I think you've hit a key point smooth. Many people are told to never discuss politics and religion. Even if the person is of the opposite belief set or political map you are, it should be talked about. I think talking about it always helps people see things better. It may not change your mind, but hopefully, the person can say they learned something new and may take a better look at all parties involved.
If more people talked about it openly and honestly, perhaps we would see a shift in the way voters behaved ... they would make an informed decision on the candidates (all parties) instead of just quoting partisan rhetoric and taking it as fact.
