CLEP US Government

Category - Public Opinion

Studies show that Americans formulate political opinions:
  1. Only about topics on which they are knowledgeable
  2. Only if they are political activists
  3. When those topics appeal most to them
  4. About topics on which they have very little knowledge
  5. Never. Americans don’t formulate political opinions
Explanation
Answer: D - Americans don’t seem to have a problem formulating opinions about political issues they do not understand or about which they have very little knowledge. This is in part an issue of the media providing superficial news stories on complex political issues. But most of the reason is that Americans like having opinions and they like expressing those opinions.
