For several months leading up to the election, I was telling friends and family that Obama would win because too many people would vote for him based on silly reasons. Then on Nov 5th, I posted this on Craigslist:

"This is a shameful day for America, especially for many who voted for Obama. Most who voted for Obama treated the election as if it were an American Idol contest. Even Obama himself is smart enough to realize that a large number of the people who voted for him are uneducated when it comes to politics and the actual issues. They voted for silly reasons. Most blacks voted for Obama because of race. Most young, college aged people voted for Obama because they see him as being stylish, flashy, and hip. After all, he likes hip-hop, plays basketball, used drugs when he was their age, and supports abortion, which young people love because it's an easy way of getting out of responsibility after a night of partying too hard - Oh! The truth sucks, doesn't it?"

Most of the replies I received were from hate filled, pot-smoking, narcisistic, retarded liberals. I did however recieve this email from an intelligent person who agreed:

"As a registered independent, I agree with you 100%. Many ignorant people voted for BO for silly, childish reasons. Yet, we keep hearing people on the left and even that fraud, Bill O'reily of Fixed News, who always tries to look like a fair man in the middle, say things like "democracy worked." BS! The system is obviously flawed in such a way that even people who don't know anything about the issues can vote. Just look at the large percentage of Hispanics who voted for BO. Are these people retarded? If they knew about political issues, they would have voted for John McCain who tried hard to pass an amnesty bill that would have helped their friends and relatives.

The reason America is in the ditch these days, is because the lowest common denominator is at the helm. A society should be driven by the highest common denominator. And this is why there should be a test for people who want to vote. Every 4 years people who want to vote should have to show that they have some knowledge of the issues. You fail the test and you don't vote. That's it and you can try again in 4 years."

Now somene has come out with a video that shows I and the person who sent me the above email were right. Take a look at the video for yourself, and keep in mind that the people being interviewed were not selected by a conservative, but by a black woman for their apparent intelligence/verbal abilities. So it was done fairly.

Many of you recall the interview done by the Howard Stern show prior to the election:
