Sadly, with the Internet the Mafia has lost their control over American emotions, as it was in days gone by.

"Public Schools!"Selective Service gave teachers an exemption from the draft, so the draft dodgers became teachers - So we have, and have had, large numbers of left wing teachers; old story, you subsidize something and you get more of it.

Leftism is the triumph of "feelings" over reason.
Reasoning takes effort.
Most people are lazy.
Ergo
Leftist "thought" (actually the absense of thought as emotions require no effort) predominates.

I read the article. It doesn’t say “Why” leftist thought is predominant in America. It just says that it is.
Good article though.
Welcome to the forum.

You have that right. Public schools and universities when they are not acting as the mouth piece of the left are dumbing down education to the lowest common denominator.

“Leftist thought” is an oxymoron.

Actually it’s not ‘public schools’
The correct term is
GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS

We have a winner!The problem goes much deeper than the simplistic answer.
How did the media, entertainment, public school education, universities, etc. all acquire a leftward bent.
Liberals work a lot harder than conservatives at integrating their thought into these social institutions.
We will never have much effect on government until we gain more control in these issues.
We need to stop investing in the Republican party and start working on grass roots organizations.

“There is a saying that nothing is as powerful as an idea whose time has come. If conservatives do not respond, it could soon be the false, left-wing idea now taking root in our culture.”
This statement pretty much sums it up.

"So we have, and have had, large numbers of left wing teachers;" Trying to change that as best I can...:-) It is daunting being a Conservative teacher amidst all these liberal teachers. Just recently found out that a teacher in my building is teaching an entire unit on Al Bore's "An Inconvenient Lie". Made my blood boil. In response, I handed out researched articles from official, scientifically-sound sources that offered evidence to the contrary and simply tasked the students to do the research themselves and make their own informed decisions. I actually allowed the students to do an extra-credit assignment which included researching pro/con views on globull warming, then formulating a position statement based on their newly acquired information. Nice to see that a few saw the issue for what it really is...false.
Haven't heard a word yet from the teacher who was teaching Al Bore's movie...
