The Electoral College Must Save the Republic

In this episode, Dr. Veltmeyer describes the critical role the Electoral College plays in our constitutional republic and how it was designed by the Founders as a "check" on the extremes of direct democracy. He asserts that the republic now faces the greatest threat in its history and that the state legislatures must step in and reclaim their constitutional authority to name their own bloc of electors for the presidential election. The Founders developed a system to overcome fraudulent elections, demagogic politicians, and denial of the rights of the minority that result from the radical majoritarianism. It's time we used it.
