text: Next off, in Article 3: In " BOGOTA, Colombia its a program that is set to spread to other countries, millions of colonbianss hiked, biked, skated, even took the busto work during a car-free day yesterday , leaving the streets of this capital city eerily deviod of traffic jams". In Article 3, as I have read in BOGOTA, Colombia the rush-hour restrctions have dramatically cut traffic even the restaurants andupscale shopping districts have cropped up majorally. In Article 4 " President Obama's ambitious goals to curb the united states greenhouse gas emissions". Now we are the next step to have or car usage rate dropped.                    DEAR Senator my name is luis and I think you should  change the election by popular vote for the presiden of the united states because then the people would choose who they like better and it would  easyer to vote . the reason why you shouldent agree with the electoral  college system  is that voters do not vote for the president .but for the slate of electors who in turn elect the president. so the electors can be anyone not holding public office. the state picks on the electors and sometimes state conventions and state partys central committe and the presidental candidates themselves. so  what i am saying is that if change to popular vote  it willshare the candidate share of the electoral college and invariably eceeds his share of the popular vote. there are five reasons for retaining the electoral college despite its lack of democratic pedigree and all are paractical reasons are not liberal or conservative reasons.         Yes, students would drastically benefit from attending classes at home. Home schooling in it's self has sky-rocketed within the last ten years. The potential and overall efficiency of a home classroom has been brought to the public eye due to rising educational costs. Not only has it been seen as a solution to economic issues, but also the beginning of a new era in public education. An era where students can productively invite both technology and education into their homes. Students who are home schooled are more comfortable and have a much lower chance of being interrupted by events they cant control.
