This was just shown on Glenn Beck and it is a SCREAM!!! I would like to see how many actually got it correct versus a "Birther" argument!

Culturally, growing up I think he is more Indonesian. He is going to his HOMECOMING.

This is the result of the failed liberal approach to education. Liberals aren’t even familiar with their own ideas anymore.

That wasn't a prank, its a legitimate question and any informed voter even half assed versed in economics would not have felt misled.

Typical for Stewart's viewers - there were very few who had a clue.

What caught my attention was the guy who got it and said he didn’t really know what Obama’s economic policies are. How can one not know how big a Keynesian Obama is. Right up there with Paul Krugman.

I watched it on Beck's show and could not believe that fat broad calling the interviewer stupid when she had no idea what the sign meant!

Beck laughed when the only liberal who got it correct said he did not know about Obambis monetary policies.

I swear, we need to have some kind of IQ test for people before allowing them to vote.

Even the students majoring in Economics failed the test.

Can they get a refund on their tuition from the University?

I heard one student refer to OBAMA as 'Awesome' I didn't know they replaced English with ValleyGirlBonics as the official language on American Campuses

Were any of the students polled going to a State College? Your tax payers money at work again.

I agree about the value of the question but who ever said that these people are "Informed Voters" or even "Informed ANYTHING?"

HOWEVER, that is the basis of my specifying this as a "Perfect Prank", it is a valid question, can be answered in a logical and civilized manner but was [probably] planted with full knowledge that many would answer with their fully engaged projections and prejudices!

I hope the new Congress acts niggardly towards the Keynesian.

I agree, it was so obvious that it took me a moment to figure out why all of these idiots were answering with anti-birther crap.
