In the document, Paul Krassner talks about the history of US elections and the electoral college system. He mentions that George Bush was elected president in 2000 due to the electoral college, while Al Gore won the national popular vote. Hillary Clinton announced plans to get rid of the electoral college as a senator but did not follow through on her promise when asked about it later. In 2016, Donald Trump was elected president based on the electoral college despite losing the popular vote to Hillary Clinton by "more than three million" individuals. Paul Krassner also mentions Vladimir Putin's role in the US election and the deaths of journalists at his hands.
