Over 90% of American voters are incapable of critical thinking.

It's worse than that. Most people don't think at all, let alone critically. You can watch it all over this board as a microcosm of the entire country. Except even here, at least people pay attention, even if they fail miserably to stay objective and keep facts/truth more favorable than a party affiliation.

People are fucking retarded. That's the nice way of putting it.

How do you cope with it? The more I learn the more depressing it gets!

The constitution has been slowly gutted by both parties. It has not been in effect in any of our lifetime & it is not going to come back for the rest of our life. Just figure out how to live within the new ever changing rules. They are still shredding the few remnants of the constitution. Obama signed the NDAA & Romney said he would sign it, so it is over. Below is the current state of the Bill of Rights.

Even if 'W' was selected instead of elected; many people did in fact vote for him.
There can be no more eloquent commentary on intelligence level.

Sad...

We have become a society that doesn't even understand the dangers of socialism.

With the oligarchs pulling the strings.

Sad...

We have become a society that doesn't even understand the dangers of socialism.

Nor the dangers of capitalism, or any 'ism' for that matter. Understanding of religion, science, psychology are woefully lacking.

People seem more fixed on deciding what to think and not at all on how to think.

Yeah, because you making shit up is much more credible. Please, tell me more of how your opinions which have no context should be believed over others?

I consider myself a student of American history. I love the story of the revolution, the hope and courage the founding men and women had and their prayer of a free society.

I don't think you're a very good student.

If you were, you'd know the founding generation weren't as concerned with personal freedom as they were with establishing a country free of control by a government far away from them and not necessarily concerned with their interests. In other words, they thought the personal freedom they had was fine. They just wanted to control it.

Great. Thanks for the lesson! Care to add anything in relation to the actual main idea of the topic?

An example of mian stream American critical thinking!

I consider myself a student of American history. I love the story of the revolution, the hope and courage the founding men and women had and their prayer of a free society. And then...I look at us today, and all I can feel is pity. Not pity for you, but pity for the men and women whose blood, sweat, tears, and even bodies are lost to the flow of history; those that worked to make you free, and me free, and possibly all other peoples free. And then I look at today. I look at over 90% of voters who choose to vote for their own slavery. These people who vote to have an unjust ruling class subjugate the fruits of their labor at gun point. These people who vote to have an unjust ruling class dictate what they do with their own bodies...I could go on. Where is the desire to be free? Why have 90% of Americans instead chosen to be babied by a ruling class who does not give one shit about them, and only about themselves and staying in power? Why is it so hard to understand, that if you vote for a republican or a democrat you are voting to hurt yourself, your family, and those you love? Why...pray tell, are you so fucking stupid?

Why? Our unjust ruling class is a lot better than that of other countries. If you are so smart, why don't you move to China or Russia or Germany or Zambia or Fiji?

Well there's one feller up their saying that the other feller sucks and the other feller gets up and says the same exact thing.

I'd rather watch something informative like Honey Boo Boo.

There's always something peculiar about people who present themselves as patriots who happen to hate Americans.

Let's hope this astounding media corruption is just them patronizing the first black POTUS and hoping beyond hope that he does not fail.

But that failure ship has done sailed as Owebama has shit all over himself.

The founding fathers would be appalled at the concept of Libertarianism. Just like the majority of Americans today are
