North Carolina is stupid

Posted By on Wed, Aug 12, 2009 at 10:31 AM

We laugh about South Carolina and all of it's woes, but a recent poll shows that there are just as many idiots living in the Tar Heel State.

Barely half of N.C. voters believe President Obama was born in the United States, according to a poll released Tuesday.

Public Policy Polling surveyed 749 North Carolina voters Aug. 4-10, and found that 54 percent believe that Obama was born in the United States. Twenty-six percent of those surveyed said they do not believe Obama was born in the U.S., and 20 percent said they were not sure.

The survey found that only 24 percent of Republican voters in North Carolina believe Obama was born in the U.S.

The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.6 percentage points.

Conservative critics of Obama contend he is not a natural-born U.S. citizen and, therefore, not eligible to be president.

Let's be real, the only reason "conservatives" [read white folks] want to believe President Obama isn't US born is because they don't want a black president.

Hawaii is a state of this union and that is where President Barack Obama was born.

Are we truly to believe George W. Bush was a C-student in college when he couldn't pronounce nuclear? We believe Bush was taken by surprise on 9-11, but think that Obama was born in an African village?

Wake up North Carolina, Obama is the president and if you don't like it, the borders are open for you to leave.
