Americans are every bit that stupid. We have dumbed down our population for 50 years. And the current crop of people under 40 are the dumbest yet. Literally! The 80/20 rule applies. I believe 80% of the folks under 40 are dumb as stumps, do not pay attention, do not question the MSM, believing every word they say.
The 80% fall into the low volume news/history/current events criteria. These are the very people that Leno, Waters, and others question on the street, and they are clueless, knowing virtually nothing.
And this is why these sheep do not challenge the ILLEGAL INVASION into the USA. Do not analyze exactly how this harms this nation. Do not question anything, they are too busy playing xBox or whatever is the latest electronic game set. Electronic games have atrophied the brains of our youth. My own son was brilliant in high school, got what amounted to a full academic scholarship for everything to a great school, and bombed out after his first year, due to playing electronic games. An utter idiot!
The young I have encountered in the last ten years, electronic games is more important to them than anything. There have been a few exceptions, but largely that is all they care about. Sad really.
If I had a child today, they would never have a game set.
