There are enough tribes on both sides - people that reflexively vote because of their own personal single issue: abortion, sexual preference, "the war," 2nd amendment... I know people on the right or left who are single-issue voters... not just race.

(though that Howard Stern routine is a great illustration of a part of our voting population).

If I were black I would vote for Obamma even if he wanted to bring back black slavery. well maybe not if he was pro-black-slavery. But I would definately give him my vote just because he's a "brother" and I would be proud to admit it. Assuming everyone voted by race he would get blown out of the water. I can't wait to see how this goes.

We churn out the most retarded, least educated individuals in the world and then task them with placing an informed vote for the leader of the most powerful nation on earth.

I'm surprised it hasn't fallen down before now.

Institutionalized education was never the intent of the founding fathers.

Voters should have to pass a test before being allowed to vote. I don't know what the test would be, but it seems there should be one.

No wonder there were so many "hanging chads" in the "W'04" election. It wasn't just because old people couldn't push the pins through.

Did anyone not expect this kind of stuff?

I'm not surprised. Just like I wasn't surprised when last week a McCain supporter didn't like Obama b/c she thought/thinks Obama is an Arab. To his credit, McCain quickly corrected her.

Ignorance on both sides.

The popular vote means about as much as the American Idol vote. Its the electoral that makes or breaks the election.

The problem, though, is that there are a higher number of dumb people on the east and west coasts. They breed, vote, and cancel out the smarter people in the middle.

Liberals actually run the government. They make up the vast majority of the bureaucracy. The politicians come and go but the "system" remains.

My Uncle would rather put a bullet through his head than vote for a Republican.

Blind and stupid.


Hey Tedd, who was the last Republican you voted for?

How bout we should add to our water supplies birth control- just like chlorine, fluoride- but those who wish to procreate must be of legal age, prove that they are prepared to raise the kid properly through age 18, etc. etc.

An old girlfriend of mine who was heavily involved in childcare and the federal Head Start program actually suggested this.

Whatcha think?

He's going to sit this one out, I suppose.

The local Democratic representative (whom I voted into office), Lincoln Davis, ALSO voted NO.

Twice.

I did call his office in Washington and in TN to let his staff know that I would work diligently to vote him out of office should he do otherwise as I did for the two TN Senators who voted YES.

The Republican representative running against Davis at the time wasn't acceptable.

It's an interesting bit of comedy. However, one could do the same with Obama's policies and attribute them to McCain and interview people in my neighborhood (predominantly white) and get the same incongruous reactions. It's funny, but should be no basis for a political argument for or against.

Keep in mind this was an edited piece of entertainment and its sole purpose was to entertain.

Institutionalized education was never the intent of the founding fathers.

Neither was our two party system and many other anomalies part of the original intention.

I'm sure the FF's would be livid!

The largest anomaly is the corruption of the "Interstate Commerce" clause.
