Discuss the issue of education and the lack of understanding of statistics among the general population.
Idiots, I am unsure, but don't understand statistics, most probably, yes.  As a country, we don't do a great job at education, especially on things like statistics, we are also kinda lazy when it comes to finding out facts.  People hear that a candidate won a poll, but don't take the time to look at by how much and what the margin of error is.
