The majority of my family is Republican - So why am I a Democrat? Your assumption fails.

I think it is in history that all things change. 10 million + DEMOCRAT voters this election proves nothing for both sides really. This election didnt come down to whether your a democrat or republican, it had to do with whether or not you fell for the "Barack is a socialist" scam or not. At least, what I got from my parents, who voted Mccain - they were afraid of "far left." My father usually votes Democrat but "far left" threw the decision which Im sure that was the same for many pro-mccain voters.

Depending on how well the president does, will sway whether or not the general public will follow or disperse - like Bush failing so Democrats get the votes. It doesnt mean maybe the American people wouldnt mind a Liberal outlook, it just means, ideally, situationally, this is what we need.

In my humble opinion:
Republicans breed strict conservatives or strict liberals. Democrats will breed independents and their 'game time' (election day vote) decision defines them.

Yee who defines dumb in society only parades stupidity [arrogance, and ignorance I might add] among those he judges.

That was what I responded to though, I have no arguments for/against eugenics, I just say that it is possible.

And saying that it do not lower the IQ is just semantic bullshit, you know very well what he means. If they have to raise the mean then the IQ have gotten higher, if they have to lower the mean then the IQ have gotten lower. IQ is also just an arbitrary way to measure intelligence, and the letters "IQ"is often used in place of intelligence in many discussions which is what I think the OP did.


The point about IQ is not semantic bullshit. I think it's quite relevant that people who don't want 'stupid' people to breed tend to not know the meaning of IQ. But read my original post:

Ironically, the reverse of your thesis is just as true the more 'dumb' people breed, the higher the average IQ (at least on the very short term).


I tend not to waste words, that phrase is there for a reason.

What are these words then if you don't like to waste words, thats what made me think the way I thought since it do not make sense at all if you are trying to lecture him on the meaning of IQ.

generally i have noticed a lot of kids get their political leanings from their parents.

there are exceptions but it happens quite a lot. it makes sense, i mean there are those kids who hate their parents and rebel against everything they do, but a lot of kids are fairly loyal to their parents and look up to them (especially boys looking up to fathers etc) and so i think quite often they end up rubbing off a lot of their views on that kid.

i know i absorbed a lot of my politics from my mother for example. she's pretty much a hippy and i don't think it's a coincidence that i ended up pretty left leaning
you wouldnt feel that way if it was *your* magical sword of mantouchery that got stolen - racebannon
