Bogart, I've heard that projected out eventually the Electoral colllage system will fail because of population shifts and a real minority with the power of electing the president over a vast majority. How far out can we project state populations. What would the map look like in 2020, 2050 or even 2100. True many things might affect state populations by then but it will interesting to see. Especially when the Ogallala Fossil Aquafir becomes completely depleted (projected to happen sometime this century) This will make life pretty hard in Kansas Nebraska, and Oklahoma So these states will probably shrink in size relative to neighboring states.
I doubt the US will exist as we know it now to have to worry about that.
