But then the power would all be concentrated in the states with major

Centres? Are our Canadian neighbours rubbing off on you, Steve?

Also, you think that states with major populations centers don't already
control the elections? Montana is a huge state, but still has only 3
electoral votes. Like it or not, the vast majority of the populace is
concentrated in or near the big cities..


Just like the Israelis turning into Nazis, Steve is becoming Canadian.

Bush ruined the Republican party.It is going to take a while to rebuild
the Republican party.Look at the makeup of Congress, largely Southern
Republicans.Rebuilding the Republican party can be done.

Pirate activity should pick up. With the coming of the "fairness doctrine"
and all.

Pure paranoia.

It's amazing how nutty ideas like "Obama's going to shut down free
speech" or "He's a Marxist" come from.
Certainly not from any rational place or objective observation, or
any .... what do you call them? oh yeah, FACTS.

It's just a lot of fear and smear. The American people didn't buy
it. And neither should you.
Wait and see. He might be more like Bill Clinton, who left office
with a nearly 70% job approval rating, and
not an awful president like Bush, who is leaving in the 20's.

Even in the unlikely event that a new Fairness Doctrine would mandate
anything more than a standing offer of airtime for opposing viewpoints,
it would only apply to over-the-air broadcasts on the public airwaves;
cable TV and the internets would be unaffected. Nobody listens to the
radio anymore anyway.

Nobody? As I've said before, 'tard boy, maybe it's time you made a hasty departure from RRS.

An interesting observation. When McCain's consession speach got down
to the "thanking his campaign manager's dog" point, I did a band scan
of both the AM and FM bands. There were a dozen or so broadcasts of
the speech on the AM band from stations biased to all different points
of the politcal spectrum, but only two or three on on the FM band
and they were either on local NPR or the CBC. FM was business as usual,
(robot pop/country/rock-oldies music where I live), no way to tell that
anything was happening in the real world. (Public service, my ass.
To Hell with corporate radio).

They announce "Barack Obama broke the last color barrier in America
today, winning a decisive mandate and dealing a serious blow to the
opposition party, reeling from eight years of a deeply unpopular
president".

Or something like that.

Then everything goes on, life as normal. Not much changes for most
people most of the time, except with the very worst of presidents.

Nope. I just discount disinformation and junk news sources as such,
rather than being suckered into them.

Unlike you, I don't believe crazy conspiracy crap because it's on some

1 (one) vote may not count for all that much out of millions of votes, but
what if
all of the people who think that their 1 (one) vote doesn't count don't

Elections can, and are, lost because of all the individuals who think that
their 1
(one) vote doesn't count.

If only the "popular vote" was counted, then every vote would count. But
the way everyone's vote is compartmentalized into states (the "electoral
college" scam), all it takes is one person voting in each state to determine
the winner.

Example: You want to vote for candidate Tweedle Dee, but you say **** it I
don't feel like voting. Your state goes for Tweedle Dee, but candidate
Tweedle Dum wins the election.

Explain to me again how "every vote counts". Your vote would have made
absolutely no difference at all, because of the "electoral college"
bull****. If popular votes counted, then your vote COULD have made a
difference.

The fact that it is possible get the most actual votes, yet lose the
election is proof that the "electoral college" bull**** is an absurd way to
elect a national leader. The person with the most votes should win, not
based on where those votes came from.

But then the power would all be concentrated in the states with major population
centres.

You Liberal/Democrat/Marxists need to stop whining.

No, just exactly the opposite.

Popular vote would give every person in the USA *exactly* the same
vote for president in a single national election.
Whereas the electoral college OVER-REPRESENTS low-population states,
because they get 3 "FREEBIE" electoral votes no matter how small the
state population is. Theoretically, a state could have 1 resident
with 3 electoral votes, to take the silly extreme, vs. a tiny fraction
of a millionth of an electoral vote in a large state.

It may come as a revelation, but a lot more people live in cities and
surrounding suburbs, than live in rural areas.
States with big population centers also have more voters who need
represented.

Devil's advocate time. I would like to see the electoral college done away
with, too.. but there is some built-in regulation the

Yes, even a state with a tiny population, such as Montana, Wyoming, and
Alaska, has 3 votes in the electoral college. This is because every state
has two senators and a minimum of one member of the House of
Representatives. However, additional House members are added based directly
upon population of each state. This does tend to even out the electoral
votes a bit so that, in general, the electoral college is somewhat
representative of the popular vote... and then there are elections like this
one. These happen because the cities tend, in general, to be liberal, and
vote Democrat by a small margin (usually around 60/40 or thereabouts),
whereas small towns and rural areas tend to be more conservative, and vote
Republican by a somewhat larger margin (closer to 80/20). Based on
populations, this means the popular vote ends up more or less equal (usually
no more than 5 points plus or minus). The electoral college, however, votes
preferentially to elect on the basis of large population centers, so the
electoral college numbers can skew quite far from the norm (as with this
election).

The results are generally the same, either way. Very seldom does the
electoral college go a different direction from the popular vote, but it can
and does happen occasionally (as with the 2000 election).
