Strikes me that this must have been a telephone survey. So I would imagine that the Maquila shantytowns, colonias, favellas, and marginal farmers are somewhat under-represented in this sample. In other words, the people least likely to be enthusiastic about the free trade aganda would have been least likely to have been asked. Perhaps it would be more fair to suggest that among people with telephones in the Western hemisphere, a majority are favorable toward free trade?
