More popular: sexism or racism?

Over at The War Room, Alex Koppelman highlighted a CBS poll, which he claimed showed that it may "actually be easier for an African-American to be elected president than it would be for a woman." The poll results he noted are as follows:

Survey respondents were asked two separate questions, whether -- all other things being equal -- they would prefer to vote for a man or a woman and whether they would prefer to vote for a white candidate over a black candidate. Five percent of those polled said they would prefer a white candidate; 2 percent said they'd prefer a black candidate. On the other hand, 17 percent said they'd prefer to vote for a man over a woman, while only 3 percent said they'd prefer the woman.

But over at The Caucus, Janet Elder highlighted what appears to be the opposite conclusion -- from the same poll. Elder noted that, based on the poll, "a plurality of Americans, 42 percent said racism was a more serious problem for the country compared to 10 percent who said sexism was the more serious problem. Twenty-three percent said neither racism nor sexism was a problem for the country and another 23 percent volunteered that the problems were equally serious for the nation."
