    TheDC’s Amber Athey and Justin Caruso regularly take to the streets of Washington, D.C. to ask the most important questions in America.

    This week, we asked people how they felt about President Trump’s plan to “reset” with Russia and how he promised the Russian president more “flexibility” after the next election, except Trump did none of that–Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton did.

    I love it when they take to the streets with that kind of program. It illustrates how ill and biased liberals are.:Biggrin

    I'm just wondering how conservatives would react - if a liberal pollster did the same thing,

    It's been done. Some fail the test, but most conservatives are better informed on the issues than liberals are, especially young liberals. The young ones are astoundingly ignorant.

    Why do you think that?

    ETA: I googled the words, "most conservatives are better informed on the issues than liberals are", but most of the results were just "liberalism increases with level of education" and articles about how conservatives are much more ideologically unified.

    Correlation is not causation.

    You mean that article from the highly liberal NPR? No surprise there. However, in another article it was posited that the more college education one receives the more likely one is to be liberal, especially on social issues.

    Typical colleges are indoctrination grounds for liberal causes. Has nothing to do with being better educated in general. Further, Carpro said better informed on issues, not better educated.

    That is why he thinks that.

    If a person gets a degree in elementary education from The University of Alabama (Tuscaloosa or Birmingham), will that turn them into a liberal?


    Correct. I never said or even suggested otherwise.

    Ignorant is a kind word to describe them. The only thing I can think of that truly describes them would be a forum rules violation.

    That's because they sit under the teaching of fools and become more foolish themselves. "A fool saith in his heart 'There is no God'." Most college professors are fools and people who sit under their teaching become foolish.
