I listed it in my original post.  They've been doing polling for 30 years and back their shit up with data.  used by many media organizations over the years.
Also, they have ripped obama to shreds since nov by pointing out how far he's fallen in certain areas. 

Sorry, your stats 1 analysis isn't going to debunk them.  They have more credibility than you do when it comes to polling.  No offense, but "they are all liars and don't know how to do polls" doesn't stand up to 30 years of experience at top national level polling for both parties.

If you wish to disagree with the poll, tell us why people are mid-led on this topic (almost as many Dems as repubs buy into the birther stuff, actually).

The Majority of stupid in the United States, they certainly do.

But I thought 52% were smart an elected the first bi-racial president?

Obama is bi?

Well, Larry Sinclair says so. 

As far as race goes, it depends on what agenda is being pushed.

thanks TA

I like how you pick and choose 240 what to report on and what not too, 3% of both dems and independents also believe that hawaii is not a state, there is also a sizable chunk of dems and independents that are either not sure or say no that obama was born in the US...

This is the first poll I've seen on a statewide level that breaks it down so much, on this silly issue. 

it looks like people from both parties are dumbasses in NC, but more are repubs.

im sure if you polled by party affiliation as to whether 9/11 was planned by bush a lot more dems would say yes then reps...plenty of dumbass to go around ppl are stupid to say that no or they are unsure imo but ppl are also stupid to say bush planned 9/11

Its a Nationwide Trend pretty much.  The exceptions are Vermont, Oregon, Washington, New York and California.

America is overly a stupid country, especially when you consider half of Americans do not know that each state has two senators, 24 percent could not name the country America fought in the Revolutionary War and 18 percent still think the Sun revolves around the earth.  Oh and 90 percent still believe in a mythical Sky god and a Jewish Zombie.

There are intelligent people scattered in all States, some more so than others of course, but the minority does exist.

The minority is made up of intelligent people and it seems to be shrinking despite the fact that we now have access to the most information ever before in the entire scope of human history at our fingertips.

you're "sure"?

Do you have any data to back this up? 

Big diff between "planned 911" and "intentionally ignored critical intel right beforehand", but I woudln't expect you to see a difference.

intelligence is a bell curve TA so of course more ppl are going to less intelligent then the most intelligent, just depends on where you set the bar...

big difference there.

if you were famliar with the polls done about 911, which you are not...

You'd see the Q asked is "would you like to see another investigation of 911?" or "Do you believe bush had prior knowledge"?

Polls didn't ask "did he plan it".   I shouldn't have to explain this to you, but it seems you aren't well-researched in the area which you are speaking.

I personally do not think intelligence can be quantified or displayed with any test or number, but if basic facts that you should pick up from just being alive and breathing are being misinterpreted, forgotten or incomprehensible for whatever reason, then its  rather easy to state the obvious.

To be ignorant of something is excusable.  To remain ignorant after the presentation of an established fact is insanity.
