Plenty of Americans find those things “weird”. Myself, for instance.
It’s hard to affect change with just the two corrupt parties, with one being center-right and the other being far-right, and a voting system that keeps it that way. At least ranked-choice voting for some elections (reducing the pressure maintaining the two-party system) is up for a vote in my state soon.
I never do random drive by grammar replies, but since you put it in your edit: affect is a verb and effect is a noun usually but the way you used it needs the verb form of effect, meaning “to bring something into being/existence”. So essentially you’re saying it’s difficult to create change in the two parties.
Note that affect can also be a noun (and is pronounced differently than the verb, with the emphasis on the first syllable), referring to someone’s demeanor. You normally see it when talking about psychology.
I would burn the entirety of Ohio down in order to have more parties, I hate voting for the lesser of two evils, I’ve been doing it my whole life. Hardly feels like a democracy.
You know Donald Trump lost the 2016 popular vote, and George Bush lost the 2000 popular vote? The last republican president to win the popular vote was George HW Bush in 1989 lol.
I’d go into the rest of the points, but you get it. It’s a country for the rich
If we can’t get rid of the electoral college entirely, electors should at least be proportional. For example, if Kamala Harris gets 25% of a state’s votes and Trump gets 74%, then Harris should get 25% of the electors from that state (instead of zero).
Yah believe me if you had 6 or 8 you will still be voting for the lesser of two evils and you will spend your days trying to understand the differences…
Sorry to be honest, but this is my view…
Voting between two parties, and then getting whatever the “electors” pick. All the while, thinking they live under the biggest democracy of the world.
Having all sorts of inhuman behaviors, like robbing childs from immigrants.
Child marriage.
Having lots of weapons in the country but all wars outside.
Mmm… What else? Ah, prisoners are slaves.

Well, thank you, I learned something today! Damn you, English! shakes fist (the language, not the Amish term for non-Amish people)

George W Bush won the popular vote in 2004
You are very right, my bad. To be totally fair, by .7%. I’ll edit!

Why do you say that?
