Boortz has used the 2000 case Bush V. Gore and the SCOTUS decision to emphasize his case.
It is essentially:
The state (by which it is meant the state one lives in such as Alabama, in my case) decides how it will choose the president.
If it decides to use a popular vote then it cannot deny that vote based on race, sex, religious persuasion, as various amendments and court decisions have decided.
However, the state can legally decide to choose the president a different way if it wants, such as say, a flip of a coin.
There is no right to individually vote for the president ensconced in the Constitution (according to Boortz), although it is possible some states may give this right to its residents.
Now look, guys; I don't want to get in a pissing contest about this. I'm repeating Boortz's argument, which I suspect is right. However, maybe it is wrong. If you don't like it then please whine to Boortz. BTW you might want to hurry up as he's off the air January 20, 2013. He's retiring. That's right he;'s been in broadcasting 42 years and he's
OUTTA THERE early next year.
If you do call him up be prepared to be keelhauled, boiled in radio oil, rhetorically drawn and quartered, smeared, demeaned, insulted, and basically disrespected in a multitude of different ways.
Boortz is such a
pleasant personality ........
