Can we get a copy of the Constitution that the DNC Chair is using, please?

... Somebody needs to check the copy that DNC Chairman Tom Perez is using because that one seems to have a massive, glaring omission in it. During recent comments, Perez reminded everyone that the electoral college is not only a flawed system which robbed Hillary Clinton of the presidency, but it's not even in the Constitution. ...
The Electoral College, a mechanism for indirect election of the president created by the Founding Fathers as a compromise between smaller states and larger states, is clearly laid out in Article II of the Constitution: "Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress." ...
Just a brief observation in closing here. This is the guy the Democrats elected to lead their party out of the wilderness after the beating they took last fall. I'll be the first to admit that there are some obscure bits of the Constitution that I couldn't recite without looking them up first, but the establishment of the electoral college is a fairly big deal. If Tom Perez didn't even know that much about it, have the Dems really found the right man for the job?
