The electoral college is not needed, but it doesn't cause that many problems either. If you want to fix US elections, there are a lot of higher priority items to look at, like money in politics and gerrymandering.
A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks should be.

Certainly worth talking about, but yeah: I'd say money is the #1 problem right now.

Gotta love authoritarianism via the mob.
