If you know anything about statistics you know that is doesn't take a large sample to draw basic conclusions from statical sampling.
Do the 2016 primaries prove that Americans are stupid and/or racist and/or bigots?

To the first question, yes. Not all, not a majority, but yes, a lot.0

Yes lol
It's also full of wonderful, educated, open minded and caring people.Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0 -
About 39% of Americans identify as Republican. Trump has about 35% of those Republicans supporting him at the moment. So if we say that every person voting for Trump is racist, that means just over 13% of Americans are racist. (only a little tongue in cheek)0

This country is sometimes called a melting pot of people right. Well what does one expect we have ALL sorts here. The caring and open minded and plenty of racists and bigots.....the same could be said about this board.JC29856 said:

Those two quotes lead me to believe you are a Sanders supporter since you say the record turnout for black voters supporting Clinton. The next quote makes me think you cannot beleive so many are voting for Trump. From all that you believe people are racists, bigots and idiots since they do not agree with you and your ideal candidate.

The voting turnout comment is interesting when contrasted with another thread condemning those who choose to not vote (on certain or various issues) as being complacent, ignorant, insert other disparaging term.
Damned if ya do, damned if ya don't!
That many threads are woven into our collective quilt shouldn't be so surprising.0 -
I'm not sure if I ever saw it... or just forgot about it... but Trump mocked a reporter with a disability.
He's a classless, vile oaf. The very fact that he's even permitted to carry on with his campaign, let alone draw such support, lends evidence to the OP's question in the affirmative manner.
The entire fiasco is a joke of cosmic proportions. Openly supporting such an inappropriate candidate exposes you for the qualities the OP opines as a question. It's f**king ridiculous- seriously."My brain's a good brain!"0 -

I ask the question in all sincerity.
What's the explanation that the leading democratic nominee is under fbi investigation for possible national security breach?

one state's exit polls said that 6 in 10 said that lincoln should not have freed the slaves.
so there's that."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln
