Thank you for the best explanation of the inherent injustice of the Electoral College I have seen--which was initiated by men in the Constitutional Convention representing slave states to help them protect slavery from the majority, who were against it (though almost all of those who were against slavery did still believe that people of African origin/heritage were inherently inferior to people of European heritage/origin and were most certainly against granting them all rights pursuant to citizenship, such as voting or running for elected office).
