It seems like one party has a vested interest in keeping peoples academic achievement at a bare minimum.

 

That's because college converts good ol' boys into elitist bleeding heart pricks like me.  I used to be Republican until I got into Berkeley, and the hippies showed me the light.

 

I am not sure if that poll should be taken at face value. It disputes trends that have been observed over many elections. I say that because college graduates are the Republican's strongest voting bloc in regards to education followed by some college. Once you enter the post-graduate level, however, the Democrats receive the most support. The Democrats strongest voting bloc in regards to education is the high school or less demographic. This makes sense because the Democrats receive the most support in regards to income at the lower income levels. Therefore, if any party has a vested interest in keeping academic at a bare minimum, I would say it is the Democrats.
