Thoughts on how to improve the current system

... or am I wrong?

Don't believe most anything you read, and only half of what you see. That was an old axiom of my father's. In other words, be skeptical, and when it comes to politics, be extremely skeptical.

The field of political science does not require any specific knowledge of history, geography, or economics, but you'd think it would help. As it's turning out, I'll probably be voting for the gynecologist.

Edit: This LA times article says what I'd like to say, but more succinctly. Everyone has an axe to grind in politics, so often, we are the idiots for not looking deeper to discover the truth. They say "Look at the idiot.", and we guffaw on cue. Who is the ignorant one?
