B!S! What we have to do is outlaw the Electoral College and have a few more parties in the process.Teach a class in "Problems of Democracy",this use to be taught to kids back in the 60s, a class that got us all so involved in the process we protested everything spoon fed to us by the Gov't & the media & changed the world.Thats why they don't teach it any more.Election day should be a national holiday so more than 1/3 of the population CAN vote.The only spoilers are the two major parties!

In New Zealand we use this method to elect Local Government officials. We use Mixed Member Proportional to elect our parliament members

"this system is missing a ''none of the above'' box."

Australia was also the first country to adopt this method except we call preferential voting. We also have a really complicated system of proportional representation for the senate which means a more accurate representation of different policies.

Besides using words like "whiny," and "moron," please actually state your view. I don't understand how this video is misleading.

Thanks for making this video! This is one of my biggest issues for a long time, but never seems to make waves. I think this is mostly because those in power don't really benefit from it very much. Additionally, it's more rational than emotional, and people don't like to get bored, they'd rather feel reactionary around "homos getting married," or "baby killing," or rally around other charged issues than one that's simply fair, but not very dramatic.

makes sense, but we can't afford it now. The government would spend billions to make this thousands dollar system. :(
