Debating the validity of the Electoral College
The Electoral College has delivered five popular vote losers to the presidency - two in this century alone. The system doesn’t work, and lawmakers have been trying - and failing - to amend or abolish it since its inception. Today, most Americans are in favor of a popular vote system - if we can change the status quo. Akhil Reed Amar, a Supreme Court-cited constitutional scholar and Sterling Professor of Law and Political Science at Yale University, joins Ali Velshi to discuss how we might move away from an elector-style federalist system towards something that, perhaps, reflects a fuller sense of democratic participation. » Subscribe to MSNBC: https://ift.tt/aI5K6tT Follow MSNBC Show Blogs MaddowBlog: https://ift.tt/seJDFCQ ReidOut Blog: https://ift.tt/4LZHKyl MSNBC delivers breaking news, in-depth analysis of politics headlines, as well as commentary and informed perspectives.
