No I don't have to read how the electoral college works, I understand it too
well, I just don't believe it is the proper way to conduct an election of
this magnitude.  It may  have been necessary at one point in time, but I
feel it has passed it's prime and needs to be altered.

You are wrong, in a very big way. First of, this isn't a democracy, 
it's a republic. Second, you need to study in detail how the 
electoral college works and learn something about "faithless 
electors". 

Btw Marc, you're breaking my heart. Regular gas in CA is almost 
$2.45/gallon and climbing. I won't even tell you what I pay for avgas
and jet fuel.
