The Electoral college aims to represent entire states and provide votes based off of population sizes, it does not only depend on the electorates opinions.

The smaller areas and states would be under represented and presidents would only appeal to states like California that hold the majority if votes

I think that the Electoral College is important and should be well kept because its important to have the right to vote, to choose a person that has a reason to run for the country for great goals they give instead of pointing out bad bias.

The problem with that is that anyone, including people who are not eligible or qualified to run, will try to run just because they have many followers.

The American Population is not enlightened enough to give a reliable rationale on why they chose the president, especially with new empty promises that are constantly thrown their way.

And where is most of the american population concentrated? Cities like NYC, LA, Chicago, etc. National elections are not about the individual, its about the collective. It's not about the worth of the individual's vote, its about the worth of the collective vote of the community. And in a popular vote, the collective vote of the cities would drastically outpower the collective vote of rural communities. And it's almost never near 50/50, it's usually 70/30 or even 75/25 in these areas. Wyoming and West Virginia doesn't have any big cities, almost all rural areas with…  Read more some small towns, and their vote is around 70/30. Maryland and Massachusetts have many urban and suburban areas in a relatively small area leaving little room for rural communities, and vote heavily democratic.
