Gullible is one word, uneducated is certainly another one for a decent percentage of them. Others are just die hard Republicans who no matter who the candidate is they will vote for them but I suppose that is no different to those who will only ever vote Democrat or Labor or Tory in the UK for that matter.
I have long advocated that we should expect our politicians to be well educated and intelligent. I am not trying to stop an ordinary man from having that aspiration but education should be a given for anyone in this sort of vital role. I am not bothered so much about what they get up to in their private lives as long as its not illegal, they are still human and life gets in the way for them as much as it does for us but having a good level of intelligence should be a prerequisite.
