Express your thoughts on how political parties use rhetoric to manipulate their supporters.
I get the financial influence within the government and its contractors.  However, what bugs me is how the big parties sell it on their supporters.  It's the same old line that leverages the American arrogant ignorance that we somehow are the beacon of morality in the world, and that everyone wants to destroy us because of it.  The voting public buys that garbage like frightened 3 year olds.
