So, we are trying to conduct two surveys regarding attitudes towards scientists (and why they are often perceived as unreliable or biased) and controversial science topics (capital punishment, global warming, etc.).
So far in all the places I've posted links to these surveys, the response has been overwhelmingly liberal and left-leaning. Because we are trying to get unskewed results, I am trying to get more conservative leaning people to respond to these surveys and offer their opinions.

If any of you can, I would very much appreciate 5-7 minutes of your time to answer questions following these links:
Evaluating research on controversial topics -
Attitudes towards scientists -
If not, could you at least point me where I could post these links to get more participants?
Thanks in advance. :)

Roger, true science carries no bias, it's those pushing an agenda that skew science, eg. AGW BS.

I removed your links, do your own homework, and tell your professor Conservatives are above this blaming scientists.
Using science to prove a hoax is the most despicable thing the left has done to discredit scientists of every field.

Hell, there was no such animal as climatology before the 60s.

Yep...  they say 'science' but never talk about stuff like agronomy, which its Phd's are essentially prisoners to Government grant-money. 

'Science' is sponsored.  So ya always gotta check who's behind the curtain.

Exactly right Kit!

The lefts view of science is no different than that of their paid polling.
They get exactly the results they paid for.

Science in politics is not bad, if science is an unbiased position and can easily place its data for people to see.  The problem becomes when politics is in science, which is what we see a lot more in today's world.  Scientists with a political motivation and bias can, and do, manipulate data to fit their conclusions.  Add in grants and money and science is under greater pressure to prove certain data points.

Having worked in labs, the oil industry, and with friends in medical labs I've seen enough manipulation to not take anything science says at face value.

Yeah, you get into patent-squabbles too, which are usually politically-tied to agendas.
