There are IDIOTS on both sides... Trump is a good choice because he's the ant-candidate. May not ever see another if the D's and R's get their way. BUT, I have to admit that many of the younger people I've met and dealt with recently are total xxsholes. Years of liberal education indoctrination will do that to you.

Well, that's certainly a big factor. There are a lot of people in the country today who have no idea what the Constitution is about or how important is the role of the Supreme Court or any understanding of the concept of separation of powers. And why it was made like that. One of my great concerns going forward -- whichever candidate wins -- is the willingness to roll back the use of Executive Orders for the president to get his way when Congress disagrees. This is a very dangerous precedent and while the precedent can't be undone after Obama leaves office, I would hope the next several presidents would refuse to go down that road so the value as precedent would shrivel up and die over time. Not very likely.
