Wow I really want dinosaurs back <| sep |> Why should 51 % of the people not control 51 % of the vote ? How can you claim 1 person 1 vote when that is literally not the case . Not to mention that many people including you are talking bout how it would cause candidates to focus on only a few places , however this year I didn ' t see much campaigning in Arkansas this year . The fact of the matter is that current campaigns only hit a select few states anyway so the well they would only bother with the places with the largest audience rings pretty hollow to me when the other side of it is You can ' t claim everyone is equal when some people have 4 times the voting power . I mean how do you reconcile the idea that all men are created equal while simultaneously believing that people living in rural areas should have significantly more political power than those in cities ?
