Who are the super intelligent? E Asians, Jews or regular unleaded whites? I'll give you a hint there are more regular whites than any other group in the US. I fear the super unintelligent and intelligent liberals alike.

Who are the average Americans ?

I think most Americans, but specifically the conservative/Trump supporters, just want things to be "simple".

You can see this "simple" theme repeated constantly. All situations should be simple. All solutions should be obvious. There should never be a shade of gray, and if there is, the lack of a simple solution means they are extraordinarily unprepared. That leads to reactionary politics.

Education and intelligence make things complex. That we live in a world where the situation is naturally complex is not the point. If a simple, plain solution was not available, then a third party suggesting the situation is more complicated is to blame.

Your question is illogical.

You're question is vague and probably illogical and erroneous and probably racist.

Ok if you say so. But how can an unidentified we fear something mostly unidentified?

You posted a poll with no explanation of what you mean, which only has three options - the last of which is (hopefully) a failed attempt at humor. Asking for clarification in these circumstances seems fairly logical.

I had not planned for a live demonstration, but this does support my argument nicely.
