Poll: 30% of Texans believe humans and dinosaurs lived together
By Ross Ramsey
Nearly a third of Texans believe humans and dinosaurs roamed the earth at the same time and more than half disagree with the theory that humans developed from earlier species of animals according to the University of Texas/Texas Tribune Poll.
Did humans live at the same time as the dinosaurs? 30% of Texas voters agree with that statement; 41 percent disagree, and 30 percent don’t know.
Supporters of Gov. Rick Perry were more likely than any other group to believe that dinosaurs and humans roamed the earth together ten millennia ago.

Actual Rick Perry statement
According to a video appearing on the left-leading website Think Progress, a reporter asked Perry what he would do about the Federal Reserve.
Standing next to a “Perry President” sign, the governor replied, “If this guy prints more money between now and the election, I don’t know what y’all would do to him in Iowa, but we would treat him pretty ugly down in Texas.”
“I mean, printing more money to play politics at this particular time in American history, is almost treacherous, or treasonous, in my opinion,” he added.
