this really didn’t require a poll. any thinking person would have been able to predict this. We are more divided now since January 09 than we have ever been divided, and I lived through the 60’s.

I was a teen in the 60's myself. This whole episode had made me wonder about one of my best friends. An Erkyl looking colored kid, that went by the nickname "Whitey". Not kidding.

I think you’re on spot. I’d like to see Rasmussen ask this simple question: Is America more divisive today than one year ago?

"We are more divided now since January 09 than we have ever been divided, and I lived through the 60’s."

Me too and I agree.

African-Americans, by a two-to-one margin, say the question was inappropriate
