Usually, I have little interest in the Political threads.  But, I do like Business and what folks do for a living.  
From 2015, these dudes at Verdant Labs aggregated some FEC data on political party contributions and came up with this.

Some of them match very well to what I've seen:

Democrats - Pediatricians, Architects, Flight Attendants
Republicans - Sheriff, Pilots, Plumbers



If you click on any of the Industry circles, it drills down even further.  The Military and the Restaurant & Bar ones are interesting:

That said, what's up with all the left-leaning priests?

You should lodge an ethics complaint against them.  And I would find a much better therapist.  There are a few of us out there not looking to push an agenda.

From my experience, anything mind related has been raped by the left. Students are taught to "worship" everyone from their professors on up, and any right leaning thought is considered a clinical problem. It's disgusting.
