Mueller's favorite place to pray (written about in "Prophet's Way"), and the roof of the room where the Last Supper is reputed to have happened.
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a literary descendent of Ben Franklin and Tom Paine. His unflinching observations and deep passion inspire us to explore contemporary culture, politics, and economics; challenge us to face the facts of the societies we are creating; and empower us to demand a better world for our children and grandchildren."
Hey Thom, the issue that supporters of the electoral college have is that they believe the power of the majority in our REPUBLIC, must be balanced by the MINORITY voice. In this case the MINORITY voice, are the voices not on the coasts of the U.S, but the mid west, etc. That's the point they are trying to make as to why the electoral college should exist. Otherwise, you get what I believe Lani Guinier labeled, rule by tyranny, though she was not speaking to the electoral college, the issue of contention is similar. Anyway, voter suppression may be the big crime that the supporters of the electoral college should be pushed to comment on, since, the electoral college may not be going anywhere.
