Look at the other categories: you have "economy," but also jobs, deficit reduction, tax cuts, and trade. Look at "health care" too: separate categories for Medicare and health insurance.

How would you recommend parsing the three apart? Dealing with climate change could protect the environment and address the energy issue.

I think the most interesting thing from that poll is political: it provides information about which frame the administration should make their pitches with most strongly.
