You have a more positive view of voters than I. We do not have Obama because of a well informed electorate.

Sometimes I think we are all the victims of some cosmic psychology experiment designed to show that sufficient advertising can persuade people to do anything, even if it is not in their best interests. I am continually flabbergasted by the level of stupidity of the general public. Not just in voting, but in everything.

Right. A friend and I were theorizing on what we have to do to win elections. We've decided we need to concentrate on college students as we need new voters.
That means beer, bands and food.

Maybe it also means we can’t run a candidate in his 70’s.
I think we need to find someone younger and more appealing to the younger voters. The older, wiser contingent can fill his/her cabinet and give advice. (You don’t really think Obama makes any of his own decisions, do you?)

I can play a role in this effort to convert young people. I'm a greatgrandmother with gray hair. I can go around and thank all these youngsters for paying for my healthcare, my social security. I also get my senior citizen discounts which means they have to pay more the take up the slack.
If the young people ever get this figured out, they'll stop voting Democrat.
Once my grandson called to tell me he just voted Democrat (he didn't). I then thanked him for volunteering to take care of me.
Most of my grandkids are die-hard conservatives. They see through it. Unfortunately, I have one who doesn't.

By a vote of 137-22 among Democrats in the House of Representatives to send in the clowns.
