Re: "so this is how Americans perceive ...they root against America...." That was such a silly, biased poll question. (The answers to which, I'd argue, are UNIMPORTANT.) The question FOX should have asked is "Do you want American to succeed?", or "Do you want American interests to prevail in the region?"... or even "Do you believe THIS PLAN (A, B, C...) will succeed?" NOT 'do you want the President's plan to succeed?' --- THAT is an example of one of the oldest 'no-nos' in the book of polling: conflating two separate things into one question. After all, WHO CARES who gets credit or blame? The important question is 'is a win to be scored?' (They are trying to muddy-up the waters by interjecting a President's name into the question... meaning that opinions will be forever impossible to properly delineate because the question has been confounded with attitudinal biases.) A ROOKIE example of a push-poll... or of a non-serious polling effort. But, FOX made you think what they wanted you to think. No doubt, that was their intent.
