Poll and interviews say Obama’s race a U.S. campaign issue

  1. RFM, are you a racist?
    RFM, do you occasionally have feelings of racial prejudice?
    RFM, how often do you beat your wife?

    Postulate 1: It ALL and ONLY depends on how one asks the questions.
    Corollary A: Certain questions will never be answered truthfully, no matter how one asks.

    These polls are worthless.

  2. Well, yes. But headline writers may also be worthless. I think they’re referring to the same poll.
