Your facts are a bit off in regard to the most of the country voting for political name. HRC won the popular vote not political name, so more people wanted her. political name was elected by the electoral college, not the people!

Tell George W. Bush that,,he didn't win the Popular vote eather. lol
So the PEOPLE are not part of the Electoral vote? Cause i thought those PEOPLE are the reason political name won?

I am only stating what the man said. I believe people when they tell you who the are, believe them.. I am for wa, or and ca to have our own country. I am very sorry for the folks that are hurting.I don't think the orange one can fix it. He was a democrat all his life until he saw some folks he could manipulate.

 

[WeedHopper]

There is a history of Presidents elected by the electoral college. That goes back to it's start in the 18th century. It is how we elect a president, but it doesn't always reflect the will of the people. Nothing more than that. In giggy's post he said "obama has been bad for me and bad for our great country and we want change, and as you see it was most of the country that wants it." This statement is not correct. Most of the country would constitute a majority, and that is not what you had. Or political name would have won the popular vote as well.

When Truman ran against Dewey, Dewey won the popular vote. They even printed it in the newspaper that Dewey had won. He didn't win and Truman was president, because he won the electoral college.

That's ,,,,,President Elect political name,,,lol

Yep,,thats the way our Country Works. Didnt know it was a problem. I am a Patriot and have always excepted my President Elect. Didnt always like it,,but they were my President and i love my Country and excepted the Ppls choice according to our voting laws. Now it seems ppl want to change the way we vote because they arnt happy. I would not have been happy with Hillary but i would have excepted her just like i always have my Presidents.
As a matter of fact,i didnt like Romney or McCain nor Obama. Me and my Wife was hoping Hillary would win at the time,,and who did we get,,,Obama. So we excepted his Nomination and moved on,,even though i didnt like or trust the man.

I'm for giving California ,new Mexico, and Arizona BACK to Mexico. We stole them from Mexico in the Spanish/American war.
Giggy, We DEPENDS on a million immigrants (LEGAL) a year to survive. You need people to buy the older homes so people can buy new home ,so the home builders stay in business. Allowing the appliance makers to sell more of them. It has been that way for a hundred years. But having open boarders has killed us. Easy fix. If your legal, your the same as everyone else. If you illegally here you may stay, but not eligible for any welfare.
And you come here and commit a FELONY your gone.

Hopper, there have been complaints about the electoral college and the way the president is elected for more than 40 years that I am aware of. My posting wasn't about who was elected or whether I like them or not. It was about whether political name was elected by the people. Simple as that. My posting isn't about political ideology. Time to stop playing the patriot card though.

I wasn't trying to do a state by state analysis of the voting, only an overview of the results

There are issues with the border. When NAFTA was put in place, it was before 9/11. Now it's an issue. At the time, open trade was a good idea. The USA has a history of both expansionism and isolationism. They appear to be the 2 extremes of the pendulum that previous presidents have focused on. Both have their place, depending on the political climate and the economic conditions.

 

[WeedHopper]

Im sorry Umbra didnt know me being a Patriot was a problem for you. I wont ever say it again. Lol

 

[bozzo420]

I can tell you now ,the smaller states will not stand for the larger states controlling who leads the WHOLE country. California already gets 20% of the votes needed to elect a president. That's plenty.

 

[bozzo420]

free trade....lol We send stuff to Europe, there's an 18% value added tax added ...They send us stuff and gets no extra tax.
political name is right on. Don't tax ALL imports, just the companies that left the USA for cheaper labor. Tax the goods from them when the ship us the goods. Call it the" laid off worker reinvestment act"

Im sorry Umbra didnt know me being a Patriot was a problem for you. I wont ever say it again. Lol

Come on Hopper, being a patriot isn't a problem. But constantly telling everyone over and over again is. You are deliberately trying to twist what I said. You seem to use the term to give more credence to statements that you make, versus someone else who doesn't use it. There are plenty of patriots in this country, they don't all go around telling everyone so at every opportunity.

 

[Rosebud]

OK, peeps, i started this as I am having real sadness over this election. Now it needs to stop. Thank you for your understanding.
