CNN Poll: Most Americans (86 %) Think American Government is 'Broken'
What do you think? Is America broken? Is our system of government broken? Or are the people that 'rule' us simply broken? All of the above? For what it's worth, the Left Coast Rebel believes that our Constitutional Republic is intact but under incredible stress from the so-called leadership that we are suffering under. This 'leadership' that has accelerated the fiscal mishap of the previous administration. The question is, since the percentage of Americans believing that our system is broken being so high - can we turn this belief, this mood into substantive change to bring our nation closer to it's founding? Can we do this through the Tea Party movement - despite what numbskulls like Arnold Schwarzenegger say?
Washington (CNN) - Americans overwhelmingly think that the government in this country is broken, according to a new national poll. But the CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey, released Sunday morning, also indicates that the public overwhelmingly holds out hope that what's broken can be fixed.
Eighty-six percent of people questioned in the poll say that our system of government is broken, with 14 percent saying no. Of that 86 percent, 81 percent say that the government can be fixed, with 5 percent saying it's beyond repair.
