Dear Friends, Patriots and Sojourners After Truth:

The plan for picking Electors was created in ARTICLE II, Section 1, of the Constitution, and improved by the action of the Twelfth Article of Amendment, ratified in 1804 and announced to the public of September 25th of that year. If neither candidate for the Presidency can obtain an electoral majority, then the House is immediately called to order for the purpose of selecting the president, and the delegations of the States are polled and each State casts one vote, which makes California precisely equal to Delaware, and New York precisely equal to New Mexico. The popular vote is of no consequence whatsoever in this scheme of things, except for the fact that the Rockefellers and the international bankers have -- over the 20th Century -- corrupted the Electoral system of this Republic, by imposing a winner-take-all mentality on every aspect of our democratic processes. There is no logical reason that all of the voters who didn't choose Albert S. Gore in California should be disenfranchised because a plurality of voters there did!

This winner-take-all nonsense is not stipulated in Article II or in the 12th Amendment: in fact, the several State legislatures are endowed with plenary or absolute power over the selection process, and can create districts for voting for each Elector; or can choose some by a lottery and others by "sampling," or voting by percentages of registered parties; or they can call citizens using "voire dire" and pick the Electors according to who seems to be the most wise and sanguine persons, without any regard to party, faction or popular votes.

What matters then is how the people vote for their State Legislatures, as it is my understanding that the Governor cannot veto the choices made by the Legislature, but that matters pertaining to election laws derived from the method chosen can be subject to the usual system of passing and approving laws.

There is nothing wrong with the Electoral College system that the several States and their legislatures cannot fix: the idea that Senator Dick Durbin (Mr. Gun Control), and Ray LaHood (how is that for a name that evokes stupidity?), are for it makes me dead-set against having it changed. Certainly not by them.

After he was first elected to the Congress, I watched LaHood on C-Span one morning and heard some fairly interesting things: he was, I thought, a classic and conservative Republican, but then again he was also for "free trade," at all costs. That was nothing new. But his proposal to abolish the Electoral College seemed intriguing.

I had been researching the original Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution and felt that a letter to Mr. LaHood might open the doors to a further investigation. I was hopeful. As this was some years ago, I was in possession of much less substantive information than has been assembled in the interim, and way less than I have in my command now. Needless to say, despite writing to him several times, I never heard one word in reply. I guess I should have sent in a check for $1000.00, too.

LaHood is just another tool of those who would make chumps of us all, another foil for the forces of tyranny. The more I have seen of him the more convinced I am of his innate stupidity.

The Electoral College preserves the rights of the small States and gives their legislatures "leverage" over the Presidential selection process that they will never have again if the giants are allowed to dominate the voting with their huge populations.

Abolish the Electoral system and the United States will be converted into "the Peoples Republic of California And Her Forty-nine Little Friends." The Electoral College protected the great State of California from the huge eastern States, when it was first admitted, and had only one representative in Congress, and now it is the turn of the College to protect Delaware and the two Dakotas from Hillary-on-the-Hudson and other Californications. The process only moves to the House if there is no majority, and the members of the House have from January 6th to March 4th to obtain the twenty-six votes of the States themselves to elect a new President, in which case -- again -- Delaware is protected in its sovereignty by the process from the monster on the Pacific. Any state which has an even number of House members could be deadlocked, in which case its vote for the President is a null vote or the equivalent of an abstention.

This is a difficult way to get that all-important civics lesson we have all needed, but it is working, I think. Further, it is exposing to the whole country just what a rotten crew has been assembled by these Clintonista gangsters and their whole corrupt harem of political thugs and whores.

Love or leave it alone, the Electoral College preserves the sovereignty of our federal governance, by keeping the States equal under law, which should be an important message to us all.

Furthermore, any talk of "changing the Constitution" should be met with -- "so's your old man!" and "what about the original Thirteenth Amendment?" Can we get the whole of the Constitution on the table, for discussion, and debate, before we let the Clintonista wrecking crew loose on it? Remember, in the new Senate, Hillary Rotten Clinton and Dick Durbin will be front and center with the rest of the Schumercrats and their Marxist ilk.

The whole truth first, let us have the whole truth first! And then set the table to talk about changes and amendments!!
