As
a
person
grows
and
is
raised
,
they
develop
a
set
of
beliefs
that
correspond
to
their
common
core
values
that
they
have
developed
.
This
is
known
as
their

Once
a
person
matures
enough
that
they
are
able
to
fully
understand
their
ideology
,
they
then
often
choose
a
political
party
that
encompasses
the
majority
,
if
not
the
entire
compass
,
of
their
already
determined
ideology
.
When
a
person
does
this
,
they
are
choosing
their

In
order
to
maintain

often
determine
who

how
they
vote
in
elections

Public
opinion
is
measured
in
many

but
most
often
it
is
measured
in

Polls
are
taken
by
selecting
a

from
a
general

to
gather

that
will
stand
as
a
representation
of
the

can
be

The
media
has
many
tricks
as
to
how
they
can
affect
the
way
we
feel
about
a
certain
topic
or
politician
.
Among
these
many
tricks
such
as
priming
,
framing
,
and
selection
bias
there
is
one
that
stands
a

known

This
is
the
tactic
that
lays
down
the
understanding
that
the
media
____________________
tell
us
how
to

but
that
they
____________________
,
in
fact
,
tell
us
what

This

in
American

This
meas
that
the

Some
say
that
the

in
a
sense
serves
as

in
protecting
and
bringing
