Let's presume I am.

Color me a perfectly average stereotype of what an 'American' is.

Will I want to elect the most intelligent and capable person to high office, or someone who I believe conforms the closest to me, my lifestyle, my interests, and my capabilities?

Smart people may be very corrupt or bad as well --- look at Saakashvili in Georgia, although the guy seems very neurotic.

It is quite sad the backgrounds of the 2 finalist for POTUS.Just as sad that every election you have to chose from the best of the worst

It seems that a fair number of Americans place considerable importance on voting for the candidate who watches the same game shows as they do.
