Bobert still does not answer the question about why Harvard, Yale, Washington Post, New York Times and Bobert himself uses the term Somewhat.

Just Blowhard diversionary tactics.

First Bobert claims.

""Somewhat agree" and "somewhat disagree" are the same..."

Then Bobert says: "if the US is somewhat typical" By Bobert's previous statement Somewhat typical is the same ans somewhat not typical. So why would he use such an ambiguous term to try to prove anything?

Also the learned Bobert said "I factor in the "corporate/establishment variable" which means that the number is probably somewhat higher... Learned that in "Statistics 201" which dealt alot with polls..."

According to Bobert somewhat higher also means somewhat lower so there he is again violating his own rules.

So all he can do is make personal attacks instead of admitting he is wrong or that Harvard Yale, Washington Post & New York Times are wrong for using "somewhat agree"

"Any pollster who actually passed Stats 201 (3 credits) wouldn't have *deducted* that "somewhat agree" = agree and would have designed a poll that was more academically honest..."

Bobert is saying Yale and Harvard are academically dishonest.
