I realize that I was a lot younger then, and most likely a lot less aware of things, but my memory in the 1960s is that there was maybe a few polls on a Presidential election, maybe one or two within the last month or so. Like I said, there may have been more than that and I don't remember them, but I know for sure that there wasn't anything like what we are bombarded with now, daily polls about elections more than a year away. It has to be crystal clear to anyone with more than a few brain cells left that the whole purpose of this constant "polling" is to manipulate public opinion. Just look at how much we are being told about the "front-runner" in the Republican race when the first primaries and caucuses are months away, and the field hasn't even been filled in yet!
WELL SAID!!!
