2. they didn't ask who I'd fear, but they did ask who looked trustworthy
and who I would likely be friends with

and no black lady, but a black man, who I thought looked the most honest BTW, he had sincere & caring eyes compared to the rest of the pics

:shrug:

3. I just did that one too - but had to really pay attention to whether
I was being asked what "I would do" vs. what I thought "most Americans would do" --- I hate to admit that I generally wound up indicating that most Americans would be prejudice, homophobic, ignorant doofuses.

:(

7. The white guy with the short hair and a tie - I picked him as "least likely
I would pick him as a friend" -

5. Hi Eleny! they set the question up as "who would you least likely to vote for for Prez"
and then gave a list, Mormon, Gay, Atheist, Woman etc etc with about 20 choices

I chose Mormon :evilgrin:

8. I went and finished the poll after I posted my earlier reply
I answered the same as you for that question. I looked at all the choices and felt I should be honest. If Scientologist was on the list, that would have been my choice. I wish I could say I wasn't prejudiced about Mormons in the presidency but I am.

For many of the questions where they asked how I thought most Americans would choose, I had to say I didn't know.

For the first question with the photos, I was least likely to be friends with the younger woman on the right.
As for who I would approach in the gas station questions, it just didn't matter to me about any of them. When you need directions (or whatever the heck it was about), who the hell cares who answers!

:hi:

9. I just completed that one as well.....
Zogby never ceases to surprise me. Do Walmart & NASCAR pay Zogby to include them in every poll? They never seem to mention any other retailers by name.

Oh, btw, I tried to answer honestly about what "most Americans" would do. It'll be interesting to see the final results.

10. i think it's a demographic thing rather than WallyWorld or Nascar
paying them.

It may be just a way of finding out if you are poor (insert ethic slur here) trash

:rofl:
