You have it all wrong. This is NOT about understanding something.

If you are a "good American" this is about being bedazzled, mesmerized, and soothed by carefully crafted words from someone behind the proverbial curtain, by someone other than Obama, who
doesn't give a rat's ass about what's good for American citizens, but only about fattening the fortunes of a privileged few.
