When you ask other people, they will tell you their story, and you will get an honest opinion on what would work for you. People ask for advice from other people is to: Have more opinions, use those opinions and move them around, like a puzzle, and find out which one is best for you, not everybody else.The electoral college has many inherint flaws that make it less desirable than a simple election by popular vote. It's only rebuttals to said flaws are weak, and provide little to no reason why the college is beneficial. So there is no real reason to have it in the first place.

It would accomplish this by closer to a real democracy, and forcing the candidates to win over more people.
