This video scares me to death! These are the people who are voting in this year's election. I don't care if you're for Obama, Romney or none of the above. As an American this is scary to watch. There is no such thing as a "First Lady Debate", yet these people are more than willing to weigh in on its results. It's no wonder our great country is in such a mess.
In a similar vein, there was another person who interviewed people on the street about who they were supporting in the Presidential election. For example the person was asked if they were okay with Joe Biden being Mitt Romney's running mate. "Oh yes! I think it's great!", would come the ill informed reply. Any half-way informed person would know that's a mixed ticket. If you're going to vote for somebody, don't you think you should at least know who his running mate is?
I truly believe people should have to take a BASIC, BASIC, BASIC test to be eligible to vote. I'm not talking about anything that would disqualify your average Joe or having a working expertise of the electoral college. Just enough to know you have some semblance of understanding of what (or who) you are actually voting for.
