WAY BACK in the Newt years the Republicans realized that control of STATE houses would help them control the WHITE house.
While not keeping control of the White House, their gerrymandering has certainly kept things on a very nasty edge regarding the differential between PUBLIC support and VOTING support.
When 37% of the population is still controlling the budget and programs that are proposed by the President, SOMETHING IS WRONG - and, as the OP stated, the SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE FIXED!!!!
