Which makes you the minority.  Most people don't work that way.

Wtf? isn't that the entire point of democracy? To vote who you think best represent your own policy and gives proposals you think will benefit yourself or your country?

Why would you vote for someone, you would like to have a beer with?

"most people don't work that way" ???

That's just sad to read.. politics in the US are so messed up.

No idea.  I'm not saying I vote for the "cool" person.  But most Americans have little knowledge of what politicians actually believe.  

Is that sad?  Sure, but that is the reality.  

Anyone who thinks the average American reads policies and votes accordingly is delusional.  Most watch the news and decide based on a few stories. 

Edit

Which is why Pokoko is 100% right on media and messaging.  The media focuses on special interest groups and reports little on things like best SP500 to date.  Many voters assume liberals only care about special interest groups and vote republican.

As an easy example.  There was a poll a few weeks ago and 48% of Americans thought the stock market was down YTD....  Americans don't even know the basics of what is going on.

So messaging becomes key.  Liberals should focus their message less on special interest, that most don't care about, and talk more about the basics.  Just my 2 cents, Biden should mention the highest stock market ever almost everytime talks.  Maybe even every time he talks.
