The First Step to Fixing the Electoral College | Robert Reich (video)

 



ezs note:  I had considered a number of ways that the silliness of the Electoral College system could be abolished, but Robert Reich's idea seems more practical, and has already gained some traction by having a number of states adopted the idea.  See the video, and if you agree, contact your state representative and state senator and urge them to vote for the bill.  Thanks.

ezs note:  I ran across Rev. Ed Trevors, who gave me a breath of fresh air.  Unfortunately, most of what passes off as 'Christianity' is pure BS. Fortunately, though, Ed saves the day. I may not see every line from side to side (he is a [real] Christian, I am a Baha'i), but, geez, this guy is good. I'll do my bit to promote him. 

By the way, if you're free, Ed broadcasts live on 1) most Saturday nights at 7:30 pm and 2) most Wednesday afternoons at 2:00 pm (Eastern time). (other time zones will vary) If you click on in the times indicated. you'll see a little bloggette in the upper right corner indicating "Church Without Walls" and today's date.  Click in this area, and with luck, you'll be in!  The correct address will be:

Yeah, the trolls are at it again...

 


Troll (W. G. Collingwood, artist)

ezs note:  This afternoon, I discovered (quite unpleasantly) that Facebook had removed my post.  I can't say for certain, but I suspect that a MAGA person had his widdle feelings hurt by my postings critical of Donald Trump.  I put in a response, but you can help by contacting Facebook and letting them know that Emily's Virtual Rocket is legitamately  keeping you informed, and should not be bothered by such cretins.  Thanks.
