Exit Polls Suggest Strength With Democratic Base Helped Stem Clinton's Primary Slide
- I''''''''m sure there are many college educated and non-college educated individuals in Ohio and certainly many tip outside the norm. However, as a group those less formally educated tend to react based upon fear of the unknown versus using critical thinking skills to extrapolate what might occur if you look past all that. Due to that fact, the polls are very striking that the non-college educated voting overwhelmingly for Hillary while the college degree holders leaned significantly in favor of Obama.craigh9
It is also a fact that the intelligent and the young take in the propaganda, believing it. This is because they are more likely to drown themselves in politics becomming ammuned to propaganda. There is a book on this written by Andras Szanto, 1973. Just remember that having a degree does not always benifit everyone. Its not all about memorizing information or being a critical thinker but to be able to take all the information and the facts and contrast and compare them. Being a critical thinker does not always support that. - Reply to this comment

Well for the record he has lied, not just once but many times,for instance on NAFTA, and on PAC and Lobbyist. If you cannot see that he has also been speaking out of both sides of his mouth, then I feel sorry for you. - Reply to this comment

- Obama''s problem so far is that he has relied on slogans and rhetoric without providing many, if any, specifics about what policy changes he would make.

You said it very well. This countries racism is nothing compared to that of Sexism. On the news a reporter had said that Racism kills but Sexism doesn''t. Sexism has always been around not only in this country but abroad. How many women and children in the United States are raped each year? How many are abused, kidnaped? How many are murdered? How does this relate to sexism? well it does. Sexist have an inferior complex with the opposite s*ex. They are most likely to show their false superiority by using force or aggression. Sexist do kill. How many pregnant women have been murdered? Look at how many shelters are in this country for abused and negleted women and children? Yes this is a very big problem. I heard about a *** game, a child molesting game. This isn''t women''s creation. Look at all the National reporters who have made sexist remarks. Sexism is a form of hate. I would be so embarassed if I was a sexist man. Thank God we have some real men who have no problem with women and consider them an equal in intelligence and mental strength. This country will not be right until the sexism and racism goes away. For racism is it all about skin color? That seems trivial. I think the problem is TRUST between the whites and blacks. I know many nice black people who are friends and we all share similar ideas. If we treat each other in the same respect life can be good. The problem is some don''t, and that is why sexism and racism are still around. - Reply to this comment

The fact that exit polls show that the poorer, less educated and older people tended to support Clinton is testament to the fact that she stands in the great tradition of the Democratic Party. We are organized to promote the interests of those who are the least secure. - Reply to this comment
- Obama is no perfect angel, he tried to portray himself that way, sitting on a cloud, one fault, which he has man and he falls hard, that is what happens if you are trying to sit high.

- The exit polls in both Ohio and Texas are very telling. In both states one demographic made all the difference in the primaries. Hillary won by large margins with the less educated voters. Isn''''t that interesting - she is bouyed by those that as a group buy much more into the negative campaign she is running and the fear she invokes - while those that are more educated and more likely to think for themselves and what might really be best for the country shy away from her. Not exactly a ringing endorsement for Hillary.craigh9
Not so bus boy,
I along with many others here in Ohio have a college degree or two. The media has made you blind. The college students who have supported Obama are not necessarily highly educated or wealthy. Many are still in college, living off of Daddy''s paycheck. I know a man who is 72 years old, who would make any highly educated Obama voter look pathetic. Can you speak, write, and read in all the languages,even the most ancient? I doubt it. His wife is also very intelligent. I know quite a few older people who fit that description well, though they may not be wealthy now, they had their time. Hillary Clinton supporters I have to say use common sense, something the Obama supporters lack. The young adults have not lived in reality, let them try int one time and that might wake them up. - Reply to this comment

You said it very well. This countries racism is nothing compared to that of Sexism. On the news a reporter had said that Racism kills but Sexism doesn''t. Let me state that racism has not been a top issue in a long time until Obama showed his face, now there is a devide. But sexism has always been around tremendously not only in this country but abroad. How many women and children are raped each year? How many are abused? How many are murdered? How does this relate to sexism, well it does. Sexist have an inferior complex with the opposite ***. They are most likely to show their false superiority by using force or aggression. Sexist do kill, do abuse, do rape and this country is full of them. Thank God we have some real men. - Reply to this comment
