I see your point, but you don't see these things.
Anything 'personal' you see about the candidates has been professionally groomed and evaluated to determine in advance how they will influence the voter.

When I vote for someone, my vote is based on a) if they give me the impression of being honest and b)how they will do their job.
I don't care about their beliefs, nor do I care about their marital status, or even if they are gay or not, or smoked pot as a teen.
