If they are SO smart, then why...

If they are SO smart, then why do they vote for Democrats / Liberals / Communists?

America's smartest cities

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Ever wonder what happened to your high school valedictorian? He or she might just have wound up in Washington, D.C. That metro area has the nation's highest percentage of residents with college degrees.

Call it America's brainiest place to live.

In the District and surrounding suburbs, 47.3% of people 25 years or older have bachelor's, master's, professional school or doctorate degrees, according to new Census Bureau data released Tuesday. The national average barely tips 25%.

The figures don't surprise John Schmitt, senior economist with the Center for Economic and Policy Research in D.C. The city is built on jobs that require degrees.

"There's a very high share of federal government employees here," he said, "and people dealing with the federal government, including defense contractors, lobbyists, businesses that want to influence the regulatory process; there's lots of lawyers."

"Clearly, the biggest factor is still the presence of federal government jobs," he added. "But a lot of people in the 20s and 30s come here interested in public policy. There's an excitement about being in Washington, especially among young people who want to make a difference in the world."

Yeah, lots of lawyers, that's the answer! If you'll look at the charts in the article, you'll see most of Americas commie / lib enclaves. Who says there's no liberals indoctrination in college? If 80% of college graduates left with a degree and infested with FLEAS it would be called an epidemic. But getting them indoctrinated to vote to the left is called Higher Education!
