I appreciate your analysis Tom h and agree with you.

I don’t know about Roberts. But, this nation is where it is today because of the ASININE way people vote. Yes voter fraud is a problem but it’s only got to this point because we have elected horrible representatives who have aided and abetted the fraud.

We as a nation have to start voting better.

We have good voters, good patches and some really good elected officials. But not good enough. This country has got to start voting CONSISTENTLY BETTER. Hilary should not have gotten a tenth of the votes she got. Obama never should have been elected once, let alone twice. Standing against the political opinions of most Californians, Gavin Newsome does not belong in the governorship of California. Our electorate is lazy and self Indulgent and corrupt.

Nice points. However, I don’t blame Hillary any more than I blame pests for invading my garden or rats for getting into my garage and getting into the dog foot. That’s what they’re born for.

I mostly blame the media. The media is what should mostly be above reproach. Then the voters can make a better decision.

But we also have accept one other thing. Voters, by their very nature, are shallow. It is the same in all Western democracies, and in 2nd and 3rd world countries too.

I usually say that voters’ memories are incredibly short. A GOP President will get elected and lead us to a period of incredibly prosperity. He then gets re-elected by a huge majority. But a mere 4-8 years later, no matter what, those same voters elect a liberal President who promises them the world. They forget where the prosperity came from!

The same goes with foreign policy. Every 12-16 years we elect a President who during his campaign says that if we’re just nicer to our enemies, they’ll be nice back! Obama in 2008; Clinton in 1992; Carter in 1976. You’d think we’d have learned the lesson, but nooo ...

Unfortunately, I don’t think that’s changeable. Voters are shallow and they are fickle.
