How Obama Got Elected: Interviews With Obama Voters

Posted November 18, 2008 * Comments(6)

Hannity & Colmes at FOX News Reported on this story last night, Monday, November 17. Documentary filmmaker, broadcaster and commentator, John Ziegler interviewed 12 Obama voters on election day, November 4, 2008, after they had voted. His purpose was to document the influence the media played in their voting decisions. These voters were chosen for their apparent intelligence/verbal abilities and willingness to express their opinions to a large audience. The first, rather shocking video below, provides some insight into which information broke through the news media clutter and which did not.

The second video is the Hannity & Colmes interview wih John Ziegler on FOX News. In between the two interviews are statistics from a Zogby poll that included exactly the same questions that the 12 voters were asked. Mr. Ziegler states in the H&C interview that he did not choose the 12 voters but rather they were chosen by an African-American female.

The information gathered in these interviews is frightening, to say the least. We all knew that the media was in bed with Obama but this clearly shows how influential they were in sending the wrong message to voters and the impact that message had on their vote. Alarming and unpatriotic!

Zogby Poll Results:

512 Obama Voters 11/13/08-11/15/08 MOE +/- 4.4 points

97.1% High School Graduate or higher, 55% College Graduates

Results to 12 simple Multiple Choice Questions

57.4% could NOT correctly say which party controls congress (50/50 shot just by guessing)

81.8% could NOT correctly say Joe Biden quit a previous campaign because of plagiarism (25% chance by guessing)

82.6% could NOT correctly say that Barack Obama won his first election by getting opponents kicked off the ballot (25% chance by guessing)

88.4% could NOT correctly say that Obama said his policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry and make energy rates skyrocket (25% chance by guessing)

56.1% could NOT correctly say Obama started his political career at the home of two former members of the Weather Underground (25% chance by guessing).

And yet…..

Only 13.7% failed to identify Sarah Palin as the person on which their party spent $150,000 in clothes

Only 6.2% failed to identify Palin as the one with a pregnant teenage daughter

And 86.9 % thought that Palin said that she could see Russia from her “house,” even though that was Tina Fey who said that!!

Only 2.4% got at least 11 correct.

Only .5% got all of them correct. (And we “gave” one answer that was technically not Palin, but actually Tina Fey)

    Matt, do you not realize that all media and propaganda are biased? Hello, Fox, CNN, all of them are one-sided for the most part.

    I’m sorry that you feel that way, Matt. Did bother to take the time to watch the second video, the interview with John Ziegler, where he explains to Alan Colmes that if the same type of interviews were done with McCain voters, the results would be very different?

    Yeah, I’ll bet you didn’t bother wasting your time.
