Majority rule.
Lets pretend for a minute that our system of electing the president in the U.S. is not the electoral college.
If less then 50 percent of eligible voters vote. Then the president is really elected by a majority of the minority.
It has been my observation that the majority rarely rules, ever, in any system.
