Just curious, is this what the average Kerry supporter looks like?



If so, why am I scared?

Typical Kerry Supporter:
Group A: Lawyer, Academic, Public school teacher. Highly educated, tends to believe that they are more sophisticated than most people and deep down bristle at the thought of their vote being countered by some red neck Shrub supporter.

Group B: Single mother. Struggling to make ends meet. Thinks that the system favors the rich at their expense. Want more federal programs to help them.

Group C: Poor, uneducated. Did not finish high school or finished high school barely. Union worker or low skilled laborer.

Typical Bush Supporter:

Group A: Religious. Married. Has children. Believes Bush will help move America towards a more "moral" course.

Group B: Business man, entrepreneur.  Married, has children. Believes that the federal government intereferes with their lives. Wants the government off their back.

Group C: Middle class. Married, distrustful of the federal government taking away their freedoms (guns, regulations, taxes, etc.). Tend to be high school graduates with some college education or military experience.

Overall stereo type:

Unmarried people tend to be Kerry supporters with the exception of academics, union supporters, and public (as opposed to private) school teachers.

Married people, particularly ones with children, tend to be Bush supporters. 

Why this is you can figure out yourself. These are the demographics facts behind each candidate.

As religious, unmarried male, with no children, that believes I am just as "moral" as the next person, with a business background, beliveves that the government interferes with our lives, wants the government off our back, middle class, distrustful of the government taking away our freedoms, a high school graduate with some college education & military experience, I should be a Bush supporter right? Wrong! I support my beliefs, not demographics. And so should you!!!

And here's the punchline - this was posted as a joke. You know, something funny that invokes laughter. Yes, it is ok to still laugh at people, and I dare say that this woman is highly amusing supporting a billionaire for office that is so out of touch with here day to day life that it struck me as amusing.

I have, and will continue, to use both facts, data AND propoganda (because a good belief is nothing without the serious propoganda to support it) to back up my more serious posts. Anyone with a College education should have enough common sense to have not taken this so damn seriously...

So really, instead of going through a very long and way too serious reply about a few 'facts' that could easily be picked apart (when will people learn that poll data is not "factual"?) I'll ask this simple question, "Who here got the joke?".

I can tell you at least one person that DIDN'T get it. I guess in MY real world we stop and laugh once in awhile...
