Pop Culture #11

Like so many others, my pop culture for this past week has to do with the recent election. Twitter just went crazy the night of the election; my newsfeed was so overwhelming. It was ridiculous some of the things that were said that night about how the world was gonna end and how everyone wanted to flee the United States. What was the most shocking though is that everyone that had something to say about the election was not even old enough to vote yet!!
 I chose not to vote simply because I do not want to make that decision until I know and understand all the facts on each side. These kids just blast out the most spontaneous things and have no idea what they are saying. What I saw the most was that Obama won because all the African Americans voted for him. In my opinion, just based on Census, it would take a lot more people that just that race for him to win.
Then I get this tweet asking me if I voted for Obama because I am half his color .. I do not know why people's ignorance still surprises me. Color has nothing to do with the matter. The entire caucasian side of my family voted for Obama, while the opposite voted for Romney.
If God does not return soon, this world will end because of the stupidity and short-minded people .. not because Obama got re-elected.
