94. We don't have to be trapped into a 2 Party System

We really can push for this change and it would be a hell of lot easier I think, because even libertarians and evangelicals want it.

so, if evangelicals are a third of the electorate, repukes and repuke lites are about a third of the electorate, and progressives and Libertarians together make up about a third, that leaves about 2/3 thirds of the electorate who would be in favor of a constitutional amendment to abolish the Electoral College system and implement Proportional Representation.

No more whining about "Spoiler" candidates.
