While I am not shocked in the least to see how completely moronic and uneducated these people are, the implication (whether intended or not) is that
McCain voters were smarter. The fact is that anyone who voted Republican or Democrat simply does not get it; we have become a two-party tyranny and
neither party is beholden to the people anymore. The parties are vehicles for the elite and business elite to centralize power in the hands of a
select few. The real interesting poll would have covered supporters of both parties.

Very good observation. While I am amongst those who think Obama was elected for less than intelligent reasons, I do recognize that the underlying
problem is our polarized political system and the corruption and under-table deals between the parties. However, as I've said, I do think that a lot
of the votes for Obama were based on propaganda and ignorance, more so than for McCain. Does this mean McCain's voters were smarter? Absolutely
not, just that, and I keep repeating this, so sorry for anyone who's already read it, Obama made himself into a product, and we bought it.

On Election day twelve Obama voters were interviewed extensively right after they voted to learn how the news media impacted their knowledge of
what occurred during the campaign. IMO the reason why these people failed the quiz is simple, it’s because honest hard working people of the USA
don't have enough time in their lives to dedicate to their own families and lives let alone to research about who they are voting for. Or the time to
learn about the current political system to correctly answer all of the 12 questions they were asked in this poll. This means that the small amount of
time that they do have to research comes from what the media tells them, so I wouldn't expect any other outcome than this one! I also believe that
the people who made this video obviously selected from all the interviews they made that day only the ones that fit their biased view. It is fairly
easy to see that these people work for the Status Quo Media and are very pathetic individuals out to wreck the only HOPE we have left for a collapsed
Political/Financial system. I really do hope for the sake of humanity that Obama has our nation’s future in his thoughts every day and I will be one
of millions who will work my fingers to the bone to make that a reality. Sometimes I catch myself doubting whether it is already too late and Obama is
there to paint a picture of "Well we tried to fix it, you saw us try didn't you?".
