Exclusive–Caddell: Breitbart/Gravis National Security Poll Shows Americans Feel Obama Made America Less Safe, Reluctant to Protect Us

Breitbart:

A majority of Americans are worrying more about terrorism and are blaming President Barack Obama for their heightened sense of danger, Democratic pollster Patrick Caddell said after analyzing the results of the latest Breitbart/Gravis National Security poll.

 

Respondents were asked about the new normal in the poll, which was conducted Sept. 20 with of 1,503 registered voters. “Do you agree or disagree that the incidents of domestic terrorism we are experiencing this week in New York, New Jersey and Minnesota are the new normal and we are going to have to accept that,” they were asked.

 

Sixty-five percent of Americans disagree that these incidents represent a new normal which they must accept; 47 percent disagreed strongly, while 30 percent agreed. Only 7 percent agreed strongly.

 

“That question on the new normal–that Americans should just accept it–the answer is very simple: We will not,” said Caddell. “We are not Europeans.”

 

The next question in the poll asked if the Obama administration was reluctant to take action to stop and defeat these attacks.

 

Fifty-eight percent of respondents said they agreed; 51 percent strongly agreed that these attacks could have been avoided if the president was not reluctant to act, compared with 37 percent saying the Obama could not have prevented the attacks.

 

Caddell said the 20-percentage point margin in that question tells him that Americans have a much looser bond with the president than is reflected in his straight popularity polls.
