[QUOTE="Timmy G, post: 12640, member: 189"] [b]People talking of splitting USA (red-blue map)[/b] Many democracies around the world have copied the American system; none has copied the Electoral College. For a quick history lesson, the Electoral College was designed by the Framers of the Constitution to give us a mechanism to elect the president by the people, at least indirectly. At the time, we were a population of approximately 4 million people scattered along the Atlantic coast with extremely limited communications and transportation. Direct election wasn't practical. A factor they considered was that direct election of the president by the popular vote gave the people too much power. The original Electoral College began with Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution. In Afghanistan, the recent presidential election was determined by popular vote. The same will be true when elections are held in Iraq. ......... if this magical thing is so good for us, then why isn't anyone else doing it? [/QUOTE]
