Evaluate the following argument in accordance with the criteria discussed in the text.Studies indicate that close to 85 percent of university professors are liberal Democrats. It only stands to reason, therefore, that if you want to get a job as a college instructor, register as a Democrat.
What will be an ideal response?
Could be an instance of ignoring a common, underlying cause (the same traits of mind that are likely to get a person a job as a college instructor are also likely to make a person favor the Democratic party); or, more likely, college professors tend to think their interests are best served by the Democratic party, in which case we have confusing cause and effect.
