*The liberal-leaning Democracy Corp <http://www.democracycorps.com/>, founded in 1999 by former Clinton adviser James Carville and Democratic pollster Stanley Greenberg* conducted a poll last month indicating a majority of Americans believe Democrats are less likely to keep America safe than are Republicans. The survey, titled "A new Democracy Corps-Third Way survey"<http://www.democracycorps.com/strategy/2010/03/the-politics-of-national-security-a-wake-up-call/?section=Analysis>, was released Monday and shows that 51 percent to 41 percent of Americans believe America's standing throughout the world has dropped since President Obama took office 13 months ago On the question of keeping America safe, Democrats trail Republicans by 14 points and by 31 points on ensuring a strong military. *According to the Democracy Corp Web site, "A new Democracy Corps-Third Way survey provides a wake-up call for President Obama, his party, and progressives on national security.* This is the first of what will be a series of jointly conducted, in-depth analysis by Democracy Corps and Third Way of the public’s views on national security, and the results are sobering." Democracy Corps calls itself an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to making the government of the United States more responsive to the American people. Third Way calls itself "the leading moderate think-tank of the progressive movement." -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
