0bama is at his core driven by Ideology.
People such as this are what we call “knowers”, that is that they are simply incapable of new learning when it comes to things not within his narrow Idealogical bandwidth.
If we brought him 10 or 20 statistical models of evidence based in the finest science one could find he would discount all of it out of hand, and go home CERTAIN about his correctness.
People like this scare me because they are true zealots, and with that, they become capable of anything to keep their Ideological model intact in their own mind.
To sum this up - 0bama is SCARY STUPID.
...and in the Oval Office.
