Why our Presidential Elections aren't majority rules

I've been watching all the silly protesting going on today in the various state capitals around the country. Arrogant self-entitled Democrats continue to whine about President-Elect Trump. The nation is doomed. Michelle Obama told Oprah Winfrey we have no hope.

???

We have had no hope for the past eight years. We were told that elections have consequences, and Obama won. He was unable to work with Republicans in the congress, so his lack of leadership forced him to become a dictator and rule via executive order, often illegally. President Obama released POW's back to the battlefield so they can kill more Americans as well as our allies. The word for that is "treason."

The past eight years have been the most troubling and frightening time in my 55 years on this rock. It is time for a results-oriented government, not a government where the primary objective is to implement a political ideology.

I saw one guy on the tube today screaming that they are disenfranchised, and the candidate with the most votes should be the winner. Been hearing that a lot lately, and it is about the most stupid, half-witted thing to say. If the most votes decided the winner, California, New York and Illinois would always decide who is President. If I were a lefty, I'd love that, because those states are hopelessly liberal.

We are not a democracy. We are a democratic-republic. Here's why:

A pure democracy is majority rules, which is often referred to as mob rule. Let's say we have three people, Andy, Bob and Carl. They are hopelessly stranded on a mountain in a massive blizzard. They have no way of communicating out. No phones, no two-way radios, nothing. After a couple of days, it occurs to them that they will die of starvation because they ran out of food, and still no hope of being rescued.

They decide that one of them will have to die so the other two can eat him. Carl says he and Bob should eat Andy. "Oh no," shouts Andy. "We should eat Carl." So the three of them voted. Andy voted to eat Carl. Bob jumped in and said yes, we'll eat Carl. Carl voted that Andy be eaten.

So it was 2-1 that Carl be eaten. So Andy and Bob killed Carl and ate him.

Do you see the problem here? Do you see why this doesn't work? The mob decided that Carl was to be eaten, so he was killed. Sucks to be Carl.

If the President was determined with mob rule, the same three liberal states would always determine who the President will be. The other 47 states will have no say whatsoever. Hence the President would always be a Democrat.

Not going to happen.

Perhaps the most incredible thing is these liberal kooks think a lying, corrupt criminal who gave away state secrets and perjured herself before congress would be preferred over Trump. Really? Me thinks many of these people have their heads stuck up their a#@%$.
