25% of Republicans believe Obama is the antichrist

Looks like a pretty biased and narrow poll. I'd like to see the question asked and the list of answers people had to choose from.

But the real question, is: can you give the people what they want?

I'd say if we had the "stupid test" for voters, i would expect it to be much like the citizenship test. I mean, what percentage of americans do you think would be able to pass THAT test. If i had to hazard a guess, only 65-80%. In fact, thats a great idea, make every voter take the citizenship test! You fail, you dont vote! try again next year!

The goal should never be to weed voters out. We should be looking for a way to get every potential voter to vote. :-/

I think it'd be more appropriate to try to make every person who votes actually understand what they're voting for to some decent degree.

That sounds like a great idea for keeping poor people from voting. Let's do it.

I hate polls. Let's poll 2000 people and say that speaks for millions. I just don't buy it.

Not that it was in question, but republican ≠ conservative. I like try to distance myself from the cooks regardless.

I haven't actually looked into how polling works, but I suspect it's based on the idea that beyond a large enough group of people (such as this poll's 2000) the variation in opinion decreases to a point where it's statistically insignificant (save for margin of error), because the people polled also come from different enough backgrounds (you could use the word heterogenic) that affects their opinion.
Looks like we're not going down after all, so nevermind.

The classic! Still funny (in the vain of Mentat's). It's really just as unfair as the poll originally in question, but still a funny video regardless.

My history teacher always said, "Stupid people should never be excluded from voting. However, if stupid people vote, you get stupid stupid government". That's what I pretty much believe nowadays, and I think the US is a perfect example :)

I am quite poor.

However, I was able to answer 92 of the 100 possible questions on the Naturalization Test. I think I probably would have gotten 95 if I wasn't speeding through it and I had an actual judge instead of sample answers. Here's what I missed:

40. Who is the Chief Justice of the United States?
[INDENT] A: John Roberts (John G. Roberts, Jr.)
I said Scalia (he was the first justice I thought of)
[/INDENT]

49. What is one responsibility that is only for United States citizens?
[INDENT] A: serve on a jury, vote
I didn't understand the question and didn't care enough to think about it
[/INDENT]

50. What are two rights only for United States citizens?
[INDENT] A: apply for a federal job, vote, run for office, carry a U.S. passport
Same as above
[/INDENT]

66. When was the Constitution written?
[INDENT] A: 1787
Yeah, I didn't know. I knew it was a while after the Declaration in 1776.
[/INDENT]


67. The Federalist Papers supported the passage of the U.S. Constitution. Name one of the writers.
[INDENT] A: (James) Madison, (Alexander) Hamilton, (John) Jay, Publius
Didn't know. I said Thomas Paine (but I don't know who that is).
[/INDENT]

68. What is one thing Benjamin Franklin is famous for?
[INDENT] A: U.S. diplomat, oldest member of the Constitutional Convention, first Postmaster General of the United States, writer of "Poor Richard's Almanac", started the first free libraries
My answers were being a bad ass, bangin' French *****es, having bad taste in birds, "discovering" electricity, building the first (American) paper mill, and rockin' the ganj'. I think that would have been good enough, right?
[/INDENT]


69. Who is the "Father of Our Country"?
[INDENT] A: (George) Washington
Yeah, I said Uncle Sam. Stupid question anyway.
[/INDENT]

77. What did Susan B. Anthony do?
[INDENT] A: fought for women's rights, fought for civil rights
No clue
[/INDENT]

79. Who was President during World War I?
[INDENT] A: (Woodrow) Wilson
lol War
[/INDENT]

A couple things to note:

I never had a US History teacher in high school. I took AP US History for a year, but the man in charge of that class certainly did not do anything resembling teaching. Only 1 person in my graduating class passed that AP test.

But more importantly, when you take the actual test you are only asked 10 questions. And you only have to get 6 of them right.

(Oh and by the way, much like AoEJedi's aunt's black guy, I voted for Obama because I thought he would lower unemployment more/faster than McCain. [Among other reasons.])

There are a decent number of people who also believe Obama is a communist/nazi/muslim etc... It doesn't seem to make a difference anymore. The real issue is people who think Obama is any "bad word." If a word has a negative connotation in American society, many people seem more than happy to label Obama with that term.
