Rock Stars and Nut Shells
It's finally hit me as to how to reason out why anyone (aside from being gay and wanting to marry) would ever vote Obama into office for a second term. It's learned behavoir. Think of the rock star that people scream over and say is the "best ever." Aynone with ears could tell you differently, but the fans rant and rave over the "best voice ever." If you press these fans further (onces with an IQ anyway) they admit that they aren't really the best voice but they give away freebees with their fan club and tell you you are wonderful because you are a fan. Meanwhile the fans of Pavarotti or Sinatra may not get as many giveaways or perks but they have the satisfaction of knowing that they are fans of someone who really does have talent. That's the state of the presidency in a nut shell.
