I give up on 49% of my supposed fellow "citzens". They don't have a damned clue about democracy or what it stands for. The vague promise of paying a few less cents for a gallon of gas plus shitting on people that don't look, pray or think like you do and you've got an election triumph. Democracy? Highly overrated. Who needs it, anyway?
Fuck 'em all.
