I don't think we want to teach science based on polls.

Most americans believe in ghosts. 43% of young adults believe in astrology suggesting that may reach majorioty support soon.

Most Americans don't understand higher math or science so it doesn't make sense to decide what math or science to teach based on polls.

I agree that Zogby isn't trusted and that majority doesn't mean that its correct. Still, it's scary that in the real world the majority rule does, in effect, mean that it's right. They decide the issues on war, health, education, etc. :(
