have believed that most college students/graduates over the past 30-40 years vote in large part Dim, I’m not sure of the percentages but it has to be at least 60-70% of college graduates are regularly voting Dim.


Nah it was about 55% in the last election and I believe Trump won with white males with college degrees.

The percentages do go way up with advanced degrees.

I cannot believe 65% in this country never attended collge.I thought it would be much lower.

I would say less than 5% of my HS class didn't attend college.

Age is a factor as well. 20+ years ago the business schools and sciences were relatively normal, so college educated over 40 is much more split. I don’t know exactly when, maybe 10 years ago, the D&I got into every department at every university. It’s been a downward spiral ever since.

We need music as a platform for the working man that can provide a voice for them. I think country music with a rebellious tone in lyrical content can give a voice of reason and sanity. Not this garbage music that brainwashes the minds and thoughts of the youth. we don't have music that speaks for the working class anymore. Just for rich celebrities and politicians that are out of touch with the real world.

Music that can stick it to the government and Hollywood anyway possible.

I spent about 6 years in college.. but I didn't go to class.. and I didn't graduate.. sooo I can safely say it's not giving money to colleges that indoctrinates. It's either the classes.. or the degree....

I fit this demographic but I went to Samford, a Baptist university, and majored in chemistry a few years back. Still, even at Samford there were left leaning faculty. They were just not as vocal back then.

I think the type of parents, home environment, discussions with family, etc. plays a big part in un-programming the liberal college talk.

43 yrs old with 2 masters and very conservative. I think it has a lot to do with what major you study and what school you attend.

I know beginning in the late 80’s early 90’s the educational system was really pushing college to high school grads regardless if those kids were truly college material. Degrees have really been cheapened over the years. I remember back in the 70’s an MBA was a highly respectable degree now a lot of college grads have a Masters degree in something or another.

You thought it would be lower than 65% of Americans have not attended college? Maybe they’re including Associates/occupational degrees? Either way it explains why there’s $1.5 trillion in outstanding student loan debt.

It was an idea so stupid, only an intellectual could believe it.

I went to UVA.

University is a tool to indoctrinate young people, and teach them the party line.

Hanson is right.

That demographic has the healthiest values. They’re the least effected by our cultural rot. And they still believe in America.

They’re also willing to fight. They’re not afraid.
