Not sure if being sarcastic or not. Do you believe that holds up on a purely statistical basis?

- ZoeZoeBee 10y agoPoll after poll decade after decade has shown the average American to be quite ignorant. The fact we live in a Constitutional Republic and not a Democracy is lost on the vast majority of the citizens. Only 40% can name the three branches of government, and far less than that can correctly describe the powers enumerated to the branches by the Constitution. http://www.alternet.org/story/90161/ignorant_america%3A_just_how_stupid_are_we http://www.alternet.org/story/90161/ignorant_america%3A_just...
- CuriousSkeptic 10y agoEasily! First we can agree that about 50% of the population has an IQ below 100. Let's call them idiots for the arguments sake. Then remaining 50% will most certainly have different views on things, let's say we can agree that at least another 10% have views so radically different from ours that we can call them idiots. That's at least 60% idiots rights there. QED
