Why are you people making fun of them!? Obama was totally not born in Keynsa... there's even super goverment documents that prove it (I think)

I gotta admit, I wasn't aware of what a keynesian is before I looked it up. If you had asked me on the street, though? I probably would've asked what it is, professing my ignorance on the subject.

 

I wouldn't have assumed that they were asserting he was not born in the US.

 

EDIT: Do they edit these types of videos so that only the 'interesting' responses are shown or are they showing everyone they asked about it? Like with the common knowledge videos asking seemingly simple questions, I wonder if they even ask the people who understand what a Keynesian is...


yeah that guy in the red white and blue did know. He said he didn't know barack obamas economic policy, so he couldn't say one way or the other, but the interviewer held his ground and asked "until it's proven either one way or the other right?" and then the guy's wife realized that he said keynesian and not kenyan.

I think 'man show' did it better when they asked people to sign a petition to end women's suffrage. Now that was too funny.

I was going to post something similar but then I caught the Keynsa. Very good, very subtle.

What you said about?  Once I got it, I found it clever .  Cool.  However, your post would of likely caused a bunch more to fall in a pit, so I posted what I did so others don't.  Others are having enough problems with the original post.   If your attempt was to generate a bunch of falling into the pit posts, I am sorry you messed it up.

WTF!!! Didn't these people have government class?!! Wow.

Obama is very much a keynesian, judging from the huge stimulus package.     remember, GDP =  trade balance govt spending etc etc etc

By the way, I have a confession to make.  I am a Knizian.  I like Lost Cities, Through the Desert and a number of other boardgames designed by him.  Anyone else a Knizian?

I hope being one doesn't jeopardise my U.S citizenship.
