You're making it sound like that'll require effort in the first place.

Sort of reflects the notion that Democratic governments ought to be supporting the desires of the majority of the population

Well always pandering to what the majority of the population wants is bad for a democracy. Politicians should follow through with their morals and platforms that they were elected on instead of using polls or studies to vote in a way that gets them the next election.

I don't know a whole lot about Rick Perry but what I do know is that running for President has made many, very reasonable people look batshit crazy because they have to go either full left or full right on their views to receive enough support from their respective political parties whereas when running for something like governor people are able to keep their proverbial feet on the ground.

That is not what populism is. Politicians only supporting only whats popular at the time is what gets countries thrusted into emotion driven wars.

I don't think so, Republicans are known for being stubborn in their ways more so than going with the flow.

Obama only just recently did the same thing as Rick Perry, after being pretty adamant about not wanting to legalize it.

Oh I should Mention, Rick Perry was a Democrat from 1984 to 1989
