Clinton will win easily

Yeah. I still disagree. I think the vast, vast, vast majority of people chose the candidate that they personally believed was the better choice. I'll bet there are not many people who chose someone simply to pacify someone else in their lives, especially if that selection was "against their better judgement."

No, not by the Quorum of the Twelve. The premise of the original conclusion was a stretch to begin with but it certainly made for an important cultural truism.

I have no idea what the porn use levels are in Utah. But I would trust the first study which is more inclusive despite some of its problems over what a single website is putting out there. My guess is that Utah is simply average with their porn use and that being Mormon doesn't affect the amount people watch porn, some look it a lot some dont look at it at all, most are in the middle. More studies and data are needed to draw any significant conclusion though one way or another. Even if the pornhub data is to be believed Utah still looks at a fair amount of porn despite having a large chunk of its citizens pretend they are not and calling it evil/bad.

And that makes everyone who voted for him a misogynist? Because that's the correlation you are doing, everyone who voted for Trump was either a misogynist, a racist, or voted under someone's pressure. Does that make everyone who voted for Clinton a supporter of pedophilia? Or a warmonger? Or a liar? I don't think so.

Why don't you read it. The first study was looking at paid subscribers to a particular website.

From a top-10 seller of adult entertainment,
I obtained a list of the zip codes associated with all credit card subscriptions
for approximately two years, 2006 –2008. While it is difficult to confirm rigorously
that this seller is representative, the seller runs literally hundreds of sites offering a
broad range of adult entertainment

I have read it and above is a quote from it about their source of the data. It is from a company that runs 100s of websites according to the study.

Yeah. Clearly Trump could never have been elected if not for all those people who would never have voted for him had they not been under the influence of some uneducated person who was mind-controlling them to help elect him despite the fact that their better judgement told them they really ought to be voting against him. You're on to something here.

The vast majority of voters, and Americans in general, are woefully underinformed regarding the working of government. Most people hear what they hear on TV and on the radio. Media drives the education of most Americans, and for college kids it is skewed by the agenda of the intelligentsia, which is often far more skewed than even the media. This means we will really never have an educated voter base on most issues. They hear "pro-life" or "big business" or "flip-flopper" and immediately form opinions regarding the candidates based on talking points. I have always made a real effort with my kids to get them to dig into the issues, figure out what is important to them and what the candidates are saying about those issues, and form their own opinions. This year I had 3 kids old enough to vote and we had some very good conversations about things from the economy to race relations to international relations and lots in between. But in the end that is the issue.

Why do you suppose this to be so? My best guess is college indoctrinates kids to having a cause an teaches them how to effect change on that cause. They real know nothing but they think they do. "Uneducated" republicans are not half trained an acting like these brat kids. Sometimes half trained is 10x worse then untrained.

I am not against education but I am sorry just cause you have a degree an a cause does not qualify you as a reasoned voice that needs to be heard.
