60 Minutes/Vanity Fair Poll: January Edition

Welcome to the 60 Minutes/ Vanity Fair Poll for January 2012. The beginning of a new year can be a wonderful time. We can close out our account with 2011 and start 2012 with a renewed enthusiasm to create fresh goals and ideas for personal improvement. Hopefully our country can do the same and our leaders can come together to make progress on the many challenges we face. Let's hope for less unemployment, less war and less partisanship. Let's also hope for more unity, more civility of every kind.

To everyone, we wish you a very Happy New Year and now the results of our poll...

• What is Mitt Romney's real first name?

Forty-four percent of Americans do not know what Mitt Romney's real first name is. Twenty percent thought that Mitt was his real name, 18 percent guessed Mitchell and eight percent chose Milton. Only six percent knew that his real name is Willard. If he manages to get nominated and then elected president, a whole lot of people will know who Willard M. Romney is.

It's scarey that 11 percent said yes to killing your for a million dollars. They must be Republicans.

Hell yes, bring back the draft, but conscript EVERYONE, male and female, into some kind of national service. And no passes for politicians' or the well-connected's offspring or their friends either. I was around for the Vietnam draft and signed up for it but was not "chosen." The draft will surely put a damper on the United States entering willy-nilly into just any old war, and make service more equitable.
