TYRANNY OF THE MAJORITY
Chris discusses a new story about the Colorado Senate that has passed a bill designed to undermine the electoral college, in the wake of the 2016 election. The democrats are still raging about the idea that Hillary supposedly won the popular vote, and so they are looking for a way to change the system. But what was the original purpose of the electoral college, and how does it protect the interests of all Americans? Also discussed is the phrase “tyranny of the majority” and how it is used historically.
