No reasoned answers: Is anybody over 15 years old discussing the election on these boards?

Question

The US election is pretty damned serious.

We want people who are creative thinkers, good poker players, inspiring leaders, and hard workers. I expect we want people who bring out the best in the American people.

How is this process compatible with stupid name-calling and lines that would make Beavis and Butthead look clever? Does it look to anybody else like everyone discussing the Presidential election is 12 to 15 years old?

Answer 1

I fear you have come to the wrong place...  Every once in a while a good point is put on the Y/A table, but it is soon lost in the crossfire of stupidity.  

Answer 2

Schools out today. That would explain it...

Answer 3

You're right, luckily it only takes place on here, because comparing a harvard law educated, magnacum laude president of the harvard law review, constitutional law proffessor, state and u.s senator to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears is only allowed by a 72 year old nominee of one of the two major parties.
