Social justice book reviews
My views are my own.
I am voting third party in the 2024 presidential election. I have as little faith in the Democratic Party as I do in the Republican Party: none.
I am a pro-Palestine socialist. I am against genocide, capitalism, American imperialism, and Israeli apartheid.

I first encountered Jesse Wegman’s Let the People Pick the President: The Case for Abolishing the Electoral College on display at a Half Price Books store soon after the book was published in 2020. My first impression was feeling like the book was unnecessary. I had never heard anyone arguing in favor of the Electoral College, and honestly I didn’t know of anyone who really supported it. I certainly agreed with the title, that the College ought to be abolished, so I felt like reading a book to explain why would be a waste of time. I later changed my mind (granted, after the 2020 election had taken place) and decided that I wanted all the information to make sure my opinion on this debate was an informed one.
