[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that so many on this forum do not understand that the structure of this country was set up as a republic and not a democracy is troubling. We have a House that represents the population. California has much more representation than Alaska. It is about balancing. Otherwise, only the large metropolitan cities: especiallly NYC, LA, and Chicago would be making deisions for all of us.[/quote] I agree with this in concept although something like a Trump bothers me. I see the opposite happening in India, for example, where the majority party decides everything. The Southern states (plus a couple of western states) have a minority in terms of population essentially fund the rest of the country and yet are marginalized when it comes to policies, language, etc. We don't want something like that happening here... nor do we want a President elected based on a minority vote (as Trump would have if he had won).[/quote]
