Obama makes us feel dumb.

I live in a country with the most stupid electorate in the world. Because we Americans want people like us running the political show. In other words, stupid people. If by accident, someone smarter than us gets elected, that turns us off. We don't like it. Makes us feel uncomfortable. Barack Obama is intelligent. An elite. Well educated. Articulate. That makes some of us feel uncomfortable. Especially if we're a Republican. We'd much rather have an idiot for president. A guy like George Bush. Yes, Bush makes us all feel a bit superior. Even smarter than the president. But Obama makes us feel dumb. He makes sense. But we don't wanna admit it. That especially goes for the racist amongst us. It's really a comedown for a white Republican to admit that a black man is superior. Goes against our assumption. That black people are inferior. --Jim Broede
