Here on RM and a ton of other sites, all I hear is about how the "Ignorant" US public doesnt really understand the issues or know what they're voting for. Or for that matter, even know what the electoral college is and how it works. Some of you high and mighty liberals, i think, are just too high and mighty to actually try and make a connection that could really change someone's mind someday...which I would think should be important if progress is what you're really after. Honestly though, I dont think its what you're after. I just think alot of really far left leaning folks have some kind of inferiority complex where they feel that they need to stand out as smarter than "the majority" and latch on to some kind of useless, impossible, never-gunna-happen, idealist platform.
Well guys...give it a rest please.
Here's the way it works. People go to work all day long 5 days a week and get two off. They like to watch football and do yardwork and bring up their kids the way they were brought up. Bush, makes the promise that this lifestyle will continue. Kerry makes the promise that this lifestyle will continue only with certain changes. The debates are about these significant changes. The candidates are not THE SAME as some of you all would like the world to believe. They are simply at the ends of practical in the majority of the public mindset. It is not stupidity. Have a respect for culture please.
