JUST A FUN FACT on this 4th of July !!!

[The big package]

Right before the war of 1812 the British were having problems with France they stole some of our soldiers made them POWs and made them work on their British warships that along with the war of 1812 was the reason for the creation of the national anthem . So when it talks about slaves in the third part of the national anthem (the part that Gwen Berry is referring to )It is referring to the white soldiers that were taken and put on British warships (POWS) People should read history and textbooks before they spew off nonsense to the world . It makes our country look very stupid !!!

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

Unless you're black. Then you can be owned by another human being.

Where did the Declaration of Independence say blacks can be owned? You might want to read it again stable genius.

Running in a race that white people set up. Play the game for the glory. Don't compete would be more consistent.

There was a Civil War, a war between States, to rectify in part this (worldwide) common practice. No other nation in the history of the world have given their sons lives to abolish slavery, only in America.

The current democrat party treats negroid Americans as second class, inferior to lighter pigmentations.

I offer the DOJ lawsuit against the State of Georgia as proof.

Only the ignorant Negro cannot obtain identification to vote, only the ignorant Negro is not intelligent enough to bring food or water (any beverage, even if a 40) if voting requires standing in a line for any extended period.

That is an example of the current day view of "all men are created equal" in the democrat hemisphere.

The GOp is all about voter suppression. They can never win the popular vote so they are on to plan B.

No we just want to suppress the ignorant negro that can't get a picture id or feed and water themselves.
At least that is what democrat Meritless Garland is serving.

Popular vote means nothing in a Presidential election. There would be no nation , no United States with popular vote election for President, the Constitution would never have been drafted under those terms.

Get you head out of your rear end.

There might have been a few Quakers but they did not believe in Wars and killing other people.
Quakers in the Civil War seems like an inherently contradictory idea; the Society of Friends practices pacifism and nonviolence, and, for many, putting money or resources toward war efforts goes against the faith. ... Friends had to decide which was the greater sin: violence or slavery.
Quaker military service in the Civil War is perhaps the most glaring oversight by scholars of that great conflict. A brief review of the historical literature is illustrative. In The Quiet Rebels, Margaret H. Bacon states that only two or three hundred Quakers enlisted in the entire Union Army.

Is that what they teach you in schools today?

The Electoral College is in the Constitution in Article 2, Section 1, and in the 12th Amendment.

Hate to point this out but that was not a reason!

I don't want to call you an uninformed, ignorant, Constitutional illiterate so I will let Article II Section 1 of the US Constitution speak for itself.

Article II​

Primary tabs​

Section 1.​

The executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his office during the term of four years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same term, be elected, as follows:
Each state shall appoint, in such manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a number of electors, equal to the whole number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or person holding an office of trust or profit under the United States, shall be appointed an elector.
The electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for two persons, of whom one at least shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves. And they shall make a list of all the persons voted for, and of the number of votes for each; which list they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate. The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates, and the votes shall then be counted. The person having the greatest number of votes shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of electors appointed; and if there be more than one who have such majority, and have an equal number of votes, then the House of Representatives shall immediately choose by ballot one of them for President; and if no person have a majority, then from the five highest on the list the said House shall in like manner choose the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by States, the representation from each state having one vote; A quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. In every case, after the choice of the President, the person having the greatest number of votes of the electors shall be the Vice President. But if there should remain two or more who have equal votes, the Senate shall choose from them by ballot the Vice President.
The Congress may determine the time of choosing the electors, and the day on which they shall give their votes; which day shall be the same throughout the United States.
No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States.
In case of the removal of the President from office, or of his death, resignation, or inability to discharge the powers and duties of the said office, the same shall devolve on the Vice President, and the Congress may by law provide for the case of removal, death, resignation or inability, both of the President and Vice President, declaring what officer shall then act as President, and such officer shall act accordingly, until the disability be removed, or a President shall be elected.
The President shall, at stated times, receive for his services, a compensation, which shall neither be increased nor diminished during the period for which he shall have been elected, and he shall not receive within that period any other emolument from the United States, or any of them.
Before he enter on the execution of his office, he shall take the following oath or affirmation:--"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Don't you think it's a bit hypocritical that the Democrats were so outraged that the Russians were tampering with our elections (or at least that's what they say with no actual proof ) but they're okay with people coming across the border from other countries and then will be able to vote in our elections ? I'm not sure what the difference is !!!

The term “electoral college” does not appear in the Constitution.

 

[Box Ox]

The term “electoral college” does not appear in the Constitution.

Does that even matter? The procedure is outlined by Article II.
