A lot of interesting things can happen when you are sitting on your front porch watching your kids play. For instance, this exchange happened this afternoon:

Random woman walking down the street: (stops and looks at Ron Paul sign in the yard) Hey, do you have any contact information for this guy

Me: Sure, you can go to www.ronpaul2012.com or do some google searches or look at some videos on youtube but I would be happy to talk about him with you if you have the time.

RWWDTS: Oh that would be great. Do you know what his rate is?

Me: Rate?

RWWDTS: Yeah, his commission

Me: I don't know what you mean

RWWDTS: (getting frustrated) My Husband and I need to sell our house but everyone else charges a lot

Me: Oh... ummmm.. Ron Paul is not a real estate agent. He is running for President (I point at that part of the sign so she can follow along)

RWWDTS: Oh....... Well do you know a good one?

Me: I know a few but if you don't mind me asking, why are you moving?

RWWDTS: We both got laid off earlier this year and we can't make the bills so we are moving to something small out of the area.

Me: Hang on a minute, let me get you the info for a friend of mine (I go inside to get a business card for a real estate agent I know)

Me: (returns outside and hands her the card) This guys will work with you. You might want to still look into Ron Paul. Our economy is in shambles and a lot of people share your story right now and a big part of it is because of the value of our dollar and I think you would be impressed to learn that Ron Paul is the only one who is running who called (I get cut off)

RWWDTS: Oh I already know who I am voting for

Me: You do? Mind if I ask who?

RWWDTS: Herman Cain

Me: ......................

RWWDTS: He is funny

Me: Have a good afternoon.
 
This is why America is in the crapper folks. If she was going to vote for someone funny, she could at least do a write in for Jon Stewart.
 
Because people are ROBOTS who watch television and get their information from the TUBE..I don't even have a television hooked up in my house.
