There's a lot of folks from both sides that just want the opportunity to work and make a living. Don't want to see us tied up in senseless foreign war. Want to see manufacturing come back to this country. Want to see us producing our own energy in all it's forms. Don't really care if gays marry. Don't want to pay in a huge portion of their wages in taxes. Are sick of corruption on wall street and in Government.
Sick of being sold out by the people elected to represent us. Sick of paying way too much for health care. Sick of paying way too much for higher education. Want to see their kids do better than they did.
The fringe of both parties, if they haven't taken over, they're screaming so loud that the majority are getting drowned out.
That's spot on. Get the f out of my way and let me make a living.

Sorry for not jumping in with both feet to the latest conspiracy theory of the day that never goes anywhere.
Was there fraud? sure. Was it just the fact that more than likely 50.2% of the country just doesn't see things the same way as us any more? Probably.
It's a crazy system that incentivises people not to work. We, as a collective society are to blame. Somewhere along the line "Family" lost it's importance. Society got too busy and too caught up in "the individual"
and decided they'd let someone else raise their children. Be it the public education system or electronic media.
That’s about how I see it.
I think there’s a lot of people that want basically similar things but there to stupid to think for themselves as make sound decisions. They want everything mentioned above but then someone says we can’t separate children at the border, people come here to better themselves, we need to be more inclusive, one child lost to gun violence is to many, and on and on and a substantial number fall for it even though it’s not in there best interest. Kind of like a woman that picks losers over and over. She can tell you what she wants but can’t seem to pick it.
And then you factor all of the big money flooding politics from the insurance industry and every other special interest group that has a direct ear to the politicians and its part of why we are where we are.
