But she is in far better position (word of mouth) to know what reality is in Puerto Rico, especially in its hurricane-ravaged back country, than he does. Word of mouth, which is good enough to make a failure out of an expensively-produced and lavishly-marketed cinematic bomb, can spread a meme quickly. This time the memes that no longer have landline or even cellular phones to get out the message, are word-of-mouth. Donald Trump has only his optimism about a bad situation.

If "Red" women were to get more education (and their daughters might), then they would less likely be "Red". The personal qualities that make a registered nurse a registered nurse instead of a waitress-short-order cook- cashier at a chain restaurant off Exit 33 are more likely to make the registered nurse a Democrat. "Red" women are more likely to submit to husbands who expect such submission.

I can already predict that Mayor Cruz will be present at the Democratic National Convention in 2020. She will give Hell to President Trump and his enablers. Well-deserved hell, that is.
Gee, my Republican voting mother was a registered nurse.

As late as 1964, people with college degrees voted in a majority for Barry Goldwater despite his blowout loss to the Democrat. Most RN's now have bachelor's degrees. I am tempted to believe that the majority of them now vote Democratic. People with bachelor's degrees or higher now vote majority-Democratic.

But surely you have seen my Obama-Eisenhower overlay map. Eisenhower won the best-educated states in the 1950s. Getting a bachelor's degree requires some qualities of personal temperament, and those qualities favor someone like Eisenhower or Obama.
