During his first year in office, Barack Obama announced that 9-11 would officially be declared a day of community service. It was actually his radical green czar’s idea.
First Lady Michelle Obama wore a $207.90 T-shirt by Tom Binns and John Eshaya at a National Day of Service and Remembrance event at the Vinson Hall Retirement Community in McLean, Va. on September 11, 2010.
There’s a reason why Barack Obama and democrats fears 9-11 – It’s the same reason that they fear Independence Day.
It’s scientific.
Exposure to the American flag only boosts Republicans.
A recent study found that even a brief exposure to an American flag shifts voters to Republican beliefs, attitudes and voting behavior.
Via US News and World Report:
Just a brief exposure to an image of the American flag shifts voters, even Democrats, to Republican beliefs, attitudes and voting behavior even though most don’t believe it will impact their politics, according to a new two-year study just published in the scholarly Psychological Science.
What’s more, according to three authors from the University Chicago, Cornell University and Hebrew University, the impact had staying power.
“A single exposure to an American flag resulted in a significant increase in participants’ Republican voting intentions, voting behavior, political beliefs, and implicit and explicit attitudes, with some effects lasting 8 months,” the study found. “These results constitute the first evidence that nonconscious priming effects from exposure to a national flag can bias the citizenry toward one political party and can have considerable durability.”
Theirs is the first study to look at the political impact on Americans who have seen an American flag, and it seems to back up another recent Harvard University professor’s study that found that kids who attended a July 4th parade ended up leaning Republican when they grew up.
It’s also sure to prompt GOP presidential candidates to add more U.S. flags at their events and speeches.
No wonder they want to make 9-11 a day of community service.
