I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

i think we would learn a lot, as a society, if we got together and did a study on the IQ of the collective voter, not necessarily the average voter, but the collective one.

How smart are we as a voting base. I feel like there's probably some useful knowledge there.

Democrats lose when they assume people are smart.

A person can be smart. People are dumb, panicky animals.
