46. Its ALL about fundraising and getting elected ...
The poorer the people, the less likely they are to cast a vote in either a primary or a general election. And, poor people don't contribute to campaigns.

The only time a candidate will EVER visit a poor area is for a photo op to impress rich voters. Its NEVER about actually speaking to, or helping, the poor ... its about raising money and getting elected.
