I wouldn't say that Americans in general, are stupid at all; a bit naive perhaps, but they seem to have many sterling qualities which cannot be aquired from "book learnin'".

Many of your "stupid" Americans, have a very "educated" distrust of government and organisation, only the imbeciles still believe these have any virtue, they see the dark looming shape approaching, gathering up our freedoms, our joys, the lives of our children and devouring them, while they welcome it with open arms.
