Recently came across a rather amusing video by College Humor relating to the recent election in USA. It came out shortly before the election and it a light hearted look at what will happen if the democrats or republicans win. Both are from the perspective of the rival party.
I found this to quite nicely poke fun at the way many people view political parties. It has become increasingly popular for people to be more ignorant in regards to political parties. Instead of focusing on the policy issues, the public (thanks in part to the media) focus too much on speculation and character assassinations. This was seen a lot in New Zealands recent election. Ranging from unusual accusations of communism to parties running smear campaigns.
There are a few rather interesting theories which propose that this is the goal of the media. Although I will get into this later. For now enjoy this amusing video.
