Whaa?

Suzanne Shaw was (inexplicably) asked which of the two US Presidential candidates she preferred.

She replied: “I’m going to be honest. I’ve never heard either of these names before.”

Doesn't that beggar belief? I mean, I get that some people aren't interested in politics. But that surely means she hasn't read a newspaper, watched the news or looked at a news website for - what? - three months? Six months? And that's just in connection with their current candidacy. She's never heard of Hillary Clinton? Seriously?

Having said that, the woman can skate. And fly.

Who is Suzanne Shaw?

I don't think it's inexplicable that they asked her about the democratic nomination - the media love to ask celebs stuff in the hope of making them look ignorant, it's a way of creating a whole "indignant" story from scratch. Britney Spears was always being asked this type of thing.

But I can only assume she was sleep-deprived or on a high from being SUCH a brilliant DoI winner, cos surely she can't not have heard of Hillary?! x

I was once asked on live radio what my views were on the latest developments in the international arms agreement...

So I shot him.

How...sad.

Heck, *I* know nothing about politics but to be honest have not been able to escape the news.

How has she not heard of Hillary Clinton? Is that even POSSIBLE?! lol.

I always think it's sad when people are politics-ignorant. Politicians control our lives - particularly (and maybe unfortunately) the ones from the United States. (Democracy -there's no such thing!!)
