A deeper question is about what the media calls "undecided" voters. If a voter really can't tell the difference between the values and objectives of republicans vs those of democrats, is that person informed enough to even be voting?
Undecided can be for many reasons. One example is you have always voted for one political party but don’t like the candidate this time around, maybe even hate him with every fiber of your being. So then you might be undecided. Another example is not liking either party so trying to decide who is the least objectionable.

Voting for “values and objectives” can find us with a horrible,vile person in office which kind of puts a hole in the whole “values” thing.
