Breakfast with Uncle Jim

There is an old saying that, "A dog can be the King until you throw him a bone". Meaning a person's true nature will over come a facade, eventually.

This morning, over a cup of coffee, I said, "looks like Obama is leading the race". Uncle Jim's response was, "A black Muslim as President? That is the devils work. Obama is the devil incarnate".

This is one of the bad points in a democracy. A Stupid person's vote counts the same as everyone else's. Uncle Jim will not vote because he has identified a qualified candidate to defend the constitution, but rather whether he thinks they are the devil or not.
