Part of me thinks its stupidity, part of me thinks its just part of our social makeup that wants us to be a part of a group (a cause). I'm not really sure. I'm happy to be independent and believe just about every politician is a crook who couldn't cut it in the private sector.
See, now that makes sense (about how it all makes no sense). Thank you. I agree with you too, that it does seem to be that way.

Like this election. People are picking who they dislike least to lead them. What kind of a choice is that? You should be picking the best leader out of a group of potentially great leaders... not the one guy who's not quite as bad as the other.
