Presidential race 2016

[HairOfTheDog]

I believe there are more uninformed voters than informed ones. Many will vote for the color of skin or gender and not think twice about it. Some voter drives basically bribe the voters in. But yes there are many that are informed and give some thought to which lever to pull and can see through the veil.

I don't get the impression that the majority of people will vote based on skin color or gender; that's just based on my personal interactions and listening to the views expressed by strangers via media. But, I do agree that "many" people might do that; "many" is relative.

I also don't believe that people were somehow more informed up until the 21^st century when the only presidential candidates were white men.

In my opinion, the majority of people are more informed than ever before because there are so many more sources of easily-accessible information than ever before.
