A radio story this morning pointed out a difficulty representatives have when they try to determine how their constituents want them to vote. Sometimes the minority opinion is the most passionateand the loudest.
The report states that though a majority of the population favors amnesty for illegals aliens, calls to the offices of members of Congress often run 20 - 1 against it.
What's a self interested politician to do (sorry to be redundant)? Do you represent the will of the population, or of the voters? They are not the same.
