Some pros are that everyone gets a say. For example if a state has 10 delegates and 6 vote democrat the other 4 Republican votes arent counted. However some cons would be that the electoral college was set in place by our founding fathers for a reason. It gives every state, no matter how small, a say. It also makes sure no one party completely dominates the votes for a long period of time. If California, a dominantly liberal state with a high population, votes without the electoral college it crushes the competition making America a place where you opinion doesnt matter because its dominately liberal. So its whichever you prefer.

Others participated to satisfy feudal obligations, gain glory and honor, or find opportunities for economic and political

The armies of the two kings marched separately across Europe. After crossing Byzantine territory into Anatolia, both armies were separately defeated by the Seljuk Turks. The only Christian success of the Second Crusade came to a combined<span> force of 13,000 Flemish, Frisian, Norman, English, Scottish, and German crusaders in 1147. Traveling from England, by ship, to the </span>Holy Land, the army stopped and helped the smaller (7,000) Portuguese army in the capture of Lisbon, expelling its Moorish occupants.<span>

As collateral the crusaders seized the Christian city of </span>Zara; Innocent was appalled and excommunicated them.<span> They also conquered Constantinople twice, after the initial success in taking the city, the original purpose of the campaign was defeated by the assassination of Alexios IV Angelos. In response, the Crusaders captured the Constantinople again and this time sacked it, pillaging churches and killing many citizens.
