Isn't that more than slightly elitist and condescending?

I'd say it's closer to the truth than we'd like to think. Many millions of Americans have never formed a proper opinion on an issue of political or moral interest outside of what's been handed down by parents, teachers, priests, so on. A foreigner likely is a better source for a breakdown of our leanings, although I truly don't believe most of the claims made here. Being a lefty myself (And a moderate one at that), I consistently find myself at odds with a lot of folks in regards to my beliefs. *And I live in California*.
Then again, I can't get anyone to agree that the death penalty isn't the problem, it's the courts that are flawed!
