Blaming the electorate instead of the system is definitely a choice. These kinds of systemic issues go all the way back to the founding of the country (capitalism as the chosen economic model, first part the post voting, the electoral college and the Senate giving land more voting rights than people, representative democracy instead of direct democracy leading to massive amounts of corruption) and every attempt to solve those issues have been thwarted using very dirty tactics by the elite.
