Democrats are cool. Their policies are socially acceptable. They represent the downtrodden, work-class people.
Republicans are socially backward. The only reason they're not as smart as Democrats is because either:
- They're Southern, and don't know how to read, or
- They can read, but the only things they read are Christian.
I'm not making an argument for either side here. I'm simply stating the message of the Viacom Propaganda Machine.
