The problem with electing a President is we don't know what a truly F****** moron he/she is until AFTER elected - despite all the warnings beforehand.

do you understand why the electoral college was put in place? it certainly wasn't so the founding fathers could create a tradition! now, if many are in favor of no longer giving each state equal say in who leads the federal govt, then there could be a change. but i think many say get rid of it because they just don't understand why it's there, or what it was created for.
