We certainly do, but we're not voting on a single issue and a lot of voters are extremely uninformed or misinformed. There are a number of absolutely fucking atrocious Isrealis, and a number of abhorrent Americans... but there are a lot more that voted for Bush for economic reasons or because they had some mistaken impression of him - I don't know if you remember this but W actually had a great sense of humor and that appealed to some people.

Doesn’t really matter why one voted for [that guy]… they still voted for [thst guy], and collectively we put [that guy] into power; collectively, we’re responsible for putting [that guy who is an asshole] into power- saying one only voted so because [something irrelevant] is a large part of the problem.
