As much as I can see what you are saying, I find it hard to give most of the population that much credit. They have the views they have because someone told them to think that way. I wouldn't put it past them to totally change their opinions if one day either party got on the TV and changed their stance on something. Obviously, this can't count for everyone. There are people who use their brains on either side of an argument, but really, those people are few and far between. At the very least, if what I mentioned actually occurred there would for sure be some very confused people.
