On Monday, Sen. Elizabeth Warren reiterated her view that the Electoral College should be abolished and U.S. presidents should be elected by popular vote. “My goal is to get elected—but I plan to be the last American president to be elected by the Electoral College. I want my second term to be elected by direct vote,” she tweeted.
In the accompanying video clip, she said, “Call me old fashioned, but I think the person who gets the most votes should win.”
Warren has a curious idea of what counts as “old fashioned,” since her position on the Electoral College puts her at odds with the decidedly old fashioned Founding Fathers, who rightly worried about what James Madison called the “tyranny of the majority.”

Another idiot liberal that does not understand why the electoral college is in place.
Don't bet on that you lying old hag!
Put the crack pipe down Pocahontas...
She is a communist
The old saying, "two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner" comes to mind.
Wow! That "Indian" is going to be so powerful she can throw out the constitution. Now THAT is an impeachable offense! She is uneducated on the constitution and the founding father's reason for putting the electoral college in the constitutional. Her ignorance should disqualify her from even running for president. She's not old fashioned, she's stupid, or at least she thinks the voters are.
Maybe in a thousand years...
Warren intends to be a dictator. The elections will be controlled by the large population blue states, period. She will be another Democrat who does not uphold her oath of office.
I wish people would realize our founding fathers did not trust us with the vote and that is how we got the EC in the first place. Once votes are cast the super delegate for that state can override the will of the people and vote for who they like with the EC votes of that state. The EC was a huge screw job to the public by our founding fathers.
Ha, ha. B.S. artist.
F O S !
How she got into the senate is a mystery.
I'm telling you people you better undomesticate yourselves real damn quick because war is coming. It won't be legal one day. It will start with you labeled a terrorist until the entire country breaks down in it. Unfortunately for the fence straddlers, my side, maybe our side, have decided it's better to live free and die then submit. Allah powers me, maybe Jesus does it for you. Figure it out.
Little too soon to be counting your chickens, Lizzie.

I see you either failed, or failed to take a political science class.

Sounds like YOUR state is screwing YOU, not the electoral college. Your STATE decides how your EC votes are applied, not the constitution. Take a class. Learn something.
Yes, four heavy Democratic states would elect every president, and 46 states would have no say! Makes sense!
Northwest Woodsman: I guess she wants the pedo Marxist democrats inhabiting the cities on the east and west coast decide who the rest of the country gets for president. Yup, that’ll work!
