You and I knew about those things! Be aware that a huge percentage of Obama voters seem to have been totally UNAWARE of most or all of that and many still seem to be unaware. I was amazed during the election at how many people seemed to not know basic things such as that he had a white mother or that his alleged father was not an American. It is dangerous to underestimate the average voter’s capacity to remain totally ignorant in the midst of an information overload.
A huge percentage of Obama voters, probably a majority even cannot tell you the century when the American civil war was fought, that’s right I said CENTURY, not years. Many or most could not tell you what the American Revolution even was, let alone what the issues were or when it happened or what country we fought against. Mention a name like Cornwallis or Tarleton and they probably think you are naming cigarette brands.
“It is dangerous to underestimate the average voter’s capacity to remain totally ignorant in the midst of an information overload.”
It is equally dangerous to think of the average voter as a kindergartener in adult’s clothing.
They know exactly what they’re about and they know where the current crop of revolutionary Democrats wants to lead them.
(respectfully), IMHO
That's the rub.. they don't CARE. The facts and details don't matter to them. What matters to them is that 0bama IS. To them, what he says is truth and all else is right-wing lies.
To us clear-thinking and pragmatic folk, the idea of an 0bama presidency is abhorrent, because we know what he stands for. We know he's a not-so-closeted Marxist who wants to fundamentally and radically change this country on the Euro-socialist model.
The libs see 0bama as this transformation figure who would rise Messiah-like over us all and create a milk-and-honey, post-racial, and frankly post-America, one-world utopia. To them, 0bama is not a political leader; rather he's their guiding light of their faith. In a cult-like trance, they hang on his every word as gospel; some faint while others' faces stream with tears. Look at the close-up pics of his followers in the crowd shots from the 2008 campaign. These people look like they've found manna from Heaven when they cast their eyes on 0bama.
Very, very weird.
