things that are shit for their body, it's not my public duty to take care of them. I'll happily help the disabled and elderly, but there's no reason you shouldn't be able to pay your own health insurance. (Unless you know, your premiums have gone up 300% from ACA.)

It's the same for education. Why should I be paying for someone else's education? Why should I go to college for 8 years, only to have half of my wage taken away to give an 18 year old who has never worked a day in their life an education?

You're entitled to nothing. But you're more than welcome to earn and work for things in life. You'd pay high taxes for something you would only use in limited amounts? You realize the taxes on the lower earning workers is already above 20% on income in certain states?

But hey, taxing everyone to death seems to work. Just look at California.

t. highschool politician

>cuck thinks calling someone Else a cuck will make them a man
>.... knows deep down he's still a cuck

>a couple million
>less than 300,000
: ^ ]

no, it wouldn't matter. each individual vote tallied would choose. how is this a difficult concept to grasp?

they would campaign harder on more dense cities for sure, but it wouldnt make a difference if the state went blue or red.

>elections are always this close so we don't need an electoral college

Nice.

I'm a dem with kids and I'd benefit a lot from socialism, but for fucks sake the same boomers who voted for Obama even voted for Trump because everyone scared them into ignorance when "lulz fuck teh 1%" turned into "fuck everyone with money fuck everything you did to get it" and forgot the fact that they have enough fucking money to do whatever they want.

It's cool, everyone will remember this age group as being more pathetic than the fucking hippies so that's cool.

He won the game Hillary was trying to stack.
Basically, he won, Republic rules of this version of the game.

>the voter collective would elect the presient.

Thing is, the different states have different problems and needs just due to their locations, demographics and primary industries. Even in the high population states, most of that population is living in one or two large cities.
So you would have just a few cities deciding what's best for the entire country, most of which is nothing like those few cities.
That's what the electoral college thing is designed to address.
It would be like having just the people in the cities of London, Berlin and Madrid rule over all of Europe.

>dumbass doesn't realize founding fathers had nothing to do with electoral college b

Stand with us OP!

People are literally banding together in cities and schools all over the country to right this wrong. Hillary is the real president elect, not the racist who was put in by a vast white majority vote.

Rise up with us, we're taking our country back before we lose it to these xenophobes.

the states that voted for trump had more electoral college votes

what? if it was upto popular vote thats exactly how itd go. people from buttfuck AK would have the same say as dumbshit spics from AZ.

More people voted for Gore than Bush and Bush won.

It is a Republican thing. You wouldn't understand.

youtube.com/watch?v=cjuD6lZUU2A

actually there is still some votes that havent been counted yet. They are still close in popular votes and it looks like trump could actually get the popular vote as well.

kids thinking they know everything about politics

#cut4hilary
I wanna see how many are retarded enough to do this

Be silent cuck, you get no say now that you lost

Dude....no. like it or not the electoral college is a good thing. By no metric can you say that the majority of the country wanted either candidate. Neither one would've gotten 51% of the vote. As it stands, the popular vote is like 2 tenths of a percent different. As such a popular vote doesn't prove anything. BY counting regions you find that most states wanted Trump.

...

You miss the entire point. WE'RE ALREADY PAYING FOR ALL OF THAT. And we're paying MORE than we would than if we had some modern healthcare/education

Look it up. We pay MORE for healthcare and get less.
