(I see it as a failure of the public school system to have bred a generations of frightened/ignorant/misinformed/impressionable people)
I can only surmise that you thought that stuffed shirt, horse faced, gigolo J.F. Scarey was an improvement???

If there is any indication as to how stupid the American population is, it's the fact that we allow ourselves to be reduced to making a choice between two SOB's we would have never picked in the first place if we really had a choice.

As FDR, the patron saint of the left pointed out, "There are no accidents in politics."

BTW, Had the Donks had run Bob Kerrey, I would have voted for him.

And BTW, I wouldn't get to thinking that you're smarter than you actually are. There are a lot of people who disagree with your position who are not fools...not by a long shot.

Ringo was the most popular on the lads first tour of the states.

My useless information container has been overflowing, and I'm spilling some of it today.

The guy is a genius. I don't mean that in the colloquial, overused sense of the word.

I’ve had the same experience watching Ron Paul. The guy is a loon, but I’m often surprised how many things he says that I agree with. Paul, however, isn’t a genius. But seems like an honest guy.

I think Lenin ended up with an overinflated brain, though his music was more original than Pauls imo. I did and do like Ringo. Bet he'd be the funnest to hang out with. Acting naturally lol.

Of course Kucinich is smart. The aliens added brain juice and secret knowledge during the exam
