The Electoral College

I definitely think that we should keep the Electoral College. When we vote, do we really think about how our vote will affect every single person? Do we think about every social class, every ethnic group, every man, woman, and child in the whole country? There may be some who do, but a majority of us don’t. Some people even vote just for the sake of voting. We base our votes on what we want and what we believe in, and how we can better our own lives. By keeping the Electoral College, we know that our President is chosen to improve the lives of the overall general population. The Electoral College will make sure that everyone has an equal say. We should keep the Electoral College because it can make an intelligent, rational choice based on reason and consideration for the country’s future as a whole. We need the Electoral College to make sure that the right person becomes our President.

I agree with this statement. The electoral college helps us make the right choice in our president.

I like what she said about how not a whole lot of people really think about certain aspects when we vote. It's just for the point of voting for someone whose political spectrum is similar to yours. So keeping the electoral college will be the best for everyone.
