Cursitor Doom only takes the Daily Mail seriously, and expects it to be backed up by Russia Today. The Beano was written for children.
The kind of adult who trusts the Daily Mail and Russia Today knows exactly what kind of misinformation they want, and they can rely of getting it - the reality that these \"news organisations\" pretend to be reporting isn\'t allowed to get in the way of them giving people like Cursitor Doom the message they want to hear.

Presenting him with factual news reports is futile - they aren\'t going to deliver the kind of nonsense that he\'s addicted to.

And therefore must be classed as a foreigner.

Was the result the wrong one for you?

Perhaps eliminating the electoral college in favor of a popular vote selecting our president will allow for a more fair election? It shouldn\'t come down to a relative handful of votes in a few narrow state races to select a new President.

Doesn\'t everyone agree?

While you are at it, you could perhaps have a single national set of
rules for the national election.

Apparently not. Many Americans apparently think that the Constitution
has the same status as stone tablets handed down personally by God.
They are blissfully unaware of the different contexts involved - that a
solution designed two hundred years ago might have been a good idea two
hundred years ago, but is inappropriate now.

(The electoral college system was invented because there was no way for
the general populace to know much about the candidates - so you elected
responsible people who would go to Washington, meet the candidates, and
pick one for you. Mass media was unknown at the time.)
