Few people are able to digest or understand current events. Most are caught up in sports, family, or even trick or treat. The uninformed will decide who will be President.

This is why I don’t want everyone voting. The media always pushes “participation” as a good thing.

If you don’t understand what’s going on, please just stay home. I think a lot of voters just randomly pick candidates like poor students pick answers on multiple choice exams.

However, it’s how our system is set up, so until we get a law screening voters for knowledge of current events (which will never be passed) we are stuck with what we have.

This is why it is important to have a candidate who not only has conservative principles but LOOKS good. Sorry to say so, but a lot of people vote on the visuals.
