Trying to build viable third parties by voting for them in presidential elections is like trying to build a third door in your house by repeatedly walking into the wall where you want the door to be. (self.showerthoughts)

Well I'd say it's still pretty bad with the super delegates and such. But yeah it's runoff system of sorts and people should pay more attention to it.

But a lot of the "system is broken" angst comes from people being not happy over who the majority of people vote for. But that's just democracy, baby.

But the Electoral College, yeah that shit is broken.
