Conservatives are NOT mostly high school dropouts, and I never posted anything that said anything like that. I am deeply disturbed that what I posted is so mischaracterized. That is NOT what the article said, and I've never posted anything remotely like that. You could make an argument that it might have implied high school drop outs are mostly conservative, but that is not the same thing at all- and really, and that isn't what it said either:

"26 percent of high school dropouts see themselves as conservative." I can't imagine this represents a huge percentage of conservatives, and the article does not claim it does, nor does it anywhere say anything even close to that, or that these are typical conservatives, or that "most" conservatives are like that, or are that, or anything like that. 26 percent is not even a majority of the high school dropout population.

"Actually conservatives are mostly high school dropouts as X posted on the Left of Center thread "

You have made an error regarding what I posted. And I would like everyone to know that I did not post that, and do not agree with it.
