Majority of Americans prefer character over policy



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

This doesn't really explain the Bush voting, where he had neither character nor policy, but 2008 candidates might find this interesting.

A new Associated Press-Ipsos poll says 55 percent of those surveyed consider honesty, integrity and other values of character the most important qualities they look for in a presidential candidate.

Just one-third look first to candidates' stances on issues; even fewer focus foremost on leadership traits, experience or intelligence.
