Look at any map of education demographics (highest level of education achieved) and you'll clearly see that "conservative" areas have the highest level of high school drop outs and "democratic" areas have the highest levels of college graduates. Coincidence?

I don't believe in coincidences.

Get ready to read this and weep moron. In the 2004 Presidential election Bush received an overwhelming majority of votes from College and HS degree holders. Hanoi John Kerry on the other hand received the overwhelming majority of voters who did not graduate HS. Bush also won a large majority of those Americans earning over $50k annually and Bush's majority increased with income level. Kerry received the votes of less productive Americans earning under $50k annually.
Now don't you feel like a total nitwit again?

Not any map. Detroit Michigan ( which is way favored to the democratic party) has one of the highest drop out rates in the country. Illinois, which again is highly Democratic again has a high drop out rate. Unless you are making your own map with your own crayons, just stick to the facts.

Probably because most of those "democratic" areas are issuing "Certificates of Completion" instead of real diplomas.
I went to school in a conservative area and being a drop out was unheard of. Your Dad would kill you, LOL. Are you trying to tell me the drop out rate in NYC, of Philly is lower than it is in Effingham county Georgia. I bet you will find the "high" dropout areas in Conservative states is basically limited to a few "Liberal" cities. Georgia may have a high drop out rate but the drop outs are in Atlanta and Savannah.
Besides, why are you worried about drop outs? They have rights too. The government will take care of them so why should they worry about getting an education and a job?

No.
The reply stating that liberals make less money regardless of their education....well that is because most liberals do not believe in lying, cheating, and stealing as a way to get ahead. This is SOP for conservatives.

I think you are kidding yourself. I can refer you to two hotbeds of liberalism where the schools sytems are total failures: New York City and Washington, DC. Would you like me to continue? I can fill up this space with examples that show you are wrong.

Yet Democrats are poorer at almost every level of the socioeconomic strata. Coincidence?
