That's what the disagreement always is in politics. But everyone thinks that they're way is the best way. This implies that people don't know what I'm talking about because they simply disagree with me and they think that my way of solving issues would be bad.

It implies nothing of the sort; you're missing the point. The point is that not only do they disagree with your solutions, they honestly don't see how they would work at all. I'm a social democrat, yet I can envision plans ranging from communism to laissez-faire capitalism being sustainable by a government. There's a difference between disagreement and disbelief.

Disbelief often stems from disagreement. The Tea Party doesn't believe Obama's plan will work BECAUSE (emphasizing, not shouting) they disagree with his plans.

Often, but not in this case. I've explained how it doesn't.

Fine, I recognize that some people don't think my plans would work. But every candidate has his detractors.

I realize that. But I hope those who have concerns about Bleckonia's understanding of things will care to elaborate on their misgivings.

You have the right to remain silent, however anything you do say can and could be taken down and be used in a court of law against you. Beware of failing to mention something now which you later rely on in a Court of Law. You have the right to Legal Assistance.
