I started junior high in a presidential election year. There was, of course, a range of opinions and arguments concerning who would be the best choice. My home room teacher, a woman probably in her sixties, opined that, “It doesn’t matter whom you vote for; I’m sure that they’re [the candidates] all equally well qualified.”
Even to my naive and juvenile mind, I thought her position was malarkey. Most presidential elections, from ‘60 to ’20, both disproved her position on candidate quality, and affirmed the American electorate’s penchant for selecting the worse — or worst — available choice. (Hint: all of the third-rate winners and shills were Republicans.)
