Elizabeth Warren’s Promise To Hillary

Elizabeth Warren’s Promise To Hillary

Image credit: Washington Examiner

A fundamental theme that Democrats often fall into is to change the rules if they cannot win.

At a town hall event in Mississippi, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) pledged to avenge her predecessor candidate, Hillary Clinton, and do away with the Electoral College if she is elected president.

The plan to eliminate the Electoral College has caught fire among Democratic presidential hopefuls, and Warren is just the latest in a line of prospective nominees who want to replace the age-old system of allowing each state a certain number of votes proportional to their size and population with a “national popular vote” that will, of course, favor Democrats.

Warren, however, may have been the first to announce her plan in a state that would be cut out of the presidential process almost completely were the “national popular vote” system adopted.

Ironically, CNN reports, Warren announced her plan by suggesting that a national popular vote would make sure all Americans count equally in the process of electing a president.

“Come a general election, presidential candidates don’t come to places like Mississippi. They also don’t come to places like California or Massachusetts, because we’re not the battleground states,” she said. “My view is that every vote matters and the way we can make that happen is that we can have national voting and that means get rid of the Electoral College — and every vote counts.”

Warren is right on one count: around 90% of electioneering takes place in 10 or 11 major battleground and swing states. But eliminating the Electoral College wouldn’t necessarily change the plan to win the presidency; it would merely change the select destinations.

Presidential candidates still would not go to “places like Mississippi” in the event of a national popular vote. Places like California (which Democrats do, in fact, visit, if only to collect checks from Hollywood bigwigs), New York, and Virginia would more than dominate electoral politics — they would, essentially, be able to exercise near-imperial rule over most other states.

That’s fine for Democrats, but not exactly fine for the people of Mississippi.

Warren’s plan also has other problems. Like a handful of more extreme Democratic proposals, promising to abolish the Electoral College is a bit like a fifth grader promising to make every day pizza day in the cafeteria as part of his platform for heading up the student council: it just isn’t going to happen without a major change in how party politics operates.

The Electoral College is enshrined in the Constitution and would require an amendment to alter, and an amendment involves calling a Constitutional convention (difficult), or obtaining 2/3 of the vote in both houses of Congress (nearly impossible). And although a handful of states have pledged to buck the Electoral College system and assign their electors to the winner of the national popular vote, acting on those votes could trigger a firestorm of litigation and a potential Constitutional crisis.

Warren, though, seems pretty much willing to commit to any proposal that earns her even a fraction of a percent at this point. Trailing far behind the leaders, and unable to move her numbers above 7%, it looks as if her bid to become president is over just weeks after it started. In addition to the Electoral College, Warren has proposed support for reparations (though she isn’t sure what that looks like), and has tacitly endorsed packing the Supreme Court with additional judges.

And yet, none of these three extreme proposals has moved her any further up in the polls.

    Warren couldn’t plan a tea party much less anything else. Avenge “what” Hilly lost and did it herself.

    Any candidate that wants to violate the Constitution can not be trusted. Not that they could. It would take two thirds of the states ratifying it before it could be changed. But think about this. If they’ll change one thing so that it benefits their party alone, what will stop them from changing the whole Constitution to benefit them. The Founding Fathers penned a document that has supported our country and rights for 233 years. We are the richest and freest nation on the planet. We have more freedoms and even the poorest of us are in better financial health than most countries. Why would you jeopardize that so one party can rule your life and implement their socialist agenda that would bankrupt our country and plunge us into a depression that would make the Great Depression look like a temporary financial setback.

    The leftist commucrat agenda is plain for all to see… subversion of the US Constitution and turning the country into a dictatorship by the most-populated states, running rough-shod over the more rural states.. Such could be the spark that will ignite the latent civil war this country has been building toward. Liberal chutzpah may well be their undoing.

    The commucrat agenda is plain for all to see. Disenfranchise the lower-population states and allow the high population cities to run the country with little input from the large rural sections of the country. The EC was placed in the Constitution by the Founders to avoid and prevent such “tyranny of the majority”. Repealing the EC might become the match which ignites the coming civil war… God help us. From the idiocracy of the liberals, Lord deliver us!

    The only way we will win is that we can make sure it is done legally , so we all have to be on the lookout during the election and make sure the dems cannot rig the votes, like they tried to do with Hillary . We all need to be at the election sites and watch out for anything suspicious going on .

    Don’t forget to mention Omar, Pelosi, Schumer, Clintons, Obamas, McCabe, Comey, and the list goes on and on. Trump needs to build the wall, get re-elected again and drain the swamp or Deep State and corrupted politicians in the House/Senate, DOJ, FBI and some WH administration. It has been going on too long. I say if they try to eliminate the Electoral College then why not get rid of Congressman as well. Let the American citizens vote on legislation versus senators and congressman?

    Forget China. Forget Russia. We the people need to take up arms and go to war against these tyrants. My day would be made to see the horror in their lying eyes as they realized they were about to take their last breath. EVERY ONE OF THEM. Because of their Anti-American policies. The constitution does NOT PROTECT THEM. AND. They should be notified that they will in fact NOT be allowed on the ballot. Nor will they ever hold office. Ans start taking out the enemies that already infiltrated our offices. If their ignorant followers want to step in. They go down as well. PERIOD.

    Democrats want full Marxism complete rule over us just like Stalin and Hitler.Open borders, vote fraud, free college brainwashing, convicts vote thought they can’t read, California becomes Venezuela, electoral college elected Abraham Lincoln because the the two running split the vote and Lincoln, the greatest President freed slaves only because the electoral college allowed him to win. The other candidates were Southern democrats owning 4,000,000 slaves.As usual Democrats are lost because of their failed ideology.Democrats have colleges, Justice System, Government employment and the immigration system which has allowed more legal ,immigration than any country on earth and now MARXISM with Gulags for who disagree.
