Washington D.C. is not a state.

Someone needs to go back to school...

In fact, Massachusetts and Virginia officially call themselves "Commonwealths," though that really doesn't mean much...

LONDON, March 2, 2010 (UPI) -- More intelligent children may be more likely to grow up to be liberals, a researcher at the London School of Economics and Political Science suggests.
Satoshi Kanazawa, an evolutionary psychologist, says "evolutionarily novel" preferences and values are those that humans are not biologically designed to have and our ancestors probably did not possess.
In contrast, those that our ancestors had for millions of years are "evolutionarily familiar."
Kanazawa argues that humans are evolutionarily designed to be conservative, caring mostly about their family and friends, and being liberal -- caring about an indefinite number of genetically unrelated strangers one has never meet or interacted with -- is evolutionarily novel.
Data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health support Kanazawa's hypothesis. Young adults who subjectively identify themselves as "very liberal" have an average IQ of 106 during adolescence while those who identify themselves as "very conservative" have an average IQ of 95 during adolescence, Kanazawa says.

According to a recent Pew poll, only 6% of U.S. scientists are Republican, while 55% are Democrat and 32% are Independent.

And what do "Liberal" children produce? More liberal bullshit?

Sure they can postulate and pontificate, but can they swing a goddamn hammer?
Fire the engines of commerce? Forge industries? Put people to work creating physical, tangible assets? Contribute to the GDP of a nation? Establish real property wealth?

Fuck no.

So she interviewed adolescent children to get her results, and also came up with this startling finding as well:

The preference for sexual exclusivity correlated with higher intelligence, the study says

HA!! Rich people voting for democrats. Funny. The very same people democrats are attacking in their desperate attempt to strengthen their base by using class warfare.
A degree does not an intelligent person make. Especially if they would march, as you believe, in lockstep and vote democrat.
Incidentally, These are also places with large cities with high concentrations of minority voters which pick democrats at nearly a 90% rate. Your point?
You are wasting everyone's time with your inane and vapid posts.
We all know who you are voting for in November. You are beyond saving.
Get this....Re: your posts.....Nobody cares.
