A lot of reform is just changing the disinformation message. Remember the Obama fake birth certificate? You are always gonna have 25-30% of the supporters for either party buy into sh1t like that. It only takes 51% to win an election. You get half way there just by tricking the blindly loyal. They don't even know they are blindly loyal too.
When was the last, or ever, time you saw your local media dog a local candidate?
