A Mind is a
Terrible Thing to Waste
As we all know Perth Amboy made the list of least educated cities in New Jersey according to the U.S. Census Bureau in 2018. The Census Bureau reported Perth Amboy lacks access for higher education. It also said Perth Amboy was rated number #5 on the list and has a 14.2% with Bachelor or higher and 4.1% with a Graduate or Professional Degree. Now, those School Board Members know this – “TRUST ME” and I’ll bet those School Board Members will tell us “We’re working on this problem!” I always said, “A mind is a terrible thing to waste.”

Abolish the Electoral College
In 1992 William Clinton was elected President with 43% of the popular vote. Who complained then?
In parliamentary systems voters elect a representative, and the representatives elect a Premier. It is possible to elect someone whose total popular vote for representatives was not a majority. But it would be anti-democratic to override the votes of the representatives. With multiple candidates it is likely the winner will not have majority of popular votes. This system limits the harm done by any voting irregularities to one district. Article II Section 1 has the original intent.
Those who want a different system can petition for a change, but this will need a super majority of the states to agree. Is this feasible?
What is needed is an amendment to ban anyone over age 65 from becoming President; this will prevent senility and its poor judgment.
