End around the electoral college

[SQUEE]

42. Playing the long game

I have faith that our general creed of fairness and equality will overcome the bullshit ideas of the conservative Right, and their faerie tale of American "Bootstrap-ism".
Within a generation Texas will go blue, and my neighbors here in the bible belt will lose thier death grip on the Republican presidential platform. The "Solid South" as an idea or voting block will become irrellavant to the election of POTUS. This will mean reproductive rights and marriage equality will become a non issue, and the GOP will have nothing but failed voodoo economics as a platform. And of course their veiled racism and classism will have lost a great deal of its power as we become more and more homogenized via media exposure and the flow of industrial jobs south. More industry in the south will lead to a greater force of skilled workers, who will organize..
Time is on our side, and I know it is hard at this moment to see, but the Left is about the future and progress.
The EC will become our greatest weapon if we canplay the long game and realize that demographics IS destiny.
