 I partially can understand why people are so hyped about presidential candidates talking about bitcoin, but in my experience a presidential candidate, specifically the ones from the 2 major sides, only use it as a medium to get more votes in.

If you replace every occurence of the word "bitcoin" with the word "tulip" it makes just as much sense.

In my experience what they promise and what they deliver are hardly ever the same thing. They promis you a mountain of gold but you should settle for a bucket full of shit at best.

This is why i have completely checked out of politics for about a decade now. Saved me loads of time and nothing major has ever changed in my life for not caring. Politics have a terrible ROI, right after "the news". 
 Well said.
