Let's be real honest people:

Do you really think this nation would be around long enough to see such reform happen?
The Electoral College would not survive if America does not.

It isn't called reform if everybody is dead Lewis.

Unless you're a Nazi Fascist.

Who said everybody would be dead? The Electoral College will be abolished when the government of Mexico annexes Aztlan outright and imposes martial law over the Outer Territories.

When was the last time the Head of State was elected in Britain?  If we had a parliamentary system instead of a presidential system, third parties would be quite likely. 

You're mixing up two things that don't relate to each other:

systems of government and election systems.

No, he's mixing up two things that relate strongly to each other and should not looked at in isolation.
