Can't you for get the public just for (say) five minutes to do a _little_ bit of thinking about the world without first consulting opinion polls. Since when do opinion polls consitute The Truth About the World.

You are not replying to Lou Proyect here. You have some obligation simply to look at reality, not at reality as reflected through headlines and opinion polls. So far you have refused adamantly to say anything at all about what you think.
