11:29Now PlayingDave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to author, lawyer, and Electoral College expert Tara Ross about the United States Constitution and what most Americans get wrong about it in regard to states rights vs the rights of the federal government. She also discusses that one of the main assumptions of the founding fathers was that citizens would be given a clear education in American History to understand the principles behind the government and the dangers of relying on the federal government instead of your state. And that for us to understand the structure of our government requires us to know the federalist papers but also the anti-federalist papers. She also discusses why we need the Electoral College. According to Tara Ross the Electoral College is essential because it helps preserve our republic of diverse states from a tyranny of the majority. There are beginning to be more people trying to get rid of the Electoral College, and instead have a majority-rule affair where the President is chosen by a national popular vote. So It’s more important than ever to understand what the Electoral College is and why America uses it to elect its presidents.
