To blame certain individuals in positions of power for anything is either disingenuous or misguided.
Let me put this as simply as I can. If the majority of Americans are not pleased with the way things are going, they should get off their asses and do something about it. There's not much more to it than that.
Do you live in such a country where the government is similar to the US? If the answer is no, then you could not possibly understand how things are in this country. Until you can say that you have had first hand experience in dealing with politicians who lie just to get elected, then you are absolutely ignorant of what it is that happens here in this country.
I DO vote. That doesn't mean that the person I voted for is going to get elected. So if the opponent gets elected, none of the changes my candidate wanted, will happen. None of the things that should take place, will, so your argument is crap.
You didn't address my argument in any way, so I'm not going to play into your hands here. First address my actual argument, and then we can talk.
