Interesting factoid about EC winners who lost the popular vote....

[Carl in Michigan]

They refuse to understand this basic part of our REPUBLIC. They want to believe we are a democracy

Nat proved he's an uneducated tard.

 

[Unkotare]

There have been only FOUR presidents who LOST the popular vote but managed to WIN based on the Electoral College decision.......Bear in mind that we are the ONLY representative republic/democracy who utilize the decision of the EC.

Want to guess which party the FOUR electoral college presidents belonged in?

Benjamin Harrison
Rutherford Hayes
George W. Bush
The Donald......

And? Is there a point in there anywhere?

 

[progressive hunter]

we are not a democracy,,,

Just for education sake.....

We are not a "direct democracy" because of the founders' fears of the tyranny of the majority....but we ARE a representative democracy.

Isn't the tyranny of the majority exactly what you want with the dissolution of the EC?

.

we are a representative republic not a rep dem,,,its time for someone to get an education

Hey moron........Check out what the "R" in USSR stood for......

....then find a grown up to help you define the various forms of "republics".....LOL

Leftist always manipulate the meaning of words beyond all recognition. Killing a baby is "a woman's right to choose."
Tardism is "progressive." Him is are "gay."

Sorry you can't understand this, but WE are a true Republic.

 

[OKTexas]

EC saved us from the sleaziest politician in |American history.

I simply ask:

Of Donny and Hillary, WHO is facing multiple investigations on corruption, and WHO has had staff indicted and soon to be imprisoned???

Go on, fuckhead....answer THAT question.........LOL

Deflecting from your own thread, REALLY?

More accurately, we are a democratic republic, as not all republics are democratic.

Without looking, can you name the President who lost both the popular vote and the EC?

wouldnt losing both the pop and EC vote mean they didnt win and therefor not be president???

Yeah, in the case of the USSR, the "form of republic" was bullshit propaganda.

Yep. And then there's The Democratic People's Republic of Korea

If you don't like the law, then change the law, pretty damn simple

Working on it

National Popular Vote

Funny how commies come up with unconstitutional schemes to try to nullify the Constitution and gain permanent power.

.

Remember how they were whining after Kerry lost? They were saying we should elect presidents using exit polling instead of ballots.

Yep, it's always the systems fault, they never take responsibility for their shitty policies.

Rule of thumb: if you have to put "Republic" in your country's name, it isn't one.

Now, morons like you are totally against raising the minimum wage because that would "hurt" rich republican donors.

So you want the person at McDonald's who can't get your order right in the drive-thru to be paid $15 per hour?

The reality is that if that person isn't paid a living wage that person goes on public assistance.

So we can have the employee be paid a living wage or we can increase our taxes to pay for all the public assistance they need to survive.

While the CEOs, executives and stockholders make millions a year.

You have a problem with the wrong people. The people who need to not be paid more are the CEOs, executives and stockholders. They're just fine.

I personally don't want to pay those CEOS, executives and stockholders those millions a year. I prefer to pay that worker that 15 dollars an hour. They actually work for a living, they spend their earnings in our community thus supporting our economy. You just can't say that about those CEOs, executives and stockholders. They've parked their money off shore to avoid paying the small percentage of taxes our government imposes on them.

Then start your own company with highly paid no-skill workers and half-rate CEO's and see how successful you'll be.

So the OP admits he's lying by using the word "factoid." If this idiot knew the English language he would know that the suffix -oid means "similar to, but not the same thing." So this horse's ass admitted in the thread title that he was saying something similar to a fact, but not quite the same thing as a fact.

well we are called the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,,,

I like your optimism in assuming it's possible that a leftist knows the English language.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

so in practice it did exactly what it was meant to do

That is one intent. Another was to keep a wholly unqualified cult of personality out of the white house. Instead, it put one there.

The qualifications to be President of the United States is in the Constitution. Nowhere do I recall it saying the requirements are the nominee must meet liberal approval.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

They will never be able to move on

Speaking of acceptance or "moving one"....
Remember when McConnell the turtle stated that his MAIN priority was to make Obama....you know the half black guy.....a ONE-TERMER???............LOL

Yes, that would be a perfect example. He accepted that Obama won, and moved on to defeating him in the next election.

Notie that he did NOT say that his main priority was to reverse the first election.

Horseshit. McConnell never accepted Obama won.

Nor did any pseudocon.

So now some karma has come around to bitch slap them and they whine, "No fair!"

You mean Trump was more accepted by the left?

Heehee, well liberal graveyard-mold LOVES to caterwaul about how oh-so-educated and oh-so-enlightened they are, so I'm simply "holding their feet to the fire" based on their own bragging erudition credentials.

We are the only Republic that utilizes the EC because we are a nation of states. What is it about that reality that you can't grasp?
