we have for state population in the Legislative branch (and why our
legislative branch is so comparatively complex), but not (I think) in the
Executive branch.
Just my opinion. but then I'm a closet globalist at heart.

Exactly. I am not sure that I agree with the argument, but that is the
way I understand it. Take New Mexico for example; it has very specific
concerns that are quite different from Florida's. I mean, any of you
have a position on the BIA's handling of oil revenue? WIPP? CLEAR?
White Sands?
And New Mexico has far far less population than Florida, so let's face
it, it would matter a lot less in the *current* election, where it is
considered one of the states that matter, if we were going on one man
one vote.
I am not sure what I think on this issue, personally. I can see that
there is value in forcing politicians to focus on individual states as
states with their individual issues with the federal government.
