I really didn't gather the full reason they banned the solar farm from
the article. True, two citizens that made comments were nuts but you
find that anywhere.

…e.g., “Obama is a follower of Reverend Wright!!!,” but is also a
Kenyan born Muslim.
Go figure. It’s the death of critical thinking in this country. It has
spawned lots of ignorance. Did you know an elected city zoning board
in Woodland, NC just banned a solar farm on the grounds that it would
steal too much of the sun’s energy, thus putting photosynthesis of
plants and crops at risk? Yeah, that just happened in the U.S.A….in 2015.

I think that was misunderstood. My point was, regardless of the
candidates, is that the vast majority of voters simply don’t know the
facts, don’t care about the facts, and are not prepared to provide a
vote that is based on research and education. I can ask 10 people
what the Trans Pacific Partnership was about and 10 of them won’t have
a clue. Show a picture of Biden to 10 people and I’d be surprised if 8
of them recognize him and his position in the government. Most of them
don’t have any idea of our country’s history, could tell you the
difference between Democracy, Socialism, and Communism, or even know
who fought in World Wars, the Civil War, or even which side won. The
fact is, even with all the resources available to the public today,
the average voter is more ignorant today than in the past. The all
know the Kardashians but few of them could name off their Senators or
Congressman. This isn’t partisan, this is the state of our country
today. Picking out supporters of any candidate for being ignorant is
trite when the entire electorate is clueless.

I think calling people ignorant because they support an opposing

Trump is appealing to the base fears and anger for a large number
of people who believe nobody else is addressing th those concerns.
I had to laugh today. I saw some consultant interviewing a bunch
Trump supporters. Some lady said she didn't like Obama because he
was arrogant and thought to much of himself. I thought, "wait a
second. You are a trump supporter?" Doesn't Trump have nearly the
entire market cornered on that trait?

Really, and Hillary supporters don’t even acknowledge she sold
influence in that State Department for billions and took
hundreds of millions for bogus speeches. All candidates have
followers that really don’t know what’s going on so singling
out Trump is bogus if you don’t add the voters who thought
Obama was going to pay their mortgage (that was a real
Einstein moment). With 90% of the people not even knowing who
the vice-president is, you can always find idiots who will
vote for Mickey Mouse if he said he was for some hot political
topic.

The scary thing Stefan is not Trump as much as his
followers...when they are interviewed it reminds how narrow
minded they are...they think professional wrestling is real
among other things but I might offend some on list...
