I'm sorry that people are too stupid to understand their own best interest. When a rich white man votes Republican, it might actually be in his best interest. When the Bible-thumper votes Republican, it might appear to be in their best interest. But when the poor masses are voting Republican because their Church tells them to, they are NOT voting in their own best interest.

If you are under 30, and not a multimillionaire, vote Democrat or something else: Green, Progressive, Socialist even. Fascism simply does not suit you.

If you are over 30, and actually care about your kids and grandkids well being, don't vote away their rights and their future.

With all due respect, if anyone actually followed this advice they would be idiots. Vote because of what you believe and in a person who at least shares in values that you think are important in a person who is going to represent what you think is important. It is a complete falsehood to think that "poor masses" vote because their church tells them how to vote. Most people are smarter than that. To vote one way because of someone you are not is just stupid.

It's not a complete falsehood. I (sadly) know lots of examples. I guess you can quibble over how many count towards "masses", and I certainly hope that it isn't "most people", but it is a lot.

a) It was just an example opinion. I didn't pick the worst or best.

b) well he was wrong about the 'poor masses' It's called the religious right and the Catholic church. They tell them how to vote rich and poor. They are called SHEEP after all.

You have no data to prove your assertions. You are repeating the manta of the left-wingnuts. If you do, show it, I would like to read it. My reference was original research with data.
