The electors bit was absolutely about keeping the educated white elite in control . I don ' t really understand how you could argue this when the parties choose the electors and the popular vote chooses the way they vote . They ' re pretty racially diverse nowadays , from what I ' ve seen and if they aren ' t diverse enough you can lobby the ' white , smart people ' at the Democrats who can change it for you next time . I would argue is less important nowadays with the rise of globalization . Yes , people have been arguing that for forty years to the detriment of everyone outside the cultural hubs of America . That ' s really the whole point . <| sep |> Dak or Zeke have to win MVP , ROTY , or both this year . These guys are monsters !
