The New Yorker's Seymour Hersh has explained President Bush's political support in this way: "I think one thing you have to face up to is the fact there are roughly 70 million people in America who do not believe in evolution--and those are Bush supporters." This may, however, be an underestimate, as the New York Times' Nicholas Kristof observed in an August 2003 column:
Americans are three times as likely to believe in the Virgin Birth of Jesus (83 percent) as in evolution (28 percent).
If John Kerry has the support only of Americans who believe in evolution, then, he will have the lowest popular-vote percentage of any major-party presidential candidate since William Howard Taft (23% in 1916). And indeed, even evolutionists may have second thoughts about voting for Kerry, seeing as how he's a descendant of apes.
