Who is to blame for the sheer lack of knowledge displayed in this poll?

I would say that it is irresponsible of Lou Dobbs to use the terminology he did. Clinton said that the United States shared in the responsibility and did not "blame" anyone. The blame falls to the manufacturers and users of illegal drugs.

It is also the irresponsible actions of the people who participated in the poll instead of demanding Lou Dobbs practice good journalistic ethics and report the facts instead of distorting them in a way that will bolster his ratings thus generating more advertising revenue.

This may be an example of the saying: A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

Too many people are brought up and schooled under the doctrine: My country right or wrong.

They simply don't want to believe that America can be anything but that "beacon on the hill". Assumedly, they also don't realize that beside the problem of drug use creating the demand, the government's "War on Drugs" is making the importation and distribution much too lucrative for the black market.

I believe the ultimate solution is legalization. That would put the violent factions out of business.

American made and supplied guns smuggled for America's insatiable appetite for drugs makes America partially responsible.

Barry and his ilk want to blame us for everything.
