Obviously the electoral college needs to be abolished but instituting de jure racism clearly is not the answer.
The best chance for eliminating the electoral college is the popular vote compact.
But then you have majority rule --- mob rule --- that that the founders wanted to prevent, the little guy from not having a voice.
Here is something to explore:
"Ranked-choice voting is an electoral system that allows people to vote for multiple candidates, in order of preference. Instead of just choosing who you want to win, you fill out the ballot saying who is your first choice, second choice, or third choice (or more as needed) for each position."

Yet another con confusing direct democracy (mob rule) with popular vote for a representative leader.

The voting system is the only democratic thing that is done in this country as we are nation built on laws --- a Republic and you want to do what with it?
PS: enact yet another way the little guy can't get a leg up. good con.
There is already de facto discrimination against whites so I don't know what else they want. South African style land and wealth confiscation? That sure ended up well for them over there
