    My great grandfather lost his arm in a cotton gin as a boy. My wife and I both have grandfathers who were farmers. Their kids picked cotton, worked for the railroads, raised cattle, and built their own houses. I'm pretty sure that they were white.

    Of course minorities were taken advantage of, but not by everybody and minorities didn't build everything.

    So a Republican couldn't win New York or California?

    "Moderate" Pete Buttigieg wants to eliminate the EC, too.

    I wouldn't expect you to! Then again, the left are always willing to provide example after example of it and their lack of the big picture concerning most subjects.. And that's good enough for me ¯\_(º¸º)_/¯

    Do you ever make sense?

    I cannot understand what you are trying to say in the context of our discussion.

    Of course a Republican could win BOTH California and New York. Lincoln won both...so did Grant, Hayes, McKinley, B. Harrison, T. Roosevelt, Taft, Harding, Coolidge, Hoover, Eisenhower, Nixon, Reagan and Bush, Sr.

    What are you asking?

    Asking what?

    I will go slow.


    Trump concentrated on winning by the rules and law

    Hillary concentrated on winning home coming Queen.

    You can call BS, but in reality, dems have worked to erode the second amendment. I live in Los Angeles (AKA the Dems petri dish) Only law enforcement, judges, and criminals carry guns here. We also have cases where opposing views on campus are restricted to the "Free speech zone."

    Berkley, the home to free speech has become home to anti speech.

    Unless warren is a dictator she is just another liar.

    Do her supporters actually believe the bs she is trying to sell ?

    Warren showed us what she is in 2016 when she refused to back sanders like tulsi did. Instead she backed Clinton Birds of a feather...

    Warren has no principles and just another lying scumbag career politician with no intent of representing anyone but the top 10 percent and herself.



    She revealed what she is in 2016 and sanders voters will not forget so easily.

    Yet none hand any elected office to the person who got less votes.

    Translation: Until Hillary lost, the EC served the country. Popular vote would a nightmare. Just think if it were close and all 50 states had to hold a recount.

    Citizens vote in elections of their state.
    There is no other vote. Your hypothetical is charming however.
