Can you imagine if Obama had been a marriage therapist? LOL. 'If you like your spouse, you can keep your spouse'. I guess the institution of marriage would completely collapse?

....and what is preventing one from keeping their doctor? Did the doctor suddenly stop taking insurance?

It seems that a bunch of comments were added and I can't find it now. Sorry. No big loss, it was somewhat vulgar, but funny and appropriate for the circumstance.

This is a serious science and making a SNL 5 Minute University (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kO8x8eoU3...) out of it is a shame. Here's an example of how such unprofessionalism can back fire. In the 1950's or '60's an American psychologist designed an interesting test for psychopaths. Apparently, it was tested among jail inmates:

At a funeral of her mother, a woman meets a man that is exactly what she wanted all her life. She instantly falls in love with him. However, she does not get his name, phone #, or any other info. A week later the woman kills her sister. Explain why.

Please attempt to answer the question before looking below for the answer.

Answer: Since the man was obviously a friend of the family, there is a good chance that he'll show up for the sister's funeral. According to the design of the test, a proper answer can only be given by a psychopath or a person with those tendencies.

Now, here's the caveat: I have given this test to a number of US born people and only one person, a scientist and very analytical, came up with an almost correct answer. I don't think that he's a psychopath. However, every person that I've given this test to that was born in Russia or Vietnam (just my sample; try it on others), instantly answered it correctly. I don't think that they're all psychopaths, either.
