It's truly amazing, how some people are so downright positive (and ignorant) that the OTHER side are all nuts.
I honestly have little to no concern, nor care for anything related... meaning Politics as a whole. Never have, and likely never will.
I firmly believe, that your vote is as worthless as a napkin from Dunkin' Donuts.
If we ask 100 people who they like on American Idol or anyone of these TV contestant shows (Big Brother, Survivor, etc..) that requires the viewer to vote, and we asked, "Do you think the poll is fair or rigged?", it's a safe bet, that a solid percentage don't truly believe their call in vote really matters.
In short, many think these shows or programs are all scripted and the outcome is decided long before we see episode 1. Or so, that is what many believe.
Those same people will say; "I don't trust they're being honest" or find many reasons as to why clicking on your PC, mobile app, texting or calling in to vote, is simply getting lost in the ether, while the executives and big shots at these companies and corporations behind the scenes, doing what they can and are making the final decisions.
Fair?
Same applies for the various Beauty Pageants, and everything from local contests, to sports and competitions on a National or International level.
If you don't trust some Producers and big wigs at some Entertainment company in NY or LA (whom you've never met), why would you trust the Politicians from Washington D.C.? Also, who you've never met.
It has been this way forever, and even more in today's world, where Side A think that Side B are crazy, unhinged, deplorable and the rest. But their side, their view, their opinion is researched, confirmed and the better choice. Of course, this also applies with Side B and their thoughts on Side A.
"I read a poll that says he is winning", the other side, "I saw a poll for the same state, but it's a trusted poll, and it says she is winning" and the tennis volley continues.
In reality, it's pretty much an even split, and usually with any of these polls / elections. It's like asking Google if Dark Chocolate or Red Wine, or eating a lot of Vegetables is good for you. One article says yes, the other says no.
With that, if you think 50% of the world is nuts, but your side is sane, then you are equally the nutcase and guilty of being stupid and ignorant.
Sadly it's not even about Policy or the Politics at this point, people either "like him and hate her", or "like her and hate him", it's about the person.
It doesn't matter what he or she say or do, the other side will dig up a reason to inform the masses they "lied", or "flip flopped" or point out why they're no good.
I have never voted, and never will... my 10 minutes is better spent power spraying my garbage cans so they don't smell.
