For many years average Americans, regardless of color, gender, national origin, religious affiliation (or lack of any religion), level of formal education or any other cultural identity have despised Democrat politicians more than Republican politicians. Why would this be so? Largely it can be assumed that Republicans have had a much better track record of hiding their elitism than Democrats have. Professor Gruber recently provided evidence of this elitism by simply stating that those self-same average Americans are “stupid”. Kind of hard not to despise such creatures. But, in all fairness, we should all recognize that Republican politicians are working hard to reduce the lead that Democrats hold in this arena. They might even gain the upper hand in the competition to become the most despised political party in the nation. At least it appears so. Former Florida governor Jeb Bush has recently announced to all the world that he believes that he is completely qualified to be President of the United States, and follow in the footsteps of his father, President George H.W. Bush and his brother President George W. Bush. That sounds alarmingly similar to listening to our current President telling us how phenomenally brilliant he is, and that he is (in his own opinion, of course) the second best President that has ever held that office. There is nearly no doubt that Barack Obama would have told the average American that he was in actuality the best, but listed himself as second best to show that he was very, very humble as well. But since Mr. Obama will be leaving the White House in January 2017, some average Americans might be concerned that Republicans will surge to the lead of the “Utterly Despised” championship competition. This should not trouble anyone for two (or depending on how it is counted) or three reasons.
