Election Day! (Finally, change We The People can believe in!)

This is perhaps one of the funniest summaries I've seen from the Stewart / Colbert rally...clearly this crowd hasn't heard of Keynesian economics.

Alas, the one guy who very nearly distinguished himself as the lone intellect amongst the group (by recognizing the interviewer's obvious linguistic play on the words "Keynesian" vs. "Kenyan") then stuck his foot in his mouth with his follow-up answer, acknowledging he didn't know anything about Obama's economic principles.  Yikes.

For the record, let's recap a few of Obama's economic principles:

        'equality of outcome' mentality
  +    gov't-run & publicly-owned health insurance, housing market, etc. 
  +    'mandatory volunteering' principles and social reform initiatives
  =    _________

Answer: 
    a.)  Keynesian theory
    b.)  Austrian school economics
    c.)  Free market democracy
    d.)  Socialism

P.S. - Your predictions are in!  Thank you for your November Nonsense submissions!  Don't forget to vote!
