This will make you despair for our society. You can infer two things from this article/video: (1) liberals want to ban books; (2) conservatives don't want to ban books, but probably because they are illiterate, and therefore presumably don't read.
I normally fly in the face of journalistic ethics in order to correct grammar and spelling within quotes, but since the following sentences reflect the almost complete illiteracy of people who set up a booth at a book fair, I felt it important to maintain the solecisms.
"Participants overwhelming chose Sarah Palin who received 53 votes putting her at 36% overall, Glenn Beck at 23% and Ann Coulter at 22%. All of the other choices received a very minimal amount of votes, with the next most popular to ban being Adolf Hitler at 0.5%."
