At 68 years of age, it’s safe to say that I know a lot of people. Those of the liberal persuasion prefer iPhones. Those who don’t hate America or themselves seem to prefer Android. I’m not the only one who has noticed the pattern. Of course, the iPhone is also popular with government workers, probably because they can afford them. As a powerful and influential Microsoft alumnus, I got a free Windows phone. Works for me - no one else can figure out how to use it :)
Rush uses an iPhone.
Samsung’s Android phones aren’t low end.
I am around veterans on daily basis, veterans from the Korea era, Vietnam era and wars in the Middle East. These are very conservative people who seem to hate Obama more than I do. Men and women who have fought and sacrificed for their country. Not one of these people could ever be accused of hating America.
I know this to be true because it is often a topic of discussion, most have iPhones. I do too. I hate it, and I am currently in the process of shopping to replace it. But it is absurd to believe that iPhone owners hate America. Several of the hate-America types I know are the liberals in my family who just love them some Obama. My younger sister and older brother for example, both love Obama and have said they want Michelle Obama to be the first female POTUS. And both own Samsung.
Homos and muslims love iphones too.
I will soon be 66, and all of my friends are conservative. They ALL have iPhones and Apple gear. Few want to have anything to do with going back to Windows or have anything to do with Android and Google's invasive policies.

Dude, some strange Apple hater has stolen your ID and password and has posted a strange posting implying that the MANY FReepers who own and use iPhones hate America or hate themselves. I suggest you change your password before further damage is done to your reputation.
Well, that explanation doesn’t work for FReepers who have iPhones ... LOL ...
Sir, congratulations on your 68 years. I'm only 63, but I daresay I know a lot of people too.
In my opinion and experience, your observations are not only faulty, they're simply nonsense. Further your implication that iPhone users hate America is grossly unwarranted, not just because it's incorrect, which could be chalked up to the limited sample you observed, but because it's insulting to those of us who love America, are not liberals, and simply prefer to buy high quality products and are willing to pony up the extra cash for them.
Have a good evening, Sir, but pray, no more of your proclamations such as those above. IMO they're not worthy of this forum.
