Ladies and gentlemen, you must understand that the problem is far more severe than many believe. For many voters, this is not a matter of choosing a better candidate. Most of the time, they do not know who they are voting for, or why. They vote by party alone: Republican or Democrat.

The ballot is divided along party lines, and they simply proceed down the list, checking every box for their chosen party.

They fail to comprehend that they are voting for individuals who act against their own interests. They assume that new Republicans are better than the old ones, without evidence or understanding. This is a profoundly failed system, and its dysfunction is self-evident
