I don't judge folks positively or negatively because of the letters after their name. There are some very wise people who have not gone to college and some dummies that have, in my opinion.

I've never been asked to participate in an exit poll. Do they ask, "Are you blue collar?", "Do you have a college degree?". Just wonder how they get this data.
