| 5. But it is about politics... |
|
Why do people vote against their interests time after time? Because politicians have convinced them that it is the blacks, latinos, liberals, Jews (insert whatever scapegoats are convenient) that are causing all their problems and if they just vote for Reagan, Bush, Gingrinch (insert latest flavor) it will be "morning in America" once again. And it will happen again in this election cycle.
