Are there any Republicans at TU/e? If there are, we have not found them. Asking Americans who work at this university about their political views and their reactions to the election of Barack Obama got us a number of very serious and detailed reactions. We also heard that asking people who they vote for is ‘borderline taboo’. All four of our respondents had already voted for Barack Obama by absentee ballot sometime in the past few weeks. They described Obama variously as intelligent, reasonable, good, charismatic, gifted and calm. |
