Bodhi Tree Swaying: Reflections of a Western Buddhist

Two Democratic parties

David Brooks in today’s NYT:

…Obama has won roughly 70 percent of the most-educated counties in the primary states. Clinton has won 90 percent of the least-educated counties.

There’s something rather disturbing about that. I wonder how Hillary feels about the fact she’s very popular amongst the uneducated?

    Ahaha, Thats rather Funny!

    The Only Reason Their Getting the un-educated votes is becuase they recognise the name “Clinton”.

    I think it’s as much to do with the facts that more highly-educated people are more likely to vote for a black man, and Bill being a burgers-and-fries type of guy that ordinary people can relate to easily.
