Quote:An establishment politician is typically a career politician.  It is one that votes along party lines rather than voting the way that his/her constituents prefer.

 

A non-establishment politician will vote according to The Constitution, and what his/her constituents prefer. 
 

You mean the "establishment politician" is the one that disagrees with you, and the "non-establishment" politician is the one that votes they way you like. Got it.

 

"Career politician" means what? Five years? Ten? 

 

If they voted for me, then my votes must reflect the will of my constituents, right? Or should I vote the way the people who didn't vote for me (i.e., the minority) want me to vote? So confusing.

 

If they don't think like I do they are not following the Constitution! Of course! Ipso facto!
