It can be argued that the electoral collage is not the best method due to the more modern we get, based on a system set up with the Constitution back in the 18th century. However, until the day the government decides to create a new system, it is the best we have.
No, however the electoral college has the honor to select the president and the vice president

the electoral college works like this the convention delegates settled on a system in which each state legislature would choose a number of electors. The electoral college would select the president and vice president.
If the Electoral College cannot choose a winner, then it will go to the House of Representatives. If they keep tying, it goes to the Senate and everyone votes. If the Senate ties, then the current Vice President that will soon be out of office will break the tie and choose the President. This happened with Bush and Gore. At the time, Gore was the Vice President. If the Senate would have tied, Gore would have broken the tie, and, of course, voted for himself.
If no candidate receives a majority of electoral votes, the Twelfth Amendment of the United States Constitution provides that the U.S. House of Representatives will select the president, with each of the fifty state delegations casting one vote, and the U.S. Senate will select the vice-president.
