Your icon reminded me to tell you- I listened to his podcast today, and read up on a few different sites. I definitely like him...now it's just a matter of learning more and continuing to research a few of the other candidates.
I talked to my dad- apparently he is currently favoring Thompson as well!
Didn't take the test, but I agree with the substance of what you were saying. Some people looks for devils under every rock and tree. It's their bread and butter.
I haven't done the hardcore research to distinguish a favourite among the candidates..shocking, I know. They all have their good and bad points, and there are pro/con things I need to research, to find out if this or that allegation is true.
One thing is for sure: Fred Thompson's voice is really, really...really annoying. His voice and the accent. Mostly the accent, actually. I hear him filling in a lot for Paul Harvey, and the thought of listening to that for 4 to 8 years sets me on edge. How does his wife stand to listen to him speak every day?
I'm not saying I wouldn't vote for him. I'm just saying I'll prefer the transcripts over the soundbites, mmkay? I can't think of any public figure whose voice irritated me SO MUCH. Fran Drescher maybe.

Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for European American compared to African American.
I agree that the mindsets we are in suck. However, I don't think there is any plausible thing we can "do" about the issue.
