The problem is those with a degree or training more than college are inclined to be statistically more prone to support tolerance on this and other issues.

Tolerance of what? People ILLEGALLY sneaking into our country? If we're now "tolerant" of that then this country's finished, so what the hell difference does it make who wins the election?

"Tolerance" is just a PC term for lower intellectual and ethical standards. Colleges are what they are today precisely because our leaders abdicated their responsibility on a large number of issues forty years ago, and the result is that today our leaders advocate even more irresponsible policies because the dumbed-down graduates desire even lower standards.

I'm sitting here right now with a copy of my college's student newspaper. Here are "highlights" from this issue:

**A column defending Eliot Spitzer on the grounds that cavorting with prostitutes is no big deal.

**An article praising a professor for her concern for "gay rights" and for her outspoken condemnation of the recent "noose hangings".

**A profile of a Filipina feminist and her ethno-centric art works.

**An article telling us what a genius Spike Lee is.

**A column asserting that the Patriot Act has turned America into a fascist police state. This is part of a weekly series called "War Watch" which presents (of course) only one side.

So excuse me if I'm not impressed that college educated Americans are increasingly idiotic. If McCain was a leader, he'd explain why opening the borders is dangerous, rather than throwing up his hands and conceding our national sovereignty. We're in this mess because we failed to fight the culture war forty years ago.
