Zogby Poll

512 Obama Voters 11/13/08-11/15/08 MOE +/- 4.4 points
97.1% High School Graduate or higher, 55% College Graduates

Results to 12 simple Multiple Choice Questions
57.4% could NOT correctly say which party controls congress (50/50 shot just by guessing)
81.8% could NOT correctly say Joe Biden quit a previous campaign because of plagiarism (25% chance by guessing)
82.6% could NOT correctly say that Barack Obama won his first election by getting opponents kicked off the ballot (25% chance by guessing)
88.4% could NOT correctly say that Obama said his policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry and make energy rates skyrocket (25% chance by guessing)
56.1% could NOT correctly say Obama started his political career at the home of two former members of the Weather Underground (25% chance by guessing).

And yet.....
Only 13.7% failed to identify Sarah Palin as the person on which their party spent $150,000 in clothes
Only 6.2% failed to identify Palin as the one with a pregnant teenage daughter
And 86.9 % thought that Palin said that she could see Russia from her "house," even though that was Tina Fey who said that!!
Only 2.4% got at least 11 correct.
Only .5% got all of them correct. (And we "gave" one answer that was technically not Palin, but actually Tina Fey)

You’ve got to be kidding :icon_conf

The liberal public school system in the US sucks.

Kids coming out of high school thinking that
Che Guevara is their hero.

:ohno:

Who is referred to as the Father of Our Country?
a) Abe Lincoln
b) Che Guevara
c) George Washington
d) Donald Trump

Paraphrasing Palin. Russia is our neighbor. From certain parts of Alaska you can see Russia.

So that one question is a little vague.

I agree with you to some extent Steak, but Obamania also pulled in
a huge amount of the 18-25 year olds that don't have a clue about
politic, couldn't even tell you what the different parts of the US government
are, but sure as hell could tell you how much Palin spent on clothes - thanks
to the liberal media bias.

Thus, the whole point of the thread. Some here get it, some here choose not to get it and some are just blind and dumb.

Okay, I found them. Apparently the questions were really as stated in the OP, which amazes me.

I have no doubts that a large part of Obama voters are uninformed (just like a large part of McCain voters), but if you conduct a poll with such biased questions it takes away all credibility. But I guess such things are to be expected when the questions come from an openly Obama-hating website/blog.

LOL...all I can say is I"m confident with my knowledge. Say what you want. McCain voters still insisted Obama was a muslim and a socialist when most of them couldn't even tell you what Muslim nor Socialism meant.

But they sure as hell through it around alot since Hannity said it.

And as for everything that exited Sarah Palin's mouth? It was certainly reflected in her followers. Either redneck men who just had a hard-on for her or stay at home overweight Walmart moms who had no more than a 5th grade education.

Kinda like the intelligence of their vice presidential candidate.
