You see nothing at all wrong with those "rules"? Nor with the fact that a man who claims to have cut his teeth feeding on resentment and hate (without accomplishing anything to show for it, mind you), and dangling hope as a carrot to manipulate people, is the President of your state? (These are not rhetorical questions, by the way; I am genuinely curious in a horrified sort of way.) EDIT: With respect to your last sentence, are you implicitly saying that the ends justify the means?
