Ask a policeman why he imposes the opinions of politicians on the public. He'll tell you that his authority comes from the state, and the state's authority is derived from the consent of the governed, given at the voting booth.
Just like the slaver doesn't care what you do with the slaves, most of the government doesn't care who you vote for, just that you vote.
You're like wrestling fans who buy a ticket to the venue to support your guy, and discourage the other guy. You think that your yells and signs are important, but the wrestlers are just pretending to be competitors. Once you've bought your ticket, they don't care who you support.
