The talking heads need to read these letters for historical perspective, but so many are interested in what sells. With the internet a lot of the public have become experts in science, medicine, international relations, and the Constitution, etc. I was at the dentist fairly recently and listened to an ignoramus tout his "scientific" background while denying global warming. I was there for a cleaning, not an argument, so I just listened and rolled my eyes. In the debates I have had on other threads, it's always know-it-alls who insist they have done the research, but usually default to personal insults because they have nothing. However, I know many people who I would not describe as intellectual who understand how awful and regressive Rs are which gives me hope.
