Former Republican Maine Governor Paul LePage has once again lived up to his reputation. Claims that those looking to reform the electoral college are doing so to silence "white people".

Why else would they want to import millions of poor, illiterate 3rd worlders?

i think he's as wacky as ever. Getting rid of the electoral college would silence rural voices, regardless of color. The majority of rural people may be white, but this isn't about race.

Well it’s the mission statement of the Republican Party to guard the interest of whites.

So this should come as no surprise.

It's not the Electoral college that worries them - -

The utter collapse of the New World Order follows after people wake up and withdraw consent from socialism / collectivism (FICA), from usury (banking and investing), and from submission to the government (as citizens).

Once people restore their endowed rights, and cease exercising taxable privileges, they are relieved of the financial burdens to fund profligate government, and its bureaucracy, as well as the skim taken by the Creditor. In many cases, it will be like doubling of spendable income.

But such actions require that Americans read their own laws - a task that few will undertake. Thus the Elite are confident in their control over the (m)asses.

See: Declaration of Independence (1776)

I was assuming that it would have been a Black politician that said that. Instead, it was another White person.

What about voter ID? Is that about race?

Nope. Don't care how many people cry that it is.

AND......on the flip side, it's the mission of the democrats to keep as many blacks voting democrat, election after election after election. Keep them dependent on government handouts, and keep them in line.
