Bring Back The Electoral College

I always thought the purpose of the so-called US "Electoral College" was to choose the BEST person available to fill the office of the Presidency.

What we have today is a system in which political parties choose the candidates instead, following rules of their own choosing and leaving We the People and our "electors" little choice as to who will get the job.

Does that make sense to you? Is that what you want?

In the system envisioned by America's Founders, we could get someone like Ohio Governor Mike DeWine as our next President ... or another capable person with demonstrated skills and experience fighting COVID-19.

THAT is the kind of leader we need now; not Trump, not Biden, not Sanders, not Clinton.

But you know what? That ain't gonna happen. We're going to get a game show host, a doddering old fool, or a megalomaniac.

Are you happy now?

IT'S TIME TO CHANGE THE WAY WE DO IMPORTANT THINGS IN THIS COUNTRY. COVID-19 IS GOING TO MAKE EVERYTHING CHANGE, AND WE CANNOT ALLOW THE POWERS THAT BE TO DECIDE HOW THEY WILL CHANGE.

IF WE DO, THINGS WILL GET EVEN WORSE THAN THEY ARE NOW.
