I believe our founding fathers created the electoral college because they believed the average voter to be too stupid to know what is good for them. We shouldn't change it until we can prove them wrong. Those Florida voters who don't even read their ballots before they do a half-assed job of punching them are just proving the point.

"And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man." -- JFK Inaugural, 1961
"Extremism in the defense of liberty is not a vice." -- Barry Goldwater, 1964 GOP Nomination acceptance speech (not George W. Bush 40 years later...)
