No. Lacking that 'world perspective' is what is wrong, under what Davin says. That's his whole argument. Voting for Bush is not inherently wrong. People vote for Kerry while lacking the 'world perspective' as well. The Bush implication is reaching, and to push it derails this argument. Which is that regardless of what people go on to vote later, at least they would be making an educated choice. The focus is on awareness and knowledge as the foundation of a solid democratic system, not them gradually making one a democrat (or republican).
