Grace Hendrix's An Arcane Electoral College: Rebuttal

I really enjoy reading your opinions and I have to say I was hoping that your commentary on An Arcane Electoral College (http://americanlibertylifeandhappiness.blogspot.com/) was going to change the way I currently feel about the Electoral College, however, it did not and I am still in disagreement with you. I definitely think the Electoral College process should at least be revised if not eliminated all together.
You are absolutely correct about the founding fathers’ way of thinking for the foundation of America and it “made” so much sense-to them, especially when more than half the country was not allowed to vote to begin with. When all of the attributes of our United States Government were being formed, it clearly was not a safeguard against tyranny of the majority but a protection for the minority that was voting. Our government set it self up so that it not only would be very stagnant, but also depend on very few to keep it afloat. And that has turned the government we know today into a lot like the “Factionist” state in which Maddison spoke against. How can we trust the integrity or wisdom of these so called representatives when their motives have not only become mechanical, but the way in which that machine operates is corrupt to its very core? How can we trust representatives that are influenced by whom ever has the largest purse? I do not believe that we can, I believe the few states that have laws in place to force the Electorals to vote as they wish, is a step toward a new direction.
I do understand that most of the citizens with in the United States, do not care or even vote for a President when election comes around, however, the ones that do turn out to vote I believe do care and want their voices heard. It is a total sham that a nominee could be winning the popular vote, but lose the presidency, because of 270 electoral votes. Again I say maybe the founding fathers thought this was a perfect system in 1787, but in the twentieth century the world has evolved and this country needs to stop holding on to processes that clearly do not make logical sense just to show respect for age old politics.
