10% of College Graduates Think Judge Judy is on the Supreme Court

SERIOUSLY, JUST HOW IGNORANT ARE KIDS TODAY?

According to a story at CNN, 10% of college graduates surveyed in a poll believe “Judge Judy” serves on the United States Supreme Court. And it got even worse when asked who was the father of the US Constitution and principle writer of the Declaration of Independence. GOOD GRIEF!!! How could a generation of people be so uninformed.Worse yet, these are the kids in college? I guess these college kids think the other SCOTUS justices must be Judge WapnerJudge Chamberlain Haller from My Cousin Vinny and Judge Reinhold.

What happened to the country I grew up in?

Judy Judy

Nearly 10% of college graduates surveyed in a poll believe Judith Sheindlin, aka “Judge Judy,” serves on the Supreme Court.

Sheindlin is an American lawyer made popular as the judge on a court show by the name of “Judge Judy.” The show features Sheindlin handling small disputes in a courtroom, but Sheindlin does not serve on the Supreme Court of the United States.

The poll, conducted by the American Council of Trustees and Alumni in August 2015 but released in January 2016, concluded from the 1,000 surveyed that college graduates “are alarmingly ignorant of America’s history and heritage.”

The survey also found 28.4% of college graduates correctly identify the father of the Constitution as James Madison. About 59% of college students surveyed believe the father of the Constitution was Thomas Jefferson, who was actually the principal writer for the Declaration of Independence.

It also found that almost 60% of college graduates couldn’t correctly identify a requirement for ratifying a constitutional amendment and 40% of college graduates didn’t know that Congress has the power to declare war.

CNN/WMUR Poll: Socialist Bernie Sanders Trouncing Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire

THIS IS INSANE … A SOCIALIST IS DESTROYING HILLARY CLINTON IN NEW HAMPSHIRE ...

According to the most recent CNN/WMUR poll, Bernie Sanders, a self-proclaimed socialist, leads Hillary Clinton by a whopping 27 points in New Hampshire, 60% to 33%. Holy Cow!!! Are you kidding? Sorry, but Trump may not be the story in the 2016 race, but instead Sanders. It may be the Democrats who are scrambling for a last second candidate for president if Sanders keeps this momentum up. Is it possible that Clinton has a better shot of beating Trump than Sanders? That’s what a recent Monmouth poll says. Think about what that says about Democrat primary voters. Just how far LEFT have Democrats gone and how damaged a candidate is Hillary Clinton?

FEEL THE BERN!!!

Bernie Sanders2

Bernie Sanders’ lead over Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire is on the rise, with the Vermont senator leading the former secretary of state by 27 points, 60% to 33%, a new CNN/WMUR poll has found.

The new poll, mostly conducted before Sunday night’s debate, found Sanders’ support has grown by 10 points since a late-November/early December CNN/WMUR poll, which found Sanders holding 50% to Clinton’s 40%.

New Hampshire Democrats’ views on the race are solidifying as well, with 52% saying they have definitely decided who they will support, up from 36% who felt that way in early December. Among those voters, Sanders holds an even broader 64% to 35% lead.

New Survey Shows Nearly 20% of Likely Democratic Voters Would Vote for Donald Trump Than Hillary Clinton

MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, HILLARY CLINTON IS NO GUARANTEE FOR DEMOCRATS …

According to a recent survey by Washington-based Mercury Analytics, 20% of likely Democrat voters say they would cross sides and vote for Donald Trump. Could The Donald actually peal away discontent Democrat voters who have been provided no viable options by their party? Although I would have to some what question the so-called 14% of Republicans that claim they’d vote for Clinton. First, if so, they need to have their heads examined and the GOP cards taken away from them. Second, such a claim does not fit the political environment of trending toward political outsiders and against the party in power. However, if so, it does go to show you what is wrong with the Republican party in that they would ever consider voting for a corrupt, lying, Washington insider like Hillary.

Donald Trump Dem defectors

A new survey of likely voters might at least raise momentary dyspepsia for Democrats since it suggests why it wouldn’t be a cakewalk.

The survey by Washington-based Mercury Analytics is a combination online questionnaire and “dial-test” of Trump’s first big campaign ad among 916 self-proclaimed “likely voters” (this video shows the ad and the dial test results). It took place primarily Wednesday and Thursday and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percent.

Nearly 20 percent of likely Democratic voters say they’d cross sides and vote for Trump, while a small number, or 14 percent, of Republicans claim they’d vote for Clinton. When those groups were further broken down, a far higher percentage of the crossover Democrats contend they are “100 percent sure” of switching than the Republicans.

CNN Poll: More Americans Say Terrorists are Winning than Ever Before

According to a recent CNN/ORC poll, Americans have lost confidence in the Obama administration to stop a terrorist attack and defeat ISIS. Even 59% of Democrats are expressing concern in how the Obama administration is conducting the war on terror. Way to fundamentally transform America Barack!

Obama_poll CNN terror

Americans are more likely to say that terrorists are winning the war against the United States than they have been at any point since the September 11 attacks, according to a new CNN/ORC poll.

The public is broadly unhappy with the nation’s progress, with nearly three-quarters of Americans saying they are not satisfied with how the war on terror is proceeding. That figure, following terrorist attacks in Paris and San Bernardino, California, this fall, is well above the previous high of 61% who said they were dissatisfied in August 2007.

While less than half of Americans say the terrorists are winning, the current 40% who do believe that is 17 points above the previous high of 23% reached in August 2005. Another 40% say neither side has an advantage, and just 18% say today that the U.S. and its allies have the upper hand — 10 points off the previous low for that measure, reached in January 2007.

Majority dissatisfaction with the war on terrorism crosses party lines, with even a majority of Democrats, 59%, expressing unease with the case prosecuted by the Obama White House. Seventy-nine percent of independents and 86% of Republicans also say they are dissatisfied with how it has fared.

But of course, Barack Obama is the most admired man in America for 2015. Which is the reason why this may be the most ignorant and useless poll ever.
