Low-info voters will be a GREAT deal more interested in politics once hard tyranny sinks in, loss of individual property rights becomes the order of the day.

The thing about Low-Info Voters is that you can lie to them. You can lie constantly to them and you don’t even have to be consistent. In fact, they demand to be lied to.

Just stand up and say what they want to hear. They want birth control pills. Tell them, “Hell yeah! We’re giving FREE birth control and we’ll deliver it like freakin’ pizza!!” They want their student loans forgiven. “If you elect ME, I’ll forgive your student loans AND your Visa debt. I Loooove you guys and I will let you all be on my cabinet!”

They’re stupid. They’ll buy it. They are trained by college professors to believe anything. The only thing they question is something they don’t already believe.

The problem on the Right with talking to the LIV is that we listen to our candidates. If one of our candidates goes to a college and lies to a herd of stupid, slack-jawed young “adults”, we get mad because “he’s a RINO!!” and we abandon him.

Perhaps we need a signal, like the finger alongside the nose in “The Sting”, so he can lie to the LIVs all day long. Since we’re in on the con, we can just smile and let them go.

The bottom line is that the LIV is a sheep, waiting to be sheared or turned into mutton. The Left is good at herding them and the Right just chases after the strays.

Brainwashing through years of Public Schools and dumbing down by TV—destroys Wisdom and Common Sense.

Schools insert “emotionalism” into the curricula-—to destroy the intellect-—they CAN’T “think” when they reach 18—and it gets worse if they go through the reeducation camps at universities where Common Sense is beat out of them.

They learn in universities—the Marxist/John Austin irrational thinking-—like sodomy is good and killing babies is a “right”—all the Margaret Sanger—Paul Ehrlich/Malthusian ideologies-—to destroy Reason and Wisdom of John Locke, Blackstone and the Founding Fathers.

We have to reclaim the minds of young children which is being corrupted by “Sex Ed” (created by Lukacs and cultural Marxists to destroy Virtue and corrupt little children).

People have to realize that “public education” is destroying Reason and Common Sense (Natural Law Theory and Christianity is the underlying principle of our Constitution and Rule of Law).

Schools are killing the Christian God and Natural Law Theory. Teaching sodomy is “good” throws out the Laws of Nature and the teleological aspect of human nature!!! Don’t allow media and schools to warp the sexual formation of young children to conform with little sodomized Afghani boys!!!) It is totally transforming our Nation to a muslim/occult/pagan evil one.

Virtue is necessary for a Free Republic. All Western Civ since Socrates knew this.....esp. the Founding Fathers!!! Cultural Marxists who write curricula (billy ayers-type) for public schools and universities are intentionally killing Virtue in little children. They are corrupting all the children on purpose. They know—you collapse Civil Society when you destroy Public Virtue. All TV shows promote evil behaviors in children, too.

I don’t want low information voters voting.

Voting should be harder so the lazy voters can stay home as well.

To paraphrase Trotsky, you may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you.

Low info voters like we made them that way by keeping important issues form them. Low info voters, we would be better of if we let the farm animals vote next time they know more

LIV’s will also become more interested if/when the free stuff goes bye-bye. But their interest at that point may not be of the constructive kind.

Not to be argumentative but, a spokesperson will do little good. The problem is that the media (including hollyweird) will tear apart everything they say while giving the Dims a free pass, and worse, making their argument for them. Until and unless we get a venue that the low information voter listens to/watches that will tell the truth we are lost. Our REAL enemy is the media!

Low and no info voters have ZERO business voting.

Amen to that. Bring back property ownership requirements and literacy or basic citizenship-style tests.

I don’t blame them. I’m a high-information voter and I’m about done with it myself.

LIV’s aren’t stupid: they’re bribed (by govt- handouts).

Low-informed or ill-informed voters are the biggest threat to freedom and liberty-loving people. My two youngest brothers, my Dad and my one younger sister are in this category and though they’re family I don’t have much to do with them. They and those who vote as they do(Democrats) are destroying America.
