Because it's not just a popularity contest. I mean, it is, but you also need money to advertise yourself to an entire country.

Advertising is expensive when you have to pay for it, instead of doing stupid or evil stuff all the time like certain famous Republicans.

So, who has money, and how do you convince them to give you money? This is where the intersection between who we want and who we get lies.
