Here's the thing. It's all true, yes. US society has degraded to the point where legitimate candidates who actually care about improving the country and the lives of its citizens have no chance. But why keep bringing this up? People continually saying that is partially why nothing ever changes - because the sea of positivity about a candidate like him then gets diluted by "oh he'll never win", and the sea of negativity about a Michelle Bachmann gets diluted by "people vote for fucking idiots like that, she'll probably win" or just simply going overboard with talking about her at all so that she's all anyone ever hears about. It's a travesty that she's a viable candidate and he's somehow not, but it's a collective effort by more than just the people that like her and/or dislike him that causes it to happen.

It's just like anything unfortunately - most things of merit in pretty much every aspect of politics, business, innovation and other news rarely ever get known because OMG JUSTIN BIEBER, OMG SARAH PALIN SAID SOMETHING STUPID, OMG CHARLIE SHEEN IS SUCH A COKE HEAD. The more attention, positive or negative, we give to this shit, the worse it gets, and the more dismissive statements we give to the legit people and news, however true in nature the statement might be, the more we hurt that sort of thing.

The funny thing is it's not just better for society as a whole if people started to shift their attention towards the legit things that really matter, but it's better for each person doing it.
