9. From the comments: "Ignorance can be fixed but stupid is forever"
I think part of the intense passion in this primary is due to the subconcious realization that there really isn't much time left to change the self-destructive course humanity seems to be set on. Problem is supporters on both sides have different views as to our best course of action. My view is for Obama, someone willing to get the best advice from all POV and then making informed decisions, free of the pressure from self-centered corporate concerns.

I think most Americans ARE ignorant, not stupid, and an Obama presidency that returns transparency to government would help blow away the clouds of ignorance so many are wilfully immersed in.
