Episode Synopsis

Why do we have the electoral college? Listen in on the Constitutional Convention debate, the Federalist Papers and related materials. Learn about its original defects as revealed in the elections of 1796 and 1800, and how the 12th Amendment fixed some of those issues. Hear from Madison, Wilson, and many Founding Fathers, and how the system affects our Presidential elections to this day and efforts to reform it. Produced by Patriot Week - visit PatriotWeek.org. Also check out the upcoming Patrick Henry Dinner at PatriotWeek.org and Judge Warren’s book at www.AmericasSurvivalGuide.com. Remastered.
