Of course. Educated people, those who entertain critical thinking and discussion, can see right through him, and would probably not vote for him. Educated people are harder to take advantage of and con. He has no use for them.

Except, Celeste, perhaps the educated who see a way to тАЬworkтАЭ it to their advantage.
