I hope and assume this isn't ASB, but invoke them if you must.
But what if the US Electoral College was a literal College?
The Electors go there to study political science and other subjects and, in theory, use their knowledge to choose the best candidates for President and Vice-President.
Of course the POD is the 1780s when the Constitution is being written. Is this workable?
Then the former Presidents and other members of previous administrations become professors and lecturers at this college.
