Well...to be perfectly honest that is 'part' of what you were saying...BTW I am not here to argue nor did I argue as to why most teachers that choose to get education degrees may be leftwingers...as in I have seen no stats on that nor did you present any...though it does sound plausible.
My main concern in regards to that is why are there so many leftwing students in the first place...in other words why is the pool of leftwing students who decide to get a degree in education so large? Specifically...how did so many students get indoctrinated into leftwing politics? Is it the chicken and egg thing? Is it a process that cannot be altered?
I would like to think that professors should teach the facts, the truth and not attempt to impose a particular ideology on their students...but of course we all know that is not what is happening in our schools and universities..particuarly the prestigeous east coast universities that are hotbeds of radicalism.
You are right I didn't present any stats on that as I wasn't the person who made the claim our universities were overrun with them. That was your statement. Unless you believe it's right wingers overrunning our schools with "marxist/communist/socialist professors"
But while Socialism has been found on the far right and far left, I figured you were speaking to the far left on those people.
