You read right, it is all the rage, we are tired of going to competitions and having to deal with this insanely unfair Karate Electoral College.\u00a0 The last competition I went to was so unfair, the vast majority of the people at the competition chose me as the winner.\u00a0 It was clear by the crowds reaction, by the energy in the room, even an electronic poll they were running (American Idol style) had me the clear winner.\u00a0 So what happened?\u00a0 Some judges ruled that my opponent won and I lost!\u00a0 That was the most unfair experience of my life and the crowd agreed.\u00a0 Wouldn’t you?\u00a0 Shouldn’t the most popular contestant win?\u00a0 Shouldn’t the people be able to choose the winner, I mean they are watching the fight, they know!!\u00a0 That is why we need to get rid of the Karate Electoral College!<\/p>\n
Alright that didn’t happen quiet that way.\u00a0 I am from a very small club, low budget, low body count.\u00a0 What chance do we have at a competition?\u00a0 Well if it is run fairly then a pretty good chance.\u00a0 I have been to both, fair and unfair competitions, they look the same from the outside, they look the same to the crowd.\u00a0 The illusion part is easy for the crowd, the contestants always know, but who do they complain to?<\/p>\n
Democracy sucks.\u00a0 The big clubs\/schools, with the 500 students win.\u00a0 The small clubs\/schools don’t have a voice.\u00a0 Democracy is High School, there are the popular kids (who can do anything up to and including murder), the normal kids (geeks – perspective people) and then there are the wanna-be’s (that is the crowd that want to be part of the popular kid club but are to self-deluded to see that they never will be and that the popular kids aren’t really that nice).\u00a0 Yes I stereotype \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
Perhaps, a popular vote wouldn’t be all that fair for anyone other than the person who can gain 51% support.\u00a0 In other words the club\/school who brings the most members has the best chance of winning.\u00a0 Not very fair for the smaller clubs\/schools!\u00a0 Does that mean the Karate Electoral College is actually more fair?!\u00a0 This video may shed some light on the matter, let me know what you think in the comments section…<\/p>\n
