This from Gallup and the posts in this forum say it all.

Obama Retains Strength Among Highly Educated

PRINCETON, NJ -- Barack Obama has by far his greatest strength among voters with postgraduate education, while John McCain has his highest level of support among voters who have a college degree but no postgraduate education.

Go Harvard Law and go elite college education.

Obama has got to connect with the natural McCain base, in fact he's way overdue.

He can do it by talking about the economy and how their money will become worthless with McCain economics.

Is Obama planning to abolish the federal reserve?

Well I have a college degree from a Big 10 school, but I don't got no Masters or PhD or MBA. I do however have two people who I employee one with a Masters and one with an MBA and they are both still paying off college loans. I paid mine loan off first year out and 6 years later opened my own company so that I could employee these so called smarties. Things that make you go hmmmm

Guess they like Obama 'cuz they need a hand out. They may be book smart but they sure aren't smart enough to support themselves. Of course if Obama is elected they will be jobless as I refuse to pay the 60% in taxes Obama will charge me.

Big 10-ers unite! I'm one of those master degreed people who apparently is in the minority ... not voting for Obama.

But go ahead OMessiah, go after that less than a quarter of a percent of the population. Big whoop!

I have an advanced degree and I am black and I will probably not vote for any one of the candidates. Ron Paul was my candidate of choice. Although, I must admit that I do immensely enjoy engaging in a meaningful discourse with people who are highly educated .
