College educated people are afraid to express support for Trump because of the intolerant boobs whom they associate with, namely other college graduates.

You have that right! The most frustrating conversations I have are with my Hahvahd educated friend who steadfastly refuses to honor even the most basic rules of logic. And he’s a science writer.

The question of “Why” needs to be asked and understood.

I am far out of sympathy with so-called Scientific Creationism, but I did view your videos, in brief, and I do have experience in these matters, and in the spirit of conciliation I would just like to make a brief remark.

Erwin Schroedinger, in his essay WHAT IS LIFE? , says, regarding the development of human, or more generally, animal consciousness:

Are we prepared to believe that this very special turn in the development of the higher animals, a turn that might after all have failed to appear, was a necessary condition for the world to flash up to itself in the light of consciousness? Would it not otherwise have remained a play before empty benches, not existing for anybody, thus quite properly speaking not existing? This would seem to me a bankruptcy of a world picture. The urge to find a way out of this impasse ought not to be damped by the fear of incurring the wise rationalists' mockery.

His further view is that Science remains silent on such questions, and in fact gains its special power by doing so. But of course the questions remain.

“The so-called Christian Family that teaches their children to deal with life and the rest by simply telling them “Because the Bible says so”, is doing them no favor.”

Wow, you really have *no* idea what Christianity is about.

They have undergone many years of brain-washing, so it will take many years to reverse that. In fact, the damage may be permanent. You have a LONG road of frustration ahead of you.

A lot of people aren’t so much for Trump as they are against Hillary.

Watch Watters’ World on college campuses. College ain’t what it used to be.

Colleges are the “Invasion of the BRAIN Snatchers”.....they don’t EDUCATE, they INDOCTRINATE decent kids into Liberal Democrat Zombies. They suck all of their common sense out.

Two kids thought the house of representatives was called the House of Republicans. That’s awful

Just more proof that the “education” system has become a leftist brainwashing entity...

I teach federal government at the local college.

Out if 14 instructors, there are two of us that are conservative, two that are sort-of middle of the road, the rest are flamming liberals. . and these liberal push the liberal agenda.

You are right, the average recent college graduate would be hard pressed to hold his own with the average high school dropout of the fifties in several different subjects. In the area of being conned by socialists the recent college graduate is far easier to scam than his grandfather who dropped out of high school.

Ok, so their all freaked out that a bunch of dumb people will elect the next POTUS. Lets try it for a change, let the idiots take over. I have confidence they will do a stand up job compared to the last 50 years of college educated, master degreed, law licensed intellectuals.

I agree with your comments, although I am Jewish, I even believe in your tagline (from the Torah)

I teach at a Bay Area University (part time only).

I also went with Trump from day one, as I discovered that his positions were well thought out and set the agenda for the other candidates to follow.

If true, which I doubt, if you do a study of hypnosis you will find that highly intelligent (not smart) people are much more easily hypnotized than others. The dems know mass hypnosis techniques and practice them regularly.

In his final post Denninger pointed out that Alto Sterling had been stopped 50 times but still had a valid driver’s license. I found this a curious fact to illuminate especially as he fundamentally failed to grasp it’s real meaning. He tried to suggest there is irrational racism on the side of the police. A glance at the demographics of crime reveals that the police may very well have good reason to stop a black motorist more frequently. The question is what to do about it. Establishing a new racist quota will accomplish nothing and be costly. The answer is to recognize that the demographic distinction is real and reflects a very real difference in the black community culture.

It is plain as day that drugs are the reason. Whites, I suspect, are associated with drugs almost exclusively as users. The white user has options and a gig that has “better prospects” than stepping up from user to distributor. Minorities, less so. Not particularly because they are “blocked” from legitamate avenues to economic success but because drug distribution is less difficult and more available. The reason minorities constitute the majority of convicted drug distributors is the fastest, easiest way to what they perceived was economic success is drug distribution.

The black family in this country has suffered several damaging blows delivered by libtards but they continue to vote libtard. LBJ’s social programs killed the role of father. Libtards fondness for drugs killed “the rule of law” in black communities.

Frankly, I don’t see how white conservatives have ANY fault for any of this nor do I see a way we could diminish their suffering were we to try. Point being, it is a problem they need to identify and take action to correct. Blaming whites, attacking whites will accomplish nothing, IMHO, but to further deteriorate the situation.

The idea of free college is bizarre on it's face.

What she is proposing is a tax increase on all the working people, many of whom are in labor trades, or transportation and don't have college degrees. Those people are looked down upon by the elites and academics who, although they have the money for college, will join the idea of having others work for and pay for them.

The end game is to raise college costs even higher in an effort to build up the wealth and power of the indoctrination industry.
