I actually think is a good thing. Americans generally have no idea how public policy can affects the lives of people, themselves included. At least this way, they get a pretty good lesson of why politics matters. Voting should never merely be an issue of conscience, like how American culture tries to paint it as.
Alternative explanation...
Guy with 90,000 sq foot house endorses Romney.
The simplest explanation is usually the correct one.
I mean if you were busting you rump trying to make ends meet and your frugal boss with a 90,000 sq ft house and a trophy wife younger than your daughter told you he was laying you off because of Obama would you believe that horse $h-t? That's the white version of a black high school drop out, with an abysmal command of the English language, tattoos, gold teeth, 3 baby mommas, a rap sheet a mile long, and his pants hanging off his @$$ calmly explaining to you he can't get meaningful employment because of "racism." That BS is no less disgusting regardless of who is saying it.
Any of you f'ing peasants want cake?
