“If I can just get the drug vote, I can win by a landslide”
That statement, alone, is enough to make me vote, no. What an idiotic way to express one of his core campaign issues.
I agree with you on the “drug vote” comment - but I will say, to this guys credit, he has hit on a point that far too many Freepers can’t get through their heads .which is supposedly pristine candidates are running the country into the ground.
Sometimes it’s better to have an obviously flawed candidate in their personal life, who has the right view of government. Because in the end, it’s government bureaucrats and officials carrying out government policy that ruin our lives, our freedoms, our businesses, our school wife cheaters and other imperfect candidates do not do this.
I think that was a tongue-in-cheek statement. He was trying to be humorous, but, there is a lot more truth to that than people realize. It would surprise you if you knew how many people, from all walks of life, do some type of recreational drug. That is a “huge” voting bloc. You just wouldn’t believe.
