New American Center

When reading the results of this survey, I felt very skeptical. Not that I don't find it possible that the majority of Americans could reside in the center when it comes to the political spectrum, I just find the survey slightly suspicious. While all of the data seems completely legitimate, we have no idea where these conclusions came from in relation to the data. We don't know what the conductors of the study consider "liberal" or "conservative." To the best of our knowledge, they could have considered only very radical opinions not moderate.I also found some of the visual representations ambiguous and not easy to interpret. All in all, I do not like this representation of the data from the NBC survey.
