That's a quintessentially American point of view. I highly recommend _Anti-Intellectualism in American Life_ by Richard Hostadter. It helps explain why ignorance is such an asset to American politicians (and schoolchildren, for that matter), while intellectual accomplishments and ability generally have to be hidden. It won a Pulitzer prize, which of course proves that the author can't possibly have any common sense. Roy Lewallen, W7EL Yes, KGB likes intellectuals because they are so easily manipulated by their own self-importance. Damn, there goes my cover! Roy Lewallen, W7EL |
