How Obama Got Elected Video: Does this represent Obama voters?

Political Pirate June 10, 2009 19:03:31

Watch the "How Obama Got Elected" Video which interviews a bunch of Obama voters who don't who controls the Congress, but knows Palin has a pregnant teenage daughter. All of these Obama voters were asked the same questions and seemed to know nothing about their candidate of choice, but all the negatives of the Republican candidates they wouldn't vote for. Interesting, especially after the fact. The video is from howobamagotelected.com if you're interested.



What do you think about these Obama voters?
 Yes! Obama voters are ignorant! That's how Obama got elected.
No. The "How Obama Got Elected" video does not represent Obama voters correctly.
I think the video "How Obama got Elected"....

    How McCain would have gotten elected if smart people hadn't voted for Obama.

    What did you make when you sewed? I believe the word is sown.

    Sewed, though not the first instance of to sew's past participles is, indeed, an acceptable use of the inflected form of the aforementioned transitive verb. Having said all that, the correct spelling of sown in this situation is sewn. You still get an "A" for even caring!

    The video just show some people and their thoughts. To correlate that to ALL Obama voters, is not reasonable, unless all McCain Voters are Stupid Racists, per the following video. Think people!

    lol...that was funny. but that is another point of view that can be debated as being as equally biased as the first. not all mccain supporters were racist. in fact, many of them were happy obama won over hilary. some even feared that outcome because they were sure he'd beat mccain. they hated the fact that, simply because they supported mccain, people automatically assumed they were racist. a lot of blacks also took heat if they did not support obama.

    I'm glad you thought it was funny, as it was meant to be. It showed the idiocy of, and was a direct rebuttal to, this poll.

    Yes! Obama voters are ignorant! That's how Obama got elected.

    Among the many who do not vote are those who think the Republicans are too far left and the Democrats are even worse. This also applies to some who voted for minor parties. Considering that most senators and congressmen have not learned from history that increases in tax stiffles the national economy while tax cuts stimulate private enterprise and thus national prosperity, it is not surprising that a large number of voters are equally ignorant. Then there was corruption in the Republican officeholders that may not be anything like that of the Dodds and Franks, but is a turnoff.

    No. The "How Obama Got Elected" video does not represent Obama voters correctly.

    You can not judge all of the people who supported the President on what these few people and what they did or did not know. This is the same reason that I don't pay attention to polls. There are lots of uniformed people in the United States on issues of importants. As a nation we are ignorant about each others cultures and beliefs.

    That is why this underminding video was made by someone who wanted to prove there stupid point of view.

    I could go to any neighborhood, village or suburb in the united states and make any number of people seem uninformed about something by asking certain questions.

    The dumb stuff that they asked about Palin and her daughter was known because the "media" made it some major issue. Like unwed teenage pregnacy was something new.

    Ok - so you are saying that we can't judge all the people who voted for Obama by those uniformed on this video. THEN SHAME ON ALL THE "INFORMED" PEOPLE WHO STILL VOTED FOR OBAMA.

    That is exactly what I am saying! Who do people think that they are that they should judge anybody. Unless that's their occupation. The bible states "Judge not lest ye be judged" So when you start judging people, just remember it will be your turn next.

    Your words "prove there stupid point of view"...... you judged! Oh! Oh!

    Seriously, we are all guilty of judging others. But, I think the Bible's warning on this is judging others for "sins" they have committed when we are all sinners. Having different opinions about politics is not a sin. Yes, I think we are guilty of being inconsiderate when we attack someones personality just because they have a difference of opinion.

    I don't have time to pull up your posting - but I do believe this is how YOU spelled it. I noticed it but then again, I was quoting you - hence the quotation remarks. I wouldn't have stooped so low as to point it out to you though.

    I went back and looked at your posting and spelling error....and my memory didn't fail me.

    Childish or not the original point still stands. If it makes you feel better,

    I'M SORRY! YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT MY MISTAKE!!

    Hope this makes the world continue to go around for you!

    Get a life!! All of this line of B.S. (original subject matter) is irrelavent we elected a new president and alot of this nation is so prejudice that they will not let this kind of stuff go. Talk about childish and immature!

    The world was elated about Obama's election!! Accept a few losers!!

    Some of you still don't like it like him, just some of us didn't like our last president!! Get over it!!
  • AlyxSara gww INDY June 17, 2009 14:06:45

    I don't need your apology - especially one that was so insincere.

    Our feelings has nothing to do with prejudice. We are not childish and immature because we are paying close attention to what is happening. This is something you need to do. There's a posting on this site that people listed the reasons they are deeply concerned about Obama. I suggest you find it and read it.

    I think the video "How Obama got Elected"....

    I don't know if this represents all of those who voted for President Obama, but I think it represents a good many of them. I also don't think it would have made much difference to them if they were more informed. Like the one lady stated, she was still going to vote for Obama. Also, most of them seemed to like the idea of socialism. They like Obama's words; he makes them feel good. They voted for an image, an ideal - they don't want to be confused with reality. Liberalism is based in emotional responses, not on rational thought.
  • gww INDY jer1five June 10, 2009 20:20:38

    All and any of us who vote, vote for an idea and a image, and something called faith. No political figure past or present has kept every promise, came through with all of their agenda or pleased everybody. In fact if you think about it, what some of you want is not even humanly possible.

    No. The "How Obama Got Elected" video does not represent Obama voters correctly.

    First off, this video is six months old and it was tired even when it was new. Second, out of 69,000,000 voters supporting the President, it's not difficult to find the 1/10 of 1% who are morons.

    It's like saying that ALL Republicans are complete idiots just because this guy is:

    voters supporting president difficult 110 1 morons republicans idiots guy

    Look at the idiot in the White House. I understand that you mean that all democrazies really ARE complete idiots.

    Besides, you need the republicans to pay taxes, since the democrazies just want to draw their government check.

    I have a job and most likely make a lot more than you do. My income taxes went down a few weeks ago. I'm still waiting for you or any other one of the ignorant deluded righties who post here to show me where taxes have gone up. So let me correct what I've said above: You're not blind; you're hallucinating. Can I drink what you're smoking?
  • John Bklynguy June 15, 2009 15:45:17
    John
    He decreased your withholdings, but wait until April. Look at all the other taxes you are now paying and don't realize.

    Increased gas prices (Obama tax)
    Increased utility prices (Obama tax)
    Do you need more examples?
  • Bklynguy John June 15, 2009 16:37:04
    Bklynguy
    Yes. There is TALK about federal gas tax increases but it has NOT, I repeat, NOT actually happend yet. Gas prices have gone up due to market forces. Utility taxes? What are you talking about? Do me a favor: Don't Bogart that joint, pass it over to me.
  • John Bklynguy June 16, 2009 02:21:32
    John
    It has already happened. He increase the taxes on the oil companies, which is an increased gas tax. All Americans are paying this increased gas tax.

    Utility Taxes are the new "Cap and Trade" bill. When he wants to add taxes to the utility company that will cause your utilities to double. That is a 100% tax on utilities. He says no tax increases, but we all know the truth.

    The Republicans lost by a very slight percentage. The only reason they lost is that they did not have a qualified candidate. Of course Obama was not qualified either.
