Says the Socialist

Wow! While she is an attractive girl....that picture somehow captures a whole lot of truth and gave an instant gigantic headache.

edit to add:

Looked again and am getting dizzy with pain.

Dear Ms Occasio

We are not a democracy

You'd think a member of Congress would be aware of this fact but apparently not!

RBG forgot what the 14th Amendment was and had a Constitution handed to her.

So these people who all want minorities to have more say want to switch to a popular vote which gives the majority all the power. Do they even think about what they're saying?

Every time I see her picture it reminds me of a woman (they really do look alike and have the same horse face) I used to work with that thought I was absolutely stupid till I had to help her on some project she had no clue about. A lot of it was information gathering to produce averages and other calculations.

The problem was the information we wanted was mixed in with a bunch of other crap so we had to use a criteria to separate out the crap and get down to what we needed. They only looked at the information every 2-3 years and it would be cost prohibitive to record it separately, so much cheaper to have an employee spend a few weeks massaging data every 2 years versus spending millions.

I had been doing this for 7 years with advice and help from my management and a little outside help. Well we got new management and they decided she needed to gather the data because she was a data whiz. So I said fine whatever she can have at dissecting the data because it was a pain in the ass.

So she gathered the data, confused everyone she requested the data from and inflated the numbers from the prior report by about 300%. Management realized something was wrong because the most it had ever varied before was about 20% either way.

So I had to completely redo everything and talk to everyone on the data collection side to get the correct information. They all asked me why I wasn't in charge in the first place and I responded management thought she would be better.

She was a pain in my rear who I avoided after that till she got laid off the next year.

Keep in mind several states have already changed laws to try and get around the EC via their delegation process.

I have trouble believing she's college educated.

She just went to a third Jr high.

She's correct in the sense that the Electoral College (with each state's number of electors assigned based on Congressional representation) gave the Three-Fifths Compromise an impact on the presidential vote. Of course, that particular part of the Constitution has been unused for 153 years.

The stupid part is her assumption that winning the popular vote = winning the election if it were decided by popular vote. As wyoag93 pointed out, all presidential candidates' campaign strategies are based around winning the Electoral College. So we can't just assume that everyone would vote the same, or even that we'd have the same nominees.
