    Simple---the election reflects the electorate.

    A man like Trump seems like great choice if you either have not educated yourself to know better or just aren't smart enough to realize how dangerous he is as president.

    So the electorate got dumber then? Is there a specific cause to which you can point? Bad nutrition? Brainwashing? Hypnosis? Mental declination? Thank you for your reply tom!

    Because of "the poverty of the human mind and the fertility of the human body."

    I read that quote years ago and though I would never forget where I heard it.  I tried to google the quote and could not find it that way.

    I just tried to find it again with a few tweaks in the wording and I could not.

    If I ever come across it in my travels or noes, I'll send it to you

  • Sure, Obama taught constitutional law, he just never understood it.(or never wanted to understand it). His career as a civil rights attorney was so celebrated and of such renown, that no one can recall a single case of any substance. The one I like is his dynamic Senate career. The only time the man came through the door of the Senate was to be sworn in. Afterwards, he was a missing person.
