During Presidential Election Cycles, have we as a nation become more emotional and less logical in our thinking towards picking a candidate?

I think we go with who can be nastier and come out cleaner in the. The politics are more emotionally charged as they seem to center on the divisions between culture, race, religion, and party. I believe we were discussing earlier the point about issues- what ever happened to them? When things get a little to far one way or the other- race card- racists- doesn't care about middle class- etc. Then the emotion comes in- and informed or mis-informed the seed is planted. Low info voters won't go find or know how to find the correct answers.

To say the least!
