Bush would have campaigned differently under a winner take all system and might have won that way as well. A handful of visits to New York and California might have been enough to do it.

The founders put the system in place for a reason. One of the two changes discussed in the article is constitutional because it is already done in a couple of states. The other, and winner take all approach require constitutional amendments. The last amendment that dealt with the electoral process gave us Senators who are cater more to their party than their state. How’s that working out for ya?
