The Popular Vote does not Count

Due to the electoral college system that we have in this country the popular vote really does not matter in determining who wins the presidency of the United States. One university professor estimated that you only need to 19 percent of the popular vote and take the electoral college votes and you can become president of the United States. This is a ludicrious system that should be dropped and changed. We should have the popular election format that the Europeans have. It is really much better than the electoral college.
