He's telling the truth. The Republicans figured out a long time ago that the working class is mostly... well, stupid. And I know what I'm talking about, because I'm from a blue collar family, and grew up on a Mill Hill. All you have to do is say you love Baby Jeebus, and hate faggots, baby killers, and niggers, and you've got the blue collar vote. And it's absolutely disgusting, because what these people don't realize is that the people they're voting for think they're the scum of the earth.

well that worked out great, didn't it?

So Obama didn't carry West Virginia, (or did he, I can't remember, but my gut says nooooooo). Neither did the Confederacy;-). You just can't pin down the Western Region of Virginia, first colony of this great Nation, Mother or Presidents, motto Sic Semper Tyrannus.

Fuck you, Jenk. I think it's fairly obvious you haven't actually spent any significant time in the State, but it's alright, you know everything you need to know about West Virginian voters based on a few selected (admittedly hilarious) clips of old bigots being polled early in an election cycle. Nah, it's cool, I forgive you for being patronizing and condescending. As someone who did some growing up in West Virginia, I appreciate the now President's assessment of the local character.

@BrandonSchleifer I like educating all but not paying teacher, who are the most important people in this world when they are actually good at there job. What I think people need is not overall greater education but more political education rather than social studies. You will learn where every country that is important, all the economic issues in the world and whats just happening around us with a simple class about current political issues, social studies should be an honors elective

If you really think that your vote counts, then the best thing you can do is write in "none of the above". Everyone i've heard of who votes all say the same thing, 'the lesser of the evils'. I say evil is still evil, It reminds me of The Matrix, too many sleeping humans protecting the thing that enslaves them.

@Zubirrex That's why Technocracy is better then Democracy. Technocracy is a form of government where the ruling power is the skilled or smart. In a technocracy, you'd pretty much need a bachelor's degree to vote, rather then needing to be 18. Of course, the solution to the obvious problem (money) is to make undergraduate education free. I'm not saying certain people shouldn't be allowed to vote, I'm just saying they should get an education first, so that they aren't idiots.
