I have to disagree. If I state that a lot of rich liberals go to the beach, that does not mean that ONLY rich liberals go to the beach, it just means that many (i.e. a lot) do. No further meaning is in that sentence. I am not saying that poor conservatives do not go to the beach. I have made no statement on them and their beach going habits. It would be incorrect to assume that I have commented on their behavior.
"A lot of rich liberals (and foreign liberals) do this or that" - the statement does implicitly act to restrict the range. Without the brackets, not so much.1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.
