    UPDATE: @Kieth says "Cal and NY would decide". Are there no GOP in those states? And, shouldn't the GOP work to give voters what they want?

    ===================

    I think it is time to do away with the electoral college. I think Congress should have term limits. 

    My thoughts are: 

    House of Representatives: Two terms of four years each. 

    Senate: Two terms of six years each.

    Steve:    For The USA’s 2016 presidential election, HILLARY CLINTON won the national, popular vote.   

    Meanwhile, trump cheated for the votes for the Electoral College.   The republican party’s elites RIGGED the votes for the Electoral College!   (I have proof!)   

    traitor trump actually was an ILLEGITIMATE president!!

    Nationwide popular vote for President, not by State. 

    Term limits? Definitely - Two terms for the House, maybe Three for the Senate. After 2 terms in the House, Representatives can run for Senate, but Senators cannot run for the House.

    Pelosi and her cronies are the best argument for congressional term limits.  The electoral college is still needed until we figure out a way to keep Democrats from cheating the elections.

    agree on the first question and a hard nay on the second. the electoral college gives all states weight. otherwise the only states that would need to vote would are NY, Cali, and Texas.

    I would agree with both your changes.  Both require changes to the Constitution.  While we're at it, let's fix the 2nd Amendment, too.

    Without the electoral college, California, Texas, and New York would decide who the president is. We need to end the lifetime pension that congressmen get as soon as they are voted out. Let them earn it when they reach retirement age.
