Thank you Don. This is the first meaningful thing I've read about the 2020 Presidential election. I honestly don't care who got the most votes, who cheated, what other allegations are circulating, etc. I care whether the constitutional contract was observed. All else is just so much gossip and partisan bickering.

Thanks Bob, that is why I wrote the article. You recall what "back in the day" was called GIGO (garbage in, garbage out), developed by the computer gurus to indicate that if you put garbage into the computer you will get garbage out of the computer. It was not to be the answer to all things. So we need to be careful with AI (article intelligence) because anyone smart enough to think about it would realize that it is artificial, meaning no prior experiences or education would factor into the resuls. Why wouldn't that be dangerous? Because as we know "those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it". Our Constitution was developed by well educated men who knew the lessons of history and wanted to try to avoid them being repeated. They did a marvelous job and we need to adhere to the document unless we collectively decide, using "real" intelligence" that something need changing, then it can be changed by amendment under Article V.

Cheney and Pence rubber-stamped tyrants. :(
