I mean, he mispronounced Keynesian (CANES-ee-an). He pronounced it KEN-zee-an. So, although he may have found some people who didn't know what Keynesian meant, he also probably found some people who misheard, like that woman who said "I thought you said Kenyan." It doesn't reflect too well on him that he is criticizing people for not knowing the difference between Kenyan and Keynesian, while he isn't pronouncing Keynesian properly.
@krustykelvin It's unclear how close the sign was to the people he was talking to, and whether the sign was even there for any of the people he interviewed other than the first woman, because the sign is only shown once, in a brief cutaway, and is only mentioned in the first woman's part. I agree, the people in this video are not particularly brilliant, but they aren't the dumbest people out there.

@masterskyrunner The point is, that if you go to a rally, and get to select through all of your hours of footage, and even then you have to resort to mispronouncing the name in order to get enough people looking foolish to fill a 1 minute 47 second video, then it indicates that the people at that rally were not as dumb as the video's author would like to portray them as.
lol "I don't see how it's relevant to his presidency"
Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution sets the principal qualifications one must meet to be eligible to the office of president. A president must:
@liual90 The Keynesian Macroeconomic Theory has nothing to do with your race or nationality.
It was a deeply flawed economic ideology developed by John Keynes in the 1930's, where you borrow money and give it to corporations with the hope that you can tax your way out of it, all at the expense of the poor and the middle class.
@masterskyrunner Anyone who took high school history would know that, buddy. I was pointing out how clearly biased his assertion was...do you not understand that being a citizen is a pre-requisite for presidency?
@liual90 Actually, I took high school macroeconomics and AP World History fairly recently (a some years ago, I don't think the curriculum changed) and neither the man Keynes nor the term Keynesian ever came up, neither did Murray Rothbard and Austrian Economics....
@liual90 lol What was the argument in the first place?
Basically, you said that anyone who took a high school history course would know what a Keynesian is, to which I replied, not at my old high school, and I haven't met many people that have a knowledge of Keynesian theory.
Perhaps you could start with a statement stating your argument, instead of saying that I'm arguing semantics for replying to a rhetoric you stated in the first place.
@liual90 If it was the citizen prerequisite for the presidential office, then that argument hasn't even began, so I couldn't be losing it, and it won't because I agree: To run for and become President in this country, you need to be a natural born citizen of the United States.
A CEO of a Corporation does not need to have a birth cert. This so called Gov. is a Corporation so what's the point of arguing if he even has one or not? The Problem is so much deeper!
@BlueFluidStudios And any other supporters from the US would do any better, actually, let me rephrase that, anybody from the US would do any better! Now I know that is a little harsh, but it is a general view, not meaning everybody! How many of these people looked up the word before they commented!
@Inovocre12 true, Personally I would have questioned the interviewer because keynesian doesn't sound like a country. but most of the U.S. would probably get it wrong.
I'm waiting for the fanatic Keynesians to state that "True Keynesian hasn't been implemented in our era." That's not very different from communist fanatics saying, "True Marxist communism hasn't been implemented yet." Yes, these people are more enlightened than us "ignorant" libertarians for not understanding an economic policy -- as it fails throughout history.
if only keynesian economics were used the way it was designed to be used, giving the money / help to PEOPLE to restart economy, instead of bailing out corrupted banks and corporations, the fact is, Keynesian's teachings were NEVER used the way it was supposed to be, period.
@quinnpainter The same can be said for pretty much every single one of these silly bits where someone acting as if they're conducting "man-on-the-street" interviews talks to people, with the results then selectively edited to show what total morons those people (and by implication, the larger population of people with whom they are identified) are. And yeah, they often seem a bit lame when one bears that in mind.....
@n10dkf The lopsided majority of people in this country are products of the American educational system...are they all stupid? Were you yourself educated in US public schools or nt? If not: so you know what the logical fallacy of "petitio principii" is, and that you committed it?
Obviously there is a small percentage of people who fell for this, as is true with any video that attempts to prove one political party is stupid. These people were attempting to not look stupid by going along with it, and it makes them look fucking stupid. But it doesn't mean all liberals are stupid, and it certainly does not make this guy the "best troll ever dude".
As far as I can see, the video isn't trying to generalize any group as stupid.
It's definitely making those people look like idiots and rightfully so-- they're out there rallying and they have no idea what the economic theory guiding the last several decades of our government is? Give me a break. They're dumb and I'm glad they were tricked into showing how dumb they are on camera for my entertainment .
ocrapa supporters (not just in this video), sure seem to be predomoinantly ignorant! I went to public (government) school and even I continued my education past what is required, in order to make myself better. - - It is sad to see how many people do just the minimum to educate themselves!!!!!!
Not Kenyan, for fuck's sake. It's bad enough that liberals don't know economics, but it's even more astounding that they don't know their geography. Fuck.
What about this rumor going around? An intensive investigation has revealed the identity of the man whose Social Security number (SSN) is being used by President Obama: Jean Paul Ludwig, who was born in France in 1890, immigrated to the United States in 1924, and was assigned SSN 042-68-4425 (Obama's current SSN) on or about March 1977.
"You can't keep up to your promises, you know what he put forward, you know by what he promised, you know, but you can see what he did in his first, you know, two years......" WHAT?
@MrSuperswag2011 lol i think you missed the joke? keynes/keynesian is a type of economics... its not related to kenya, the video is just intended to show that most people are too stupid to know what keynesian economics are & why theyre destroying the economy!
So, is Ron Paul not electable because he's Austrian? Now, THAT's confusing!
0:33- no comment! I am not an American, and even I know that you cannot run for president, if youu weren't born there. Why are there so many people(in all countries and of all colours) who flaunt their devotion to political causes without familiarizing themselves with fundamental issues, laws etc?
The law of the conservation of stupidity dictates that for every person with above average intelligence, there must be one that is below average. Unfortunately, the "Below averages" tend to congregate in swarms, like the Occupy Wall Street dimwits.

I am a conservative, but I abhore such oversimplifying generalizations. While they might be useful, one should beware of the people who are seduced so easily. Tomorrow, it may turn against him!
@elendil77 yeah it's so true. this is why i'm not a big fan of american politics, it's always the parties attacking each other 24/7 on a personal, exaggerated level. i think people should be able to debate their views without becoming enemies. and i just wish there was more compromise than hostility in politics.
Well, I would have to disaggree on that one. Many ideological positions are irreconcilable, so technically they are "enemies". In a way democracy is a balance of power. However, if there is no civility and order, we might as well solve our differences on the battlefield, it's no more primitive than most of what we can see in political discourse on either side of the Atlantic.
Also, I came here to laugh because the level of indoctrination (voluntary, of course) exhibited by many Obama voters is too ridiculous even in the pitiful state of modern politics that you and I obviously agree on.
I wish I lived in the US so I could go to all of the rallies with an "Obama is a Keynesian" sign, and an AR-15 on my back like that awesome guy in those healthcare protest videos.
@MeanEyedCats I know what you mean. I think its funny that when they showed that video on the news, they were saying how they are racists and carry guns...but the guy with the gun was black lol
I asked this question, as a joke, to my leftist academic colleagues at the university I work at. Know the response? An illiterate hothead "physicist" (in quotations because he's obviously a fraud) had a bonafide temper-tantrum, yelled in my face, got all red in the face and hyperventilating, paced back and forth as he freaked out, calling me a RACIST, for about 10 minutes straight, before he calmed down. I still don't think he knows that Austrian vs Keynes isn't about Nazi's who hate Africans.
@thyland726 I barely made it through highschool and know more about economics than these folks, it's pretty funny how stupid some of these folks are. And yes, the BC is an insultingly fake, fake, they didn't even try that hard to fake it.
LMAO what a bunch of fucking idiots ..too much junk food and too much tv ..please note I know not all Americans are all fucking stupid ..just the stupid ones
@OfficiaNewWorldOrder I can't believe I'm actually agreeing with the New World Order... Yes, after seeing this video, I think Eugenics is a good idea.
I just noticed something else about this video. Now "despite" these idiots "CONFUSING" the word Keynesian with being Kenyan...
Keynes - economic theory
Kenyan - native to the country Kenya
The fools brought up the argument that "Being Born in Kenya shouldn't matter to his being president." OK.. do they KNOW that it's the law to be a natural born citizen to be president??
@lolanimations I was thinking the exact same thing when the idiotic hippie said it.. It DOES matter!!! But these people have absolutely no standards, everything is relative and everything can be justified so long as it suits their needs.
So on top of being illiterate and outrageously stupid, they're actually pretty fucking dangerous.. as I'm sure the OWS movement will soon demonstrate.
@lolanimations i think they know, but they were more trying to point out that people's capacity for critical thinking and observation is wacked. its like the famous, "Ban Dihydrogen Monoxide" thing from a few years ago, all people saw was "Scary sounding chemical compound" and a list of what it can do (like eat through limestone, or cause corrosion of metal), and they signed the petition.
@lolanimations It illustrates the fact that Americans, A) don't know key terms or vocabulary, B) can't observe or think critically or objectively, If someone of decent education stopped thinking with their emotions and actually READ the sign, instead of reading the first three letters of Keynesian, and used the wrong context clue. they would of seen what the sign was actually saying.
@lolanimations Not that I disagree with your comment, but this is from the Rally to Restore Sanity, not OWS. That said, there are plenty of videos proving how dumb the bulk of OWS people are, so it's not as if that's any better. If anything, it's worse.
@lolanimations You have to be a natural born citizen but that does not mean you have to be born in the country, rather it means you have to be a citizen from birth which can happen either by being born on American land or by being born of an American citizen. In Obama's case his mother was an American citizen therefore none of the other stuff matters because that by itself makes him a natural born citizen.
According to these morons, Ron Paul went to school in Austria, and Obama is a Keynesian from Kenya.
I actually had a intelligent response to this video and tried to find out what a Keynesian is online. I am also intelligent enough that I'm going to vote for Ron Paul in 2012!
What really gets me about this video is not that they are all too stupid to know what Keynesian means, but how no one asks what it means!! They just pretend to know and then sound stupid......... if you don't know, ask! That is part of the problem with Mainstream Media, people will just blindly believe anything without asking
What a Hoot!! Problem is... = These people are obviously lost - lost at sea..lost in space - just plain Fuckin'Lost. = Trouble is... There are literally millions of the UtterlyLost out there!! = Be that as it may... BE ADVISED: WeThePeople are bein' set up yet again in ways we have not even imagined or foreseen! Obama is a Traitor and should be immediately arrested & prosecuted as such, as well as many of his minions. = Obama must go - Before it is too late. = V >
Wow, some of these folks are REALLY stupid. The only guy that got it right was the one who said he did not know where Obama stood on economics.

I asked this question, as a joke, to my leftist academic colleagues at the university I work at. Know the response? An illiterate hothead "physicist" (in quotations because he's obviously a fraud) had a bonafide temper-tantrum, yelled in my face, got all red in the face and hyperventilating, paced back and forth as he freaked out, calling me a RACIST, for about 10 minutes straight, before he calmed down. I still don't think he knows that Austrian vs Keynes isn't about Nazi's who hate Africans.

I just noticed something else about this video. Now "despite" these idiots "CONFUSING" the word Keynesian with being Kenyan...
Keynes - economic theory
Kenyan - native to the country Kenya
The fools brought up the argument that "Being Born in Kenya shouldn't matter to his being president." OK.. do they KNOW that it's the law to be a natural born citizen to be president??

@lolanimations I was thinking the exact same thing when the idiotic hippie said it.. It DOES matter!!! But these people have absolutely no standards, everything is relative and everything can be justified so long as it suits their needs.
So on top of being illiterate and outrageously stupid, they're actually pretty fucking dangerous.. as I'm sure the OWS movement will soon demonstrate.

@lolanimations i think they know, but they were more trying to point out that people's capacity for critical thinking and observation is wacked. its like the famous, "Ban Dihydrogen Monoxide" thing from a few years ago, all people saw was "Scary sounding chemical compound" and a list of what it can do (like eat through limestone, or cause corrosion of metal), and they signed the petition.
AgentExeider 4 months ago
@lolanimations It illustrates the fact that Americans, A) don't know key terms or vocabulary, B) can't observe or think critically or objectively, If someone of decent education stopped thinking with their emotions and actually READ the sign, instead of reading the first three letters of Keynesian, and used the wrong context clue. they would of seen what the sign was actually saying.
AgentExeider 4 months ago
@lolanimations Not that I disagree with your comment, but this is from the Rally to Restore Sanity, not OWS. That said, there are plenty of videos proving how dumb the bulk of OWS people are, so it's not as if that's any better. If anything, it's worse.
thepiperreason0 4 months ago
@lolanimations You have to be a natural born citizen but that does not mean you have to be born in the country, rather it means you have to be a citizen from birth which can happen either by being born on American land or by being born of an American citizen. In Obama's case his mother was an American citizen therefore none of the other stuff matters because that by itself makes him a natural born citizen.

According to these morons, Ron Paul went to school in Austria, and Obama is a Keynesian from Kenya.
I actually had a intelligent response to this video and tried to find out what a Keynesian is online. I am also intelligent enough that I'm going to vote for Ron Paul in 2012!
Jender42 4 months ago
What really gets me about this video is not that they are all too stupid to know what Keynesian means, but how no one asks what it means!! They just pretend to know and then sound stupid......... if you don't know, ask! That is part of the problem with Mainstream Media, people will just blindly believe anything without asking
