Least Educated, Most Impoverished.... Democrats have been running our inner-cities for the past 30 to 40 years, and blacks are still complaining about the same problems. More than $7 trillion dollars have been spent on poverty programs since Lyndon Johnson's War on Poverty with little, if any, impact on poverty. Diabolically, every election cycle, Democrats blame Republicans for the deplorable conditions in the inner-cities, then incite blacks to cast a protest vote against Republicans. http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=16500 As a point of probable interest, eight of the ten poorest congressional districts are Democratic strongholds: NY-16 (39.4%, CPVI Democrat +41); TX-15 (31.3%, CPVI Democrat +3); MI-13 (31%, CPVI Democrat +31); CA-20 (29.3%, CPVI Democrat +5); PA-1 (29.2%, CPVI Democrat +35); MS-2 (28.9%, CPVI Democrat +12); KY-5 (27.4%, CPVI Republican +16); TX-28 (27.1%, CPVI Democrat +0); TX-27 (26.9%. CPVI Republican +2); and AZ-4 (26.8%, CPVI Democrat +13). Plainly put, residents in congressional districts that supported Democrats John Kerry (2004) and Barack Obama (2008) are significantly more likely than those in congressional districts that supported George W. Bush (2004) and John McCain (2008) to have high poverty rates. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2729127/poverty_rates_and_democratic_congressional.html?cat=47 LEAST EDUCATED Congressional Districts 1.
