running commentary on the polls? They allude to the "less-educated" as being the ones most likely to vote for Trump.  It reminds me of when my kids were in school and they put the lower income kids on the slow learners list! I guess "not brain-washed" = less educated.

My mom and I keep talking about that, too. "White non-college educated" people. The race thing gets me, too. Democrats call themselves the champions for racial equality and they call Republicans racist, but they are the ones who draw so much attention to race and use such divisive talk. If being white and uneducated, means being able to think for myself, then so be it. |

It's just their way of looking down on the "lower classes" - they pretend to be all egalitarian and everything, but their true colours show when they make little jabs about "uneducated" Republicans. Then, in the next breath, they're telling you how all those "rich" Republicans don't care about the poor. So, according to their logic, the best way to become wealthy is to eschew education?

They seemed incredulous last night, could not understand how the 'polls' where soooooo wrong. Polls they manipulated to show what they wanted them to show. Reality bites. I did not like that they assumed that African Americans would automatically vote for Hillary, and all women, and all Hispanics, too. They were counting those potential votes for Hillary. The silent majority spoke last night, all creeds, all colors all American. Trump's victory speech, and I agree, very gracious. The Republican chair finally was called up and reminded Trump, thank God, God bless America. Pray for Trump. http://www.cnbc.com/2016/11/09/donald-t ... jects.html |

I voted for Trump. I did not vote in the last election, I was disheartened when my candidate dropped out of the race before our state's primary. I also voted for every libertarian on the ticket. |

Did you just cancel out my vote?!" The other lady said, "Probably! You being a minority and a woman i can't believe you'd vote for Trump!" My friend just said, "How do you know who i voted for?" LOL As i read thru the voter's pamphlet i had to be so careful. I could tell from Hillary's blurb that you can't trust what it says! I feel so sorry for those that fell for the Clinton propaganda. I don't think Trump is the savior some seem to think he is and i believe we're in for a crazy ride but i'm more peaceful and hopeful than i've been in quite some time over the state of our country. |

And then there's this great bit of stereotyping. http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/2016-e ... ur-n680106 They noticed that Trump voters drive big pickup trucks. They forgot to mention the gun rack and the hound dog in the pickup trucks, as well as the empty beer cans thrown in the back and the country music playin' on the 8 track tape player  It's funny - this same "research" was reported in a bunch of places, but where it was published greatly influenced what was emphasized in the story. |
