Stupid and Dumb are much closer than Dumb and Ignorant.

The Democrats in that video are ignorant. I would speculate that democrat politicians would prefer that Americans were dumb. Unfortunate for them, many of us who were subjected to their dumbing down tactics in America schools were too smart to fail.

I didn't spot any in the embarrassing video that were stupid or dumb.....but ignorant........all.
