You do kinda know college kids will say anything just to mess with others right?
Right?
Sigh.

I suppose the above statements about credibility of the interviewees apply to this, also?

Well no kidding....
Who answers opinion polls though? People? Taking the video at face value, those students were just your average everyday people.
If you want to take the credibility of the video to task, go right ahead, but I think you over-estimate the intelligence of todays youth.
I didn't watch the video, but the statement about credibility of the interviewees can be applied to that video, as well as any video you see on YouTube. Don't always assume everything you see on YouTube is real.

So that Romney clip couldn't have been doctored or cherry picked but the subject of the thread was?
Well not too long ago several people signed a petition to outlaw dyhydromonoxide. Just shows that there are some not so bright people. Not shocking at all. The corollary to Jesus' assertion that the poor will always be with us. So will the stupid.
