"While you are 100 percent certain that your preferred candidate's stance on issues such as foreign policy and the economy would appeal to any human being with half a brain, there is, in this very same country, an equally large voting bloc which believes that you and your candidate of choice are absolutely insane"
Article from The Onion, a satire website from America.
The Onion is a newsletter with a long history of satirical articles which no holds barred.
The irony aspect of satire is that sometimes it reveals more information and insight than what you can glean from normal news report and commentary. Especially political incorrect information and very simple facts that gets overlooked by over-analysed data and eager journalists.
Many people make up this world, and its really amazing how different beliefs and opinions can be held, and fought over. People who believe in a particular belief, say political party 1, cannot understand why are there so many people supporting the other side. "Isn't this obvious", I've heard this lamenting countless of times.
Personally I feel Obama is the ideal man for the job right now, and the Democratic Party has the greatest potential to right the wrongs and set USA in the correct path. And there is easily another large voting bloc who believe that voting for Obama is insane and nothing less of a Republican victory would do USA justice.
Thats the beautiful thing about democracy.
