DISPATCH TWEETS






Mark Leon Goldberg - November 13, 2007 - 1:27 pm
The United Nations Foundation released the results of a major survey of Americans' foreign policy attitudes today. Americans, the poll finds, are virtually unanimous (86% of all voters) in the belief that working with allies and through international organizations is a wiser strategy for achieving America's foreign policy priorities.
The poll also finds that 73% of all voters are more likely to vote for a candidate for President who understands that "solutions to world problems require international cooperation, whether they are economic problems, environmental problems, or problems of peace and war and that international cooperation is a better way of solving some of the world's key problems." Voters also show a strong preference for a candidate who can put an end to anti-Americanism and "restore trust in America through strong diplomatic efforts and cooperative partnerships with other nations around the world."
One interesting caveat to all this is that young voters reflected stronger preferences toward isolationism than older Americans. The poll finds "young people, disillusioned by the war in Iraq, are "new isolationists." GOP primary voters, on the other hand, were increasingly open to the idea of international cooperation. "Overall," says the poll "a sharp generational difference has opened in the United States, with older Americans more inclined to support U.S. involvement in international affairs."
To view the survey data, click here. For those in the Washington, DC area, the data will be released during an event at the National Press Club at 1:30 this afternoon, featuring UN Foundation President Timothy Wirth, Brookings Institution President Carlos Pascual, Geoff Garin, President of Peter D. Hart Research, Bill McInturff, President of Public Opinion Strategies and Brookings Institution Senior Fellow Ivo Daalder.
