So I was at Domino's two nights ago waiting to pick up my pizza when I overheard this convo:

Domino's Deliver Guy: "So did you hear McCain picked his new VP. She's a female!"

Cook: Oh yeah? Who is she, Hiliary Clinton?

Domino's Delivery Guy: "Nah, some other woman. She's Republican.

Cook: Oh, Condoleezza Rice?

Pizza Hut Domino's Delivery Guy: Yeah, yeah, that's her!"



Me: ....the hell?? blink.gif



Now I know some people aren't all too interested in following politics closely. But being this misinformed? How do you get Condoleezza and Palin mixed up? Come on now.


How closely do you follow politics?

I regrettably do not follow American politics like at all... though I do hear more about the politics down south than about Canadian politics. I mean, I just found out recently there's going to be an election here soon. xD


It's really sad. I need to pick up a newspaper and turn on the news more often.

I CNN at times, so I hear about it on TV, but then I hear a lot more about it online as well. I'm not old enough to vote yet so I don't really follow it as close as I would if I were allowed to vote, but still I'm not THAT misinformed. Lmfao.

That is INCREDIBLY upsetting.

Seeing as I'm at university studying Politics and American Studies, I tend to keep up to date, lol. I want to work in Washington someday.

I tend to keep well informed of current affairs in general, as well, not just the political stuff.

I don't follow politics, but at least I am informed. I was really surprised when I took Government Junior year in high school and there were so many people that did not understand the way that the government even works, let alone the people who work for the government.

I really dont pay attention to politics much. When i do hear about things i hear it either from friends who are interested in politics or my parents when they are babbling at the dinner table.
