Hello Again from Paradise1

Hi Folks, Seraph here in light of the coming election I have some additional thoughts on the American political process.

I must concur with MIT Professor Daren Acemoglu who said we need to address institutional deficiencies within the electoral process. The first major problem I see is the electoral college. We should abolish this archaic nineteenth century institution and make our executives popularly elected similar to the way they are in France and Britain. The electoral college is clearly what made Florida just such a debacle in 2000. I know this won't happen in the short term but this is just some food for thought for the future.
Have Fun Voting.
Sincerely
Seraph
