Oh, well, like I said with my preferences, they /may/ affect my decisions, but they are still conscious decisions. Just because things influence our decisions, it does not automatically mean that we lack free will.

You kind of have to combine common sense and logic with free will. Just because you CAN do something, does not mean you have to or should. I COULD jump off a bridge, but I would probably die. Does the possibility and fear of death influence my decision? Yes. But I'm guessing that you're talking about the "free of constraints" part of free will. But that's really picking at the definition.
