A full-blown war is raging against the Electoral College.
But as activist groups become more desperate to overturn our way of electing presidents before voters go the polls in November 2020, their arguments become more absurd and hyperbolic.
CNN recently ran a preposterous segment suggesting that James Madison called the Electoral College “evil,” a shameful distortion and an absurdity given that the man known as the Father of the Constitution had a direct hand in creating the institution.
Others have made more serious but ultimately absurd indictments of the Electoral College.

The Founding Father's, in the wisdom, established the Electoral College so that there would be fair elections and not one based solely on winning by a simple majority. Thus, keeping the larger populated states in check. That so many of our early presidents were from Virginia shows the danger of how higher populated states can control elections.
If you just had a popular vote by the people all the immigrants would decide who's president, is that what you want? Remember we are way out numbered and they have false documents and get here illegally by the thousands.
