Vuk, I was taking the piss because the poll - as others have pointed out - is as artificially skewed as you can make it, while keeping a hint of a straight face. Republican pollsters should take note, you are their next push pollster.

Most people who criticise Obama do so because they are hateful, afraid, and often uneducated.
Most people who criticise Obama do so for legitimate reasons, and not out of hate, fear, or ignorance.
BONUS: The way Obama ran his election campaign was ethical.

GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

Re: Orgah Americans' Opinions On Obama
umm...how so? There are choices, do you think that Obama's policies are bad or good. Should I have both the options "Do you think Obama's policies are good?"? I mean come on, you simply say that you agree with his policies or not. If you do not have an opinion (which I would have a hard time believing :P), then you do not vote! How exactly is it 'artificially skewed'? There was one mistake, which was caught, and I clarified what I meant and have requested that the mods change it.Originally Posted by JAG

Sas, Rhyf, Khan, please don't #$%$ with my poll. If you are US citizens, then by all means give honest answers. If you do not agree with the poll or you only want to start trouble, please don't %$#@ with it. I am looking for good data here (or as good as can be collected on an internet forum).

You can agree with someone's foreign policy and disagree with it at the same time.

People who critise Obama most do so because they are hateful, afraid, and often uneducated.

If you wanted a serious poll, then you shouldn't have slanted questions like this. ^^^ I think neither are they hateful, afraid, uneducated, nor question out of legitimacy.
Pretty clearly, the left-ish side of the .org isn't touching the poll because of the slant. Try again.
