A new Associated Press-Ipsos poll says 55 percent of those surveyed consider honesty, integrity and other values of character the most important qualities they look for in a presidential candidate.
Just one-third look first to candidates' stances on issues; even fewer focus foremost on leadership traits, experience or intelligence.On that character point, it would seem all the candidates are in trouble (except possibly Abe "JFK" Lincoln, who lives in a world of his own); on intelligence, well, we knew that all along. Look at some of the presidents we've elected.
