text: second of all, their are many reason why th electoral college should change o popular voting. Well one reason why that they should change it is because "under the electoral system, voters vote not for he president but, for a slate of electors, who in turn elect the president." this quote means that instead of voting for the president your actually voting for the people who are going to vote for them. When people go voting I would think that they would want to actually vote for Barack Obama but instead your actually not. That system needs to be banned if thats suppose to be a good way to vote well then it needs to be changed because if he U.S. is for the people and by the people  well then the "people" should have a more wider range of  who gets to be the president of the United States then just someone else voting for them.
