HE certainly needs to become a forgotten person.

Go find an early bird special in Florida.

If we continue to see the world only through the lens of tribalism, race and ethnicity, then human beings will be a forgotten species.

then everyone's vote counts the same. There would be no Texas or California or New York elector votes. "States" would have nothing to do with votes, only the people who cast the votes would.

I've never understood this notion that if a person lives in a highly-dense area, then their vote should count less. It makes no sense. Its only the electoral college that gives "States" any power to elect the President.

in this country. The Electoral College exists, as does the Senate, to give states with small populations a slightly louder voice, per capita, than heavily-populated states.

It has nothing to do with race at all. We don't live in a purely democratic country. We are a government made up of 50 individual states. We forget that, sometimes. We do vote, but only in our own states, districts, and communities. We have no national elections. We are the "United States" of America, not the "United People" of America.

It's an important disctinction, but it's one Lepage is forgetting in his "concern" about people who are not as white as he and most of the population of Maine is.

He needs a refresher course on the history of our system of government.

power and do the same to YOU, then treat them even worse as a last ditch effort to avoid a just reckoning.

Oh, wait.

He does.

No wonder. Never mind!

It would also make this country safer to live in.

...white and male.

THAT is the paradigm the EC, gerrymandering and "voter ID" is intended to preserve.

And the lust for preservation of that paradigm is what got us Trump.
