They found that many of the least intelligent voters were also the most unaware of their own skills.

'To the extent that you are incompetent, you are a worse judge of incompetence in other people,' Dunning said.

This has ‘republican’ written all over it.

1) This isn't a Democracy
2) If it's true that we are stupid (Which I don't believe) we will live with the consequences of our actions.
3) God didn't make stupid people. The problem is we have alot of intelligent people who think they are right who have no clue how to think.
4) It's our jobs to educate the people.
