    No. The US has not popular vote at the federal level, and the popular vote has no meaning within our Constitution. The majority is decided in the electoral college, not the popular vote.

      Yes, which means the president is often selected by the minority of the voters against the will of the majority.

      You know, like in a some dictatorships. In Soviet Union for example the state leader was selected by politburo members.
