"Education, Not Income, Predicted Who Would Vote For Trump"

The good news is, seems there's a lot more better educated folks in this country:



And for the rest, here is a wonderful Xmas present:

Poorly educated, not uneducated.

Like people who went to liberal arts schools, or Stanford.

Ahh, I see you are up bright and early, continuing on your "online protest" for the "stronger together" cause.

Noble effort my friend, but you lost, and NEWSFLASH our election process is setup as a republic, not a democracy and for good reason. Do research before you continue down this "popular vote" bullshit.


Also I love the ornament. I will buy you a couple if you're a little light in the pockets. The hard working Republican in me can afford a few of these things.

And yet the Democrats love the uneducated poor folks in the inner cities who vote Blue all the time. Only the hicks who go off track and vote Red occasionally cause them a problem. Go figure.

The IYI crowd will vote Democrat even if you put a gun to their head.

I guess I should link this for those who don't know what that means.

quickly scanned the article, is this really a surprise to anyone? i think the voting division based on education has been fairly well established for a while.

Education, or whether or not they have a degree? That is a huge difference and they do not equate at all. Point is just because you have a degree doesn't make you automatically smarter than someone that doesn't.


If they really wanted to see if Democrats were really "smarter" than the Republican voters, then they would need to fire up an IQ standard test and give it to everyone to see who really is the smartest bunch.

The most important thing from that article is that benton county (with corvallis) is one of the smartest counties in the usa. Suck it Lane County (Eugene). Or should we start calling it Lame County from now on?

wtf?

at all, you say? holy shit man.

I corrected it for you.

what is the logical end here? learning makes you stupid? is that really what you are going with?

Not at all. It is question of what you learn.

For instance, I have studied;
Ballistics,
Engineering,
Computer Science,
Engineering
Oceanography,
Naval Architecture,
Psychology,
and ....

None of which made me vote for Clinton.

So the question is which courses cause you to vote for Clinton?
Then I wonder if is education or indoctrination?

 

[3RA1N1AC]

i didnt vote for clinton.

 

[MarAzul]

i didnt vote for clinton.

Insufficient education?

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Insufficient education?

whoa, whoa. i didnt say i voted for trump, lets not jump to conclusions.

 

[blue32]

Sorry.... I guess it depends on what we are considering "education" means and how that relates to one being "smart" or not.

A degree means a person has an 'education' on paper, but doesn't mean they are smart, and not having a degree doesmean the person doesn't have an education, nor does it mean they are, or are not smart.

But, the assumption is being made here that all people with degrees have an education and are smart; and then they are using this as a basic as to judge Republicans vs Democrats, which is completely incorrect.

Edit: fixed typos.
