<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (tHe_pEsTiLeNcE @ Apr 12 2007, 01:21 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>I was actually talking about facts, not anecdotal evidence:13 out of the top 15 states in terms of % of people with college degrees voted democrat. And 16 of the top 20. By contrast, the bottom 16 states, and 19 out of the bottom 20, were republican.The average democratic state, given equal population has 125.5% as many college graduates as the average republican state. The average democratic state contains 27.48% college graduates whereas the average republican state consists of merely 21.89% college graduates. THAT is a demonstrable difference across a whole nation.It means democrats are the voice of more demographics.Like Freeing the slaves, civil rights, the whole idea of a democracy was radically left when it was proposed, as was much of the bill of rights, and so on.</div>Where did you get that information? Because this one on CNN shows that Democrats are both the smartest and the dumbest in terms of College Education. Dems also had the most not graduate from high school.http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2006/pages/res...0/epolls.0.htmlSo it looks like this.Least educated Middle Educated Most Educated Democrat Republican DemocratHaving more minorities is a result of income. As sad as it is, most blacks/hispanics live in inner cities, and don't make that much money. Not race only.

But I think the stats I showed are irrefutable - democrats are more educated. All your chart tells me is that democrats got more votes, which I knew already, as well as reaffirming that dems are more educated.As for having the most not graduate high school, that's 3% of voters, and clearly doesn't make much of a dint in the other 97% of the population where democrats are more educated on average..

Democrats had the more educated people vote for them, and the least educated people vote for them. How does that say they are smarter? It says it's all balanced like I said. Democrats have the least and most educated. Republicans are in the middle.

What's more important is averages, and, as I stated before, the average democrat voting state has 125% as many college graduates as the average republican state of equal population, therefore they're more educated. It's not that difficult to grasp.

I was hoping you wouldn't play that card, because there is nothing I can respond to that with that would be anything other than a mockery of that gloriously crafted and constructed argument. I am not worthy to be in the presence of such an Euleresque disprover of conjectures. A Michael Kearney of the internet, if you will. I bow down to your ability to overcome herculean odds and prove a point that was not to be proven. I have now opened my mind and realized that the view which you so eloquently expressed is clearly the one and only view out there. Thank you for enlightening me, esteemed captain.
