Hard question here
I've seen numbers saying that over 50% of the population has some colleg and 40%+ has college degrees. Exactly how many Democrats fit the "only high school" label? I think working class includes people with some college now.
To be honest, how many working class people are there in America now? Union membership has shrunk so far that I'm doubtful that it is a good marker. I'll try to look at the Census tomorrow, but I think the "uneducated class white" meme is probably not nuanced enough to really capture what is going on. I suspect education is not the issue. Social conservative and religiously conservative are the issues, and aren't being captured by the media because of the "education" meme.
Not class but culture. That would make more sense to me.
