I'm just not very familiar with the way polls work.

I do know that polls can be skewed in any desired direction depending on how questions are phrased.

Would you prefer to:
a. pet a cute and cuddly cat or
b. pet a smelly and dirty homeless person?

Answer - a. Therefore more people care more about animals than they do about people.

Or something like that...

In the RealClearPolitics website, I see four poll takers. They can’t all be making the same mistake in their questions.
