How Not To Get Elected President
If you wanted to get elected President of the United States, which of these would you least like to be? (At least, according to the fraction of those surveyed who said they wouldn’t vote for a candidate with this characteristic):
a) Black
b) Catholic
c) Homosexual
d) Jewish
e) Female
f) Atheist
The answer is at http://www.data360.org/index.aspx?s_Time_Period=7, an interesting site for finding, sharing, and presenting data.
While you’re browsing it you can see which colleges have the largest endowment per student (there is one in the top five that will shock you), homicide rates by country (guess where the United States ranks before looking), and much, much more.
