Reading this board reminds me of the Red Scare back in the 50's.
Red fears
In 1949, the Soviet Union detonated its first atomic device, ending the United States' short reign as the sole atomic power on Earth. The entry of the Soviets into the atomic club made Americans nervous, not to mention a little suspicious: how did the USSR get the bomb so fast?
When it came to light that Soviet spies in the US atomic program had passed secrets to Russia, Americans began to worry that spies might be lurking in every corner of society. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, there were several highly-publicized espionage trials that convicted leading scientists and government figures of espionage, culminating in the 1953 execution of scientist Julius Rosenberg and his wife Ethel for passing information about the atomic bomb to Russia. These convictions served to justify fears that spies could be active throughout the country.
In this atmosphere of mistrust, a broad range of institutions rushed to root out suspected communists from their ranks. The US government stepped up loyalty programs and purged itself of anyone deemed a security threat. Individuals believed to be particularly susceptible to bribery or blackmail, such as debtors or homosexuals, were summarily dismissed. Schools and universities fired teachers who refused to swear an oath that they were not communists. Even civil rights organizations like the NAACP and the Urban League moved quickly to rid themselves of communists, lest they be accused of subversion.
Although it is true that Soviet spies were at work in the United States (recently declassified documents reveal that Julius Rosenberg was indeed sending atomic secrets to the Russians, though Ethel was innocent), only a tiny fraction of those who lost their positions were actually connected with the USSR in any way.
For there to be such a scare, there had to be something to it.
Russian spies acting like families, having children and keeping them indoctrinated to Soviet Union thinking, then growing up and becoming politicians in the US.
This is a 10th Amendment situation that they are trying to play, but voting for a president is a federal matter, the 10th Amendment does not apply because it is not the state itself only voting, therefore it is a federal authority for presidential elections.
Read 10th Amendment.
The Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which is part of the Bill of Rights, was ratified on December 15, 1791. It expresses the principle of federalism and states' rights, which strictly supports the entire plan of the original Constitution for the United States of America, by stating that the federal government possesses only those powers delegated to it by the United States Constitution. All remaining powers are reserved for the states or the people.
The electoral college can not be usurped by the state, it is a federal process.
The difference is, they get to CHOSE how to cast that vote, not a law telling them they HAVE to vote a certain way.
When you take away the EC vote and MAKE them vote according to popular vote, you are effectively throwing out all the rest of the people's votes.
That's not very fucking American.
You are an exceptionally retarded 'boomer' then, according to your own postings.
