Abolishing the Electoral College is not a ridiculous idea but a perfectly valid point, and at least rebut it more than with a 'lol'

YES. The Electoral College should be abolished. It is an archaic 18th century system designed to protect slave states and it distorts the will of the people and means only a few swing states get the focus and not the needs of the entire nation. This is not a Democratic issue or Republican issue, it is the right thing to do. In 2012 Romney could have won the popular vote by over 1% and Obama still would have won the Electoral College. Whoever gets the most support should win, it is only right and fair.
