Fresh off his re-election, President Barack Obama is asking his supporters to complete a survey that asks the people being polled to check off which “constituency groups” they identify with – there are 22 groups listed. 

The post-election survey, distributed through https://www.barackobama.com/to “take this organization forward,” includes the question, “Which constituency groups do you identify yourself with?   Select all that apply.”   

(But, well, um…., no Men? ….  no Whites)
