Video: How Obama Got Elected
Cross posted on Grizzly Groundswell
I wrote a post about a poll that was done by Zogby in which Obama supporters were interviewed about several issues that came up during the campaign. This poll concluded that Barack Obama supporters were misinformed about the issues.
When asked about negative issues that came out against the candidates, the majority of Obama supporters didn’t know anything about William Ayers, or Barney Frank, or Joe Biden promising an attack if Obama was elected, but they did know about Sarah Palin and her pregnant daughter and about the campaign spending !50,000 on her wardrobe. A majority of Obama supporters (57%) didn’t even know which party controlled congress.
Today I give you a video of some of those being interviewed. I think the most interesting part of the video is when asked which candidate said that he campaigned in 57 states all of them replied something to the effect of, “it sounds like something Sarach Palin would say.” This is in indictment of the portrayal of Sarah Palin in the mainstream media.
Here is the video with a hat tip to Political Vindication.
America's Watchtower 
The political ignorance in this country is astounding. I’ve seen it personally. They say it’s change they can believe in, but when asked what that change is, they can’t tell you.

I find it interesting that by far Educators donated an astounding amount of money to Obama. It is axiomatic that only leftist, liberal scholars get jobs in Universities. Of course there are a few, very few non-leftists in Universities. All this stems from the Viet Nam War when educators were granted exemptions from the draft, and candidates for Masters and Ph.Ds were also granted exemption.
Therefore, the educational process over the last forty years has been controlled by a liberal framework established by draft-dodgers trying to justify their cowardice or their lack of sense of duty. We are probably into the third generation of a very liberal leadership in Universities. Of course, these people allow people like the President of Iran to speak, but deny that privilege to Ann Coulter and other conservatives.
Perhaps we are becoming a nation of liberals brainwashed by the educational system lead by leftist elitest.

Great video! I live in South America were socialism, unfortunately, has spread like a desease thanks to the same ignorance this video demonstrates. I pray that America can hold strong, as the beacon to liberty and hope it has been the past 200 years.
