5. Bill Maher loves to tell jokes that indicate that he is smarter than everyone else.

His comments seem to alternate between unique insights and complete cluelessness. I believe that this is because he has more than one joke writer, and their political competence seems to vary. A big clue to what kind of jokes he likes to tell is the name of his previous show, "Politically Incorrect". Maher seems to think that things would be so much better if the world had much more of a live and let live attitude. That is fine. However, he also seems to deeply hate the damage that has been caused by organized religion, so he seems to have no tolerance for that at all. So, his messages seem to be, "Live and let live", "Stop getting offended so easily", and "Organized religion is ruining everyone's life".

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
