Re: Scientists & Politics

Here is a good read from 2014, whether you're left or right.


Two weeks after US voters installed a Republican majority in the Senate and expanded the Republican majority in the House of Representatives, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) made its own political statement: it named a former Democratic member of Congress as its new chief.

nature.com

Since the article mentioned AAAS, a very left leaning science organization, I looked up some discussions on them.

This blog is particularly interesting.

Just in case somebody comes up with that old argument about how republicans/conservatives are somehow biased against science because of their religion:

gallup.com

The belief in ghosts: liberals-42% moderates-35% conservatives-25% Kinda puts a huge hole in that argument.


Note that it's been said that Ms. Clinton gets advice from Eleanor Roosevelt...
