Trump speaks on a 4th grade level.

No wonder so many conservatives think he's a genius!

Seriously? I thought 4th graders spoke at a higher level than that...

@sstronaut They typically are a little more mature anyways.
@HoeBag I had to do a research paper on music, which I really didn't want to do, but it was what the class picked.

And basically I remember there was study on the most popular selling music, I guess it used to be at a 9th grade level, say in the late 80s, early 90s, and in the 2000s it was then at a 4th grade level.

@sstronaut Sounds about right.

I wonder what the level was in the 1970's when some music actually had some wisdom or at least made one think?
@HoeBag I tried looking for more information, but I couldn't find more research information at that time, at least not that graded music lyrics based on grade levels.

@sstronaut I know some music from back then was definitely more intelligent.

Songs like "Time" (and other ones) by Pink Floyd.

Another that immediately stands out is Kansas's "No one together". Part of it -

Lo, the horn of plenty is bursting at the seams
The harvest of the world will be our prize
We claim to know the secrets, all the answers have been found
But how can one fool make another wise?

There's nothing better than it used to be
To live and die is still a mystery
We take away and we give nothing back
We just consume it all and still we lack
