1. Most Poll samples are based on random digit dialing of telephone numbers. This does produce a random sample of those with a phone number, but are any Americans left out of the sample? Do you think American who have no home phone or cell phone are different in any politically meaningful ways from Americans who do have a phone?
2. What do public opinion polls reveal about the attitudes younger Americans have toward government since 9/11?
3. An overwhelming majority of Americans express support for the freedoms of political minorities in the abstract. Yet when asked whether they support freedom of speech of atheists, communists, or neo-Nazis, many say no. What do you think explains this contradiction?
