Good luck with that, poor babies.
Al Gore won the popular vote too.

    Yes!...exactly. There are still those that hear voices foreign to them, voices not their own and still some increasingly...have no voice at all for that inner conversation as I have discovered.

    Much of my work, as you know, is to create something that will reawaken the mind. It's really not far fetched and my hopes are that included will be the history and time tested thoughts of our ancestors.
    Many that have advanced their memes fail to include all the time tested truths in each preceding meme...you might surmise that if you have gotten around to "spiral dynamics".

    You might say that that "ancient voice" is very close to the surface in all humans. For some it is there all the time with god speaking to them. I consider the change away from that most of the time is due to an evolution of memes. Those contagious ideas sometimes go though parts of the society as with the meme that the election is somehow a pure democratic vote rather than the federalist republican vote system of the Constitution. As in biological evolution, some irrational memes will die out except for a few isolated minds that take a lifetime to die. They will be replaced by memes which are more rational where those who do not want to do a lot of thinking can do their cheering, patriotic acts, church work, and other everyday belonging activities. The human mind is not far from that primitive state where a new dark age within a large part of the society can begin again. The tooling up for that is nearly done in many of the school systems.

    Because they live in echo chambers which reinforces their belief that they are in the majority and are thus right. I believe they are projecting what they would do if they were in that position. They would sell out their principles in order to maintain their good standing within their peer groups. Their biggest fear is that they will fall afoul of what their friends deem proper mindthink. In other words, they are trying to shitshame these electors because they believe they share this same dynamic within their (the electors) lives.

    They call themselves the "Democratic Party". That is both grammatically and factually wrong. It's bad grammar and they don't believe in democracy.

    But they forget one thing. Isn't it a fact that only a loyal Party member ever gets nominated to a slate of elector-candidates? How could they possibly think a Donald Trump elector would take their bribe?

    Who knew?
    So if it's possible to overturn a Presidential Election by petition, I want to start one that would overturn Obama's election retroactively and reverse all of the damage he has done.

    Another reason I am disappointed with our education system. We don't teach our children how and why the government was set up the way it is by our Founders. They didn't want expediency because a decision made in haste is usually a poor decision based on little fact. The Electoral College was a stop gap to prevent a more populous urban area having complete sway over the lower populated rural areas by shear numbers (a Presidential candidate in a pure democracy would only have to campaign in the urban centers to win). It is also a recognition of States rights over the Federal by allowing each state to have a proportional say in the election of the President.

    I wonder if Hillary is ehind this petition, I can't get her comment at her speech out of my head: we will break the glass ceiling, we will have a woman president, "Maybe sooner than you think!" Sound ominous? I really do not trust this woman at all. Lock her up - in the nut house where she really belongs! I am sick to death of millennials, they live in a la la land, with Hillary has a mommy figure (Mommy Dearest really).

    I've had a great laugh at the expense of teeth-gnashing liberal students at my alma mater, pointing out that their precious university itself teaches the very techniques that Trump used with great effect to secure the needed electoral college votes.

    They want it delivered to the electors in the Electoral College. There are only about half the states that require these electors to vote for the winner of the state. And the fines are quite negligible and the petition creators have promised that the Democrats would be quite willing to pay it for any rogue voter who helped to get Hillary into the White House.

    The sensitive snowflakes need to go to their safe spaces. And as soon as they are in them, would someone please turn up the thermostats.

    I read somewhere that I skimmed over yesterday that some left coast students want to be excused from exams due to being too upset over the election.
    Seems I read or heard something like that before.

    I just love how the rules don't apply to these people. The reverse case would be all over the media and ridiculed.

    The popular vote difference across the country is not that great. I think it may be closely related to number the never trumpers influence circles across the country. For the no chance third party candidates that were running just to opposed Trump, I can say they were successful in that aspect but still lost. Had we not had that opposition, I believe we wouldn't have rioting, but for the usual disgruntles. The media has been fueling rioters with hatred statements from their guest and tv hosts. I'm still waiting for the celebs that promised to leave to start boarding planes. May I suggest Venezuela? I'm sure they would like celebrities telling them how to live and vote.

    The first time Hillary ran she identified herself as a progressive. So this time around she coulda burned her house down faster by saying "Yes, a progressive is a globalist socialist and so I'm stacking the Supreme Court to shred that silly Constitution."
    Just sayin'. That's what she was up to anyways.

    As far as the college protestors go, instead of giving them a couple of days off to get over the trauma of Trump being elected they should be telling them, "This is life. If you can't handle life's ups and downs then you do not belong in college. So, go back to the sandbox with the rest of the children."

    The surprising fact, about the "faithless elector" was that he is an Indian. Most of them vote Demoncrat, so I was shocked to see a decision like this coming from that particular corner.

    Is there any way Clinton could've burned her own house down, any faster? The mind boggles.

    There's lots and lots and lots of those little things where Hillary's concerned.
    Such as lots of broken laws that would send just about anyone else to a federal pen forever.

    There's always that question of who may be behind the curtain stirring the pot.
    This morning I've already read in my email a claim that these demonstrations are not spontaneous but are bought and paid for by George Soros.
    In photos and news videos I've looked for matching manufactured signs that's always a tip off about that but I haven't seen any.
    So maybe these angry snowflake eruptions are indeed spontaneous due to crappy socialist slanted educations.
    Maybe, maybe. There are always leaders who get the balls rolling here and there.
    Me dino wonders if they all know each other.
