My brother who is a Democrat works in public relations at VH1 HQ in New York. He tells me that the people in media are liberals and almost everyone in his office loves Obama. i asked him why and he didn’t give me a good answer.
Why are there so many liberals found in jobs like the media, communcations, public relations, and journalism?

Well, if it is true, that industry is more artistic. Artistic people are more open minded. Me, I am socially liberal/fiscally conservative.

That is because they wish to report their opinions as news and spread their ideology.
Watch an hour of Kewif Olberman and you’ll see what I mean.

The educated tend to be concerned with current affairs. Journalism, communications and media are a natural fit.

Because most of those people **** at math or science or anything else that involves cold, hard truths. Therefore, they stick to careers where shades of gray and appealing to emotions instead of logic are the norm.
Also, I guess I could have gone with: They can’t all be sociologists.

The definition of a Democrat today is narcissism. With nothing bigger than themselves to believe in — not G-d, not America and typically not children which a great many do not have for one reason or another and those who do typically consider them nothing more than playthings ala Madonna or pawns in their political activities ala Rosie O’Donnell. It is not a coincidence that one of the groups most likely to vote en mass for the Democrats are unamrried, childless women and children themselves (college kids).
With nothing bigger than themselves to believe in they become their own gods. And jealous gods at that. Jealous of those who would give their service to things like Jesus or America or their children. Their efforts are expended, then, trying to undermine others’ belief in the things that take reverence away from them.
It’s not surprising, then, to find so many of these narcissists are found in positions that basically demand “look at me!” “revere me!” “I’m like a god!!!”
So you’ll find them larger than life on the giant movie screen, and bringing you “the truth” on the nightly news and being in position to lecture to the children in classrooms where they are they only ones to give voice to their beliefs

my impression is that people who like to come up with firm answers and organized plans, tend to be republican,
and people who like to keep options open and change tactics as the situation arises tend to be democrat
