| Military personnel back Bush, poll finds BY CHARLES HOMANS Washington Bureau WASHINGTON � Despite Sen. John Kerry's attempts to woo the military vote, active-duty military personnel and their families remain solidly behind President Bush, according to a survey released Friday. Pollsters are legally barred from directly asking military personnel whom they plan to vote for. But when asked which candidate they would trust more as their commander in chief, survey participants chose Bush over Kerry by a greater than 2-to-1 ratio. Among the 655 active-duty personnel and their families polled, 69 percent said they had a favorable opinion of Bush while 29 percent said they felt the same way about Kerry, according to the survey sponsored by the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg Public Policy Center. "Part of it has to do with (Kerry's) anti-Vietnam protests, which are as salient for the military as his record of combat valor," said Peter Feaver, a political scientist at Duke University in Durham, N.C., who studies politics in the military. Among all Americans, Bush has a narrower advantage on trust to be commander in chief, 50-41. To some extent, the findings reflect that the military is heavily Republican. Four in 10 of those polled said they were Republicans, twice the number that said they were Democrats. |
| quote: |
Duke political scientist Peter Feaver reports that the military remains overwhelmingly Republican: Pundits have long speculated that the Democrats were making strong inroads with a constituency hitherto notoriously resistant to their appeal: the military. Since Gen. Wesley Clark threw his hat in the presidential ring, reporters have chased the "military vote" story, each new media report sprinkled with anecdotes about troops who questioned the Iraq war or who drew trenchant comparisons between the Vietnam combat valor of John Kerry and President Bush. Surely Bush is in trouble, and, in a close election, perhaps the military vote might swing the outcome as it did in Florida 2000, only this time for the Democrats. Even Kerry joined the bandwagon in the first presidential debate, citing individual military supporters he met on the campaign trail (the only voters Kerry mentioned that night). We now have fairly compelling evidence, in the form of a Military Times survey of its readership (primarily career military officers and enlisted personnel), that reports of the demise of Bush's popularity were premature. By an astonishing 72 to 17 percent margin, the active-duty military personnel who took the survey favored Bush over Kerry (Guard and Reserve respondents favored Bush, 73 to 18 percent). Frankly, the margin greatly exceeds anything that I or any other analyst had expected. To be sure, the survey method is tilted in Bush's favor, because it underrepresented the short-termers and junior enlisted personnel who would presumably be more Democratic (and thus more pro-Kerry). But the poll cannot be dismissed on technical grounds. The military is not captured in sufficient numbers by regular polls to say anything meaningful, and it is very difficult to reach the military in a targeted political survey. The Military Times readership is more reflective of career military people who at least entertain the idea of serving the 20 years needed to earn full retirement benefits, and previous surveys have established that this group tends to be more Republican. However, survey methods cannot account for a spread of 55 points. If the groundswell for Kerry claimed in earlier news reports was happening, it would have shown up here. |

| Originally posted by speedracer_mec Fact of the matter is..if you havent been in the politics scene long enough to notice that the military votes Republican everytime, then I'd say its time to start seeking a different interest to look into. This isnt about bias, its about reality, the military overwhelming supports Bush and you have yet to even mention Kerry's name and have sunk to the Clinton argument which is basically bashing Bush's name without mentioning the alternative. Your bias is making you blind to reality sir. |

Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and patriotism, will offer up all of their rights to the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done.

The British gave opium to the Chinese to keep them subdued. The French, Germans, Dutch, Spanish and Portugese colonized areas for profit and enslaved the native population. Slavery existed in the United States until it was abolished after the Civil War. The "White Man's Burden" was to civilize the world from the peoples of Africa to the Indians of North and South America. We have done something we thought just at the time and hindsight shows us otherwise. Since innocent people died in World War II, using your logic, it was wrong to defeat Hitler while he was killing millions? Calling the the US evil is wrong before you look at yourself. |
