       Some people seem to follow what's going on in government
       and public affairs most of the time, whether there's an
       election going on or not. Others aren't thatinterested.
       Would you say you follow what's going on in government
       and public affairs most of the time, some of the time,
       only now and then, or hardly at all?

       Please look at page 2 of the booklet.  We hear a lot of
       talk these days about liberals and conservatives. Here
       is a seven-point scale on which the political views that
       people might hold are arranged from extremely liberal
       to extremely conservative.
