That barely existed as a system because it didn't work well in practice. It was amended in 1804, there were only 3 presidents elected that way, Jefferson was in office when it was ratified.

Interesting, thank you.

Imagine what difference that would have made over the years.

which is technically a uniparty, since they do vote the same on some things most of the time. inaction against increasing the tax for corps and billionaires, after the gop had it cut, plus other things.

The original setup was basically a ranked choice system already. The top two vote getters were the president and vice president.

That was changed, ostensibly to "stop assassination" but like all good ideas, it had bad follow on effects.

That time they did. That’s once. The American voter has been doing this shit every time.

Let’s remember too that Sanders is an independent, not a Democrat, so they aren’t going to fund him willingly.

At the end of the day, their people still act and vote as a unit regardless of what noise is outside.

That’s the difference. Yes, there’s a lot of noise but sooner or later progressive voters or anyone who wants something decent is going to have to stand. That includes dealing with the voter suppression, one way or the other.
