It's in the third paragraph down on page 2 of the report (or at least the number at the bottom of the page is 2....it's actually the third page of the pdf file). I swear this is not made up, Cacophony. This is a legitimate, and shocking statistic. And actually, the whole paragraph makes it even more disturbing:
"In particular, white Democrats who hold unfavorable views of Obama are much more likely than those who have favorable opinions of him to say that equal rights for minorities have been pushed too far; they also are more likely to disapprove of interracial dating, and are more concerned about the threat that immigrants may pose to American values. In addition, nearly a quarter of white Democrats (23%) who hold a negative view of Obama believe he is a Muslim."
Crazy stuff.
So knowing this, I'm curious what other's thoughts are on the points I mentioned in regards to it earlier, as well as any other thoughts anyone has about it. |
seriously. didn't some 50+ % of the country think Saddam Hussein was *directly* responsible for 9/11 ?
And these 23% of democrats are probably only democrats because they are in a union and their union tells them to vote democrat only because its best for the union, ignoring all other considerations. Most of the unions also support hillary clinton. so there you go.
