I liked the funny movie clips they posted. It pertained to what was being said and it was funny. TV shows entertain us as well as inform. Lighten up.

Look, there is literally hundreds of these clips available with no edits. Why bother faking it if you don't have too?

Is it really important that they know right then and there? No it's not.
No it's not important becsue now it's too late, you should understand that before you vote. Politicians depend on the uniformed and will support whatever is going to get them elected, you the voter need to educate yourself and find out exactly how they are going to accomplish what they are promising.

No it's not because it's too late. It's because in most cases they had already made up their minds several weeks or in some cases several months before and since then they've forgotten the exact details. Even aside from that you really don't need to know exactly what the minimum wage is or what the proposed MW is. Unless your position would change if it was higher or lower but that usually doesn't happen. People are generally either for or against the MW period

It's like when a kid asks mom if he can have some cookies 10 minutes before dinner. She doesn't ask how many she just says no

Well asking who was the first president should be really easy to answer. Jesse said he thought one guy was stoned so it's just suppose to be a funny segment.
