Which is why the constitution has an amendment process. It is difficult by design to make sure a supermajority is in favor before making changes to our basic governmental structure. That is a protection that has allowed our union to survive for so many generations.

Saying we should change the system for electing the president to make sure it isn’t allowing for a dominant minority isn’t tearing up the constitution. It’s trying to fix a 200+ year old document that has proven itself in need of some updating. The Framers even thought of that.

We’ve amended the constitution over two dozen times. The electoral college was created to protect slavery. That’s it. We either believe in democratic representative government or we don’t. You apparently think we shouldn’t.
