I'd just like to say that I did not chose to be an American anymore than I chose to be white, or female. It's a happenstance of my birth. I do not think I deserve a criminal, or a moron as president. And honestly neither do the stupid people in my country. In a way, that's a sort of victim blaming. If a person is born poor, indoctrinated young, and given limited access to education, what do we expect the majority of them to become? Those in power like to keep us fat and uneducated because then it is easier for them to keep power, and to get away with murder. But this does not mean the poor, unwashed masses deserve it. Even if they ask for it. It is what they are taught is right, and they are given no tools to question what they have been taught.
