Poll -- The public doesn't care about Democrats' priorities
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 1/25/2016 | Staff

2016 Elections: Democrats like to portray Republicans as out of touch. But a new poll shows that it’s Democrats who are fixated on issues the public could hardly care less about, and who are too trusting of government.

I am coming more concerned about income inequality. My solution is to stop working to lower my income. Of course I will not be able to pay taxes or spend any money in the economy, but possibly could qualify for some entitlement.

The key is the use of open ended questions instead of predetermined options provided by the questioner. This poll asks the people to identify what their priority concern is, not to pick one from a list. As usual in this framework, the exotic left wing crapola barely rates a mention.

College degrees in black studies and feminist history are already worthless. Once we have free college there will be a sudden growth in other worthless majors that pander to the unqualified.

Oh no...these are the fodder to fill the positions in the next liberal administrations around the nation's cities, states, and in DC. Bernie's plan is to put liberalism into high gear and make U.S. become like the failures of Europe.

Respecfully, don’t count on it. Progressive indoctrination has brought the radicalized part of the electorate to more than fourty per-cent.

...and if smug conservatives "stay home" cuz its not quite "the nominee" of my liking,
that's a vote for the enemy...
if your are a friend of my enemy, you are my enemy.

Not suggesting that one should stay home.

Suggesting that they will conspire to overcome the highest of turnouts from non-Progressives.

That’s all.

I will crawl over broken glass and debris to vote.

Period.

“Gun control and global warming being two really good examples. If the public really wanted gun control, really wanted drastic action on global warming, elected officials at all levels of government would reflect it.”

Curious if the public REALLY wanted gun control would they have millions of guns they have?

Just a thought.

That is precisely why the move from paper ballots and mechanical voting machines is such a ruse....

Exactly. I do suspect that there will be a lot of us “right wing whackos’ who will be in the trenches watching for voter fraud, if the election is held...
