It was a ridiculous question and had nothing to do with jury selection. That being said the ones that went along and gave an answer to that question were the people who would just go with the flow and not challenge the validity of what was told to them. The ones that took a stand and refused to answer such an inane question showed that they were independent thinkers and were willing to stand up for what they believed in and not fold and give in to convention. Supposedly the lady was the only one who refused to answer the question and that was why Bull knew that she was a natural born leader and others would listen to her.
Why Bull asked the lady the same question again at the end of the show sort of went over my head, too.
