Hardback. Zustand: Good. This study examines how the Electoral College actually works, how it is supposed to work, and how it might be reformed. Robert Hardaway first looks at the Constitutional Convention, the Twelfth Amendment, and historical elections where the Electoral College has come into play, providing the historical background to the present-day College. Next he examines the electors themselves--how they are chosen in the states and the laws relating to the obligations of electors in casting their votes. The election of the president and vice president by the House of Representatives is also examined. Finally, Hardaway discusses and analyzes the proposed reforms to the Electoral College, including those before the Congress at present. Professor Hardaway's book makes a strong case for the preservation of the federalist principles incorporated into the constitutional framers' plan for election of the president of the United States. The book richly documents its case with examples from past elections, while at the same time providing the reader with all information needed to make an independent judgment.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The 2016 election caused many pundits and citizens alike to decry the Electoral College. This book explains the dangerous and unconstitutional implications of the National Popular Vote Bill, which is quietly passing in state houses across the nation.Ever since the Founding Fathers created the Electoral College, Congress has tried to overturn it. The latest attempt is taking place not in Congress, but in state legislatures around the country, where a well-financed campaign by a private California group calling itself "National Popular Vote" (NPV) is proposing an "interstate compact" to circumvent the process for amending the U.S. Constitution. If adopted by states representing a majority of electoral votes, the signatory states would bind themselves to ignore the popular votes within their respective states, and instead allocate their electoral votes to the candidate whom the media proclaimed to be the "national popular vote" winner. In this new history of the Electoral College, law professor Robert M. Hardaway lays bare the constitutional loopholes that have allowed this movement to succeed in states representing approximately half the electoral votes necessary to purportedly bind those states to ignore the popular vote of the people within their respective states. The presentation of the information in this book to state legislatures considering the compact, resulted in complete reversal of preconceived perceptions about how presidential elections should be conducted.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When beautiful and idealistic law student Judy Alexander signs up for the Exoneration Clinic at a financially challenged law school in mid-town Manhattan, she has hopes of investigating and righting wrongful convictions. Instead, she is drawn into a media-hyped case in Texas in which a man accused of murder declines all legal assistance and offers to plead guilty--but only in exchange for being sentenced to death. Convinced of his innocence, Judy follows leads which lead first to Catalina Island off the coast of California, and then inexorably to a nineteen year old cold case in which a young girl mysteriously disappeared without a trace while visiting the iconic French landmark of Mont St. Michel, an ancient medieval monastery atop an isolated island which was occupied by a contingent of Nazi soldiers during World War II.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the early afternoon of July 25, 2000, an Air France Concorde take off from Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris struck a nine inch metal strip on the runway. Seventeen seconds later, the world's only supersonic passenger airliner, the preferred transport of royalty and celebrities and capable of flying faster than a speeding bullet, careened out of control and crashed, killing in a ball of fire all 109 terrified men, women, children and crew on board. Now twenty years later, law graduate Judy Alexander attempts to solve a recent puzzling and notorious murder and follows clues which lead her to revisit the events of the Concorde tragedy. In her quest for justice she much ask herself the existential question first posed by Thornton Wilder in his Pulitzer Prize winning novel The Bridge of San Luis Rey. Is there a direction and meaning in lives beyond the individual's own will.…
