Yes the country is being run by really really stupid people.
But just get a look at, at a minimum, half the people in this country, who are even dumber. Fat, stupid morons, most of whom vote for demonrats.
Seems to me the Founding Fathers were aware of just how ignorant the voting public could be. One reason in my opinion they made voting a bit more difficult than is the aim of democrats of today wanting to make it easy and unrestricted in any way for anyone legal or otherwise.
Apparently ignorance wins the day, and if not, cheating will make up the difference needed.
