But still, why not listen to the majority at the first place?
Also this way votes won't go "unused" because now when in State A 49% kerry 51% Bush and the state has a LOT of people, kerry loose a lot of votes.(and vice versa) So in texas it doesn't make much sense for democrats to vote for the president for example, which is a shame.(and again vice versa)

Because the USA is country of states. The electoral college keeps the highly populated states from deciding who will be the president.
