The informed voter

If you're going to bust someone's chops for poor sentence structure, you might want to make sure to not make any errors yourself while doing so.

I could give a crap about typos or sentence structure in forum posts usually. Jim has been Mr. Pedantic on a regular basis tho' so he's kinda asking for extra attention.
 
There was only one candidate who predicted this economic time of reckoning. Unfortunately, he was only on the ballot in 2 states.
He was marginalized by the media and scoffed at by his own party.
While the media darlings and Dubya were saying, "Don't worry, our economy is strong", this guy was saying, "We are spending and borrowing too much and some day soon the chickens are coming home to roost".

Results to 12 simple Multiple Choice Questions

57.4% could NOT correctly say which party controls congress (50/50 shot just by guessing)

81.8% could NOT correctly say Joe Biden quit a previous campaign because of plagiarism (25% chance by guessing)

82.6% could NOT correctly say that Barack Obama won his first election by getting opponents kicked off the ballot (25% chance by guessing)

56.1% could NOT correctly say Obama started his political career at the home of two former members of the Weather Underground (25% chance by guessing).

And yet.....

Only 13.7% failed to identify Sarah Palin as the person on which their party spent $150,000 in clothes

Only 6.2% failed to identify Palin as the one with a pregnant teenage daughter

And 86.9 % thought that Palin said that she could see Russia from her "house," even though that was Tina Fey who said that!!

Only 2.4% got at least 11 correct.

Only .5% got all of them correct. (And we "gave" one answer that was technically not Palin, but actually Tina Fey)
 
You realize that's what Cerise posted right?

Hell yeah, they didn't go for the distortions, smears, and scare tactics but instead went for the better candidate. :clap:

Where's the survey of McCain voters?
 
Interestingly, even with some people on ignore I've still broken yet another irony meter. :D
 
Stupid idea. Even those who do inform themselves usually only get the media version, and seldom know anything about what's really going on.

How so, every black person in America voted for Obama just because of his skin color, they didn't even know anything about his politcal ideas.
