Nope, this is a real person,and he's a staunch Republican, especially on economic issues.By the way, what makes you think that he would be economically liberal when he makes $300,000 a year? Just curious.

Also a lot of people call Native Americans Indians.

"Moderate" pro-business type of Republican. Annoyed by social conservatives and taxes.


My turn:  (these two are really realistic, I was thinking of doing someone with just an Associate's degree for someone who is truly average, but slightly-above average is still pretty average)

Its been a while, so I will go twice

Age: 34
Gender: Female
Race: White, but swarthy (either part Italian or Spanish or just a swarthy WASP..at any rate, people awkwardly mistake her for Hispanic, Arab or some exotic immigrant from time to time)
Income: $ 64,000/ year
Education: University of Central Florida, BS in Finance she got on a swimming scholarship
Occupation: Purchasing Manager for a sporting goods manufacturer. Think skate boards and trampolines and that sort of thing. Started there as an analyst ten years ago.
Religion: Lutheran. Goes to church for Easter, Christmas and maybe weekly for a month and then stops for a year or so and tries to go again.
Martial Status: Divorced with one kid, has a boyfriend she has been seeing for 6 months.
Location: Aurora, Denver


Age: 40
Gender: Male
Race: White, has been told that he has distant Indian ancestry, but is very light skinned. Doesn't believe it or think about it.
Income: $48,000/year (household income $84,000, wife works in local Government). So, a household of roughly average earners that in turn produces a slightly-above average household income.
Education: BS in Accounting from Southern Illinois University. He got an Associate's degree right out of High School and became a bookkeeper for a landscaping business and went back to school for two and a half years when he got laid off in the post .com/9/11 recession.
Occupation: Accountant at a small accounting firm. Been working there for 4 years. Is going part time for his Master's so that he can become a CPA.
Religion: Irish Catholic, goes occasionally.
Married, two kids
Location: Toledo, Ohio
