Should the Electoral College Be Changed? (2609)Should the Electoral College Be Changed? (2609)
Is the Electoral College out of date? Is it the best “process” for electing  a President?
Dennis McCuistion & Jim Falk

Joining hosts Dennis McCuistion and Jim Falk is Cal Jillson, PhD, Professor of Political Science, Southern Methodist University and the author of American Government.

 
The conversation focuses on how and why the electoral college was put into place and whether it is still a valid process to use in determining our next president.
 
The history is ironic. In the constitutional convention of 1777, our founding fathers were concerned about how a President should  be elected and whether the common man had the savvy to elect a president.

Join us to review how the college decides on our next president;  most especially critical as we go into a new election with all  its political outcomes.
