@Blackoutsombra@WilliamWolfe Sorry, but the Immigration Act was probably one of the most anti-American pieces of legislation in our nations history.
It's intent was simple, and totally contrary to the Declaration of Independance and the Constitution as it was a thinnly veiled anti-Catholic, anti-Semetic law
@Dr_TheHistories Conversely, seven COUNTIES could in theory have enough votes to win the popular vote, technically disenfranchising the rest of the nation.
All this said, this forget a simple fact: as a republic, the states, and not the electorate elect the president.
READ THE CONSTITUTION!
@neilyoshikawa@Rainmaker1973 Not True, many have.
For example, the ability to mass produce penecillin was discovered here, and the process was immediately made available licence free, due up its life saving capabilities.
@BadRedWolf@Rainmaker1973 Toyota developed the CR code to handle internal inventory and released the patent for the world to use, as they not want to destrsct themselves from their core business.
