    Everyone in or interested in college should vote for Democrats.

    The U.S. now ranks behind 12 other developed nations when it comes to college graduation rates. We are also the only developed nation in the world where this generation isn’t doing better than the generation before it. Why?

    Likely because college tuition has grown by 600% since 1985, leading to student loan debt topping $1 Trillion for the first time ever.

    Republicans want to dump more than a million students off their Pell grants.

    When talking to a republican, I'd just be happy if they had a G.E.D.

    Sadly, many dont even have that...........and as for common sense..........well, the whole Birther issue kinda settled the question whether Republicans had ANY critical thinking skills at ALL.

    His mother NEVER left the country, until Barry was 8 years old.....but somehow, he was born in Kenya? This only makes sense to a republican.

    Actually, liberals aren't likely to attend a college.. we should probably have this course around 5th grade while we can still get most of them to take it.

    The liberals have contempt for the term common sense. They erroneously believe:

    1. That they're above it and they don't need it because they're so smart and better than others.

    2. They believe those who do maintain they have it are lying, simply because they are uneducated hicks.

    This is a brief description of the pride and arrogance of liberals.
