Are straw men the only way in which you know how to operate in a discussion? Where did I say the "majority?" Where did I say "general liberal thing?" There was no other context. What I showed you was the entire conversation. I didn't even reply to that email. That was it. Though if you would like, you can explain how an alternative context would change what this individual said to make it more appropriate/accurate.
"A lot" means "many," and that depends on the context. If you have five people, four people would be a lot. If you have ten thousand people, four people would not. I am basing my own terms on the amount of young liberals I know versus the amount of young liberals I know that expected the world and more of Obama once he reached the White House. The term is subjective.
