re: #63 Weaselone

The 25 states with the least people account for only 16% of the US population. That’s a pretty good reason not to award the presidency based on one state, one vote.

We should either go with direct popular vote for President or completely scrap our system in favor of something more like Germany’s.

You are assuming all the small states would vote for the same candidate, but there are a lot of small blue states in the Northeast, plus Hawaii and New Mexico. Either of your proposals would require a constitutional amendment, which is very difficult to pull off, so i was trying to reform our elections by statutory means to be more parliamentary.
