Doesn't work when every candidate is bought, or if not the few who aren't are too outnumbered to mean anything.

And who's fault would that be? You're not intelligent enough to think and vote for yourself?

If you're talking to the typical American, yes. We really are too dumb to think for ourselves. In fact most of us will vote one way just because one of the candidates is black, not only blacks but other so called progressives because they think they're being hip. Sure, another group will vote one way because one of the candidates is white but no blacks will vote thinking it'll be cool to vote for someone white.

Also, many people will vote one way because they know it's more likely the welfare checks will keep coming. This basically means their votes are bought.

As long as the ignorant and dumb are allowed to vote, and breed like crazy, this country will continue going to hell.

Yup, when they do studies on why people vote the way they do its very discouraging. By the way the political machines spend a huge amount of attention to these things to manipulate the voting public.

Hrmm. I like how you are missing the real point of elections. The average person's votes only matters to the lesser people on the ballots. Presidential ballots are done by electoral college votes. Popular vote can't vote in a president. It just makes the less informed (you) think they did something about it. You can't run a country like a business if your business made money off of restructuring companies. You can't build a super government to fix everything. Bush Jr and Cheney's company made lots of money in Iraq/Afganistan. No one ever mentions that. Or why we went to Iraq in the first damn place(hoping for lower gas prices I bet). Last time I checked Iraq didn't have a WMD... oh well. Dem or Rep is a system made to make you feel you are choosing between two different things. But in reality they are the same puppets for the corporations. Also in regards to welfare checks, some people do need the help I believe. But like everything else, it gets abused like the tax code.
