Good article, but (there is always a “but”) the majority of population has a 10 minute attention span. They are products of an education system that values self esteem over reading comprehension and popularity over science. It is a little much to expect any research of candidates outside of Ellen interviews or one minute spots within the broadcast of the latest reality tv craze.
We got exactly what we pay for and wonder why things are the way they are..........
I watched most of the debates and find that more than two is a waste of time BUT, since the field was so crowded with presidential wannabe’s, at least one or two more might have been satisfactory. Noting that there were two different tiers of candidates, most in that second tier have been weeded out of the garden. There are still far too many, perhaps after the So. Carolina “test run”, there will be fewer. I hope so.
