  1. That's not important. The Electoral College was created to guarantee no Southerner could become president. Electoral College members could name the person they wanted to win, not the person who won the election. A law had to be passed so they handed in the name of the political candidate who won. Presidential candidate Ross Perot found that out when he abandoned his successful campaign, because the Democrats and Republicans wouldn't let him win. George W. Bush and Bill Clinton stood there onstage smiling at him, as he described how new online off-shore businesses would become the sucking sound of jobs leaving America. Just imagine how different the United States would be if Ross Perot had his way as president.
