Sanders: Change the Electoral College
By Paulina Firozi - 12/19/16 05:17 PM EST

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) called for change in the Electoral College system on Monday as electors across the country gathered to cast their ballots.

Sanders noted Clinton’s lead over president-elect Donald Trump in the nationwide popular vote in arguing that the 200-year-old system should be changed.

He said such a result was not democratic, strongly suggesting that the Electoral College should not be used to decide the winner of the presidential election.

Who cares what this avowed Commie says? Bernie is last weeks news and a bigger loser than Hitlary. He will probably be dead before the next election he is so old.

Yep, the liberal way; the hell with the Constitution if it doesn't favor our agenda.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I just left a scathing tweet on his twitter feed.  We are a REPUBLIC, dammit!  You'd think people elected to Congress would understand our form of government, for crying out loud.  I'm about to SCREAM!
