I tend to be of the opinion that Mark Dice is an idiot, but the second video (intentionally or not) does actually present an interesting point. Cherry picking was likley involved, but it's true that if you associate an idea with something a person likes or agrees with, you can get that agreement to extend to stuff they don't understand or would otherwise actively oppose.
We've seen the same thing with Obamacare vs ACA. Despite being the same thing, the former's association with Obama drives a lot more opposition than when it's unqualified.
Edit: First video, not second.
