We must keep the electoral college. Without it, last night's Nightline probably would have been about the war on cholesterol.

The electoral-college system was designed to protect our nation from the ignorance of its people. And, based on the 2000 vote, it's still dearly needed.

Systems Analyst -
I'm all for getting rid of the electoral college, but wouldn't that mean we'd have to dig up Samuel J. Tilden and make him president retroactively?

The presidency should go to the candidate who earns the larger minority of the popular vote.
