1. The truck driver may vote either way. He seems to epitomize the typical blue-collar, working-class individual who is proud of their profession and suspicious of a different or higher class then they are. In politics, both the Democratic and Republican parties play on the issue between upper class elitism and ordinary working people in order to win that group's vote.
2. The truck driver will be primarily interested in economics. He may be worried about how the state of the economy or government policies will affect him. Another likely factor may be dissatisfaction with government, either for it's policies or his view of them. He could view the government as out of touch with his needs and not connected to him at a social level.
3. Success may be viewed from your social status, whether you are upper middle class or a member of the affluent elite. A respected profession is often viewed as a point that that individual has reached success in their lives. Sometimes success depends on personal happiness that may stem from satisfaction with your professional or personal life.
