How did my posts about a gay police chief in South Carolina turn into a discussion about President's intelligence?

As I posted, a gay police chief in a small South Carolina municipality was fired by that municipality's mayor allegedly because she was gay. In reaction, and as permitted by the South Carolina Constitution, that municipality's city council changed its form of government to a strong council form. That change was sanctioned by voters in a subsequent referendum election (as also required by the State's Constitution) and significantly reduced mayoral authority. That's a superb example of democracy at work.
