1. JFK wasn't frightened of 'enemy' leaders
The GOP is more interesting!

Ofcourse they 'forget' that they were all pally with Saddam Hussein the butcher of Baghdad in the 1980s

2. Another thing this shows is how screwed up and out of touch
the republicans are, with the average American (or anyone with an ounce of reason).

3. Are you going to post this in GDP?
I wanted to also but out of threads.


also from the article

This is according to a Gallup Panel survey of a representative national sample of 1,013 Americans, conducted May 19-21.

Although separate Gallup polling shows that few Americans view Iran favorably, and that Iran leads Americans' list of top U.S. enemies in the world, the new Gallup survey also finds high public support for presidential-level meetings between the United States and Iran, specifically.

About 6 in 10 Americans (59%) think it would be a good idea for the president of the United States to meet with the president of Iran. This includes about half of Republicans, a majority of independents, and most Democrats.

4. I'm out of threads, but also realized that this is a GE issue.
I've posted a lot of GE polls here because it isnt a primary issue. Almost time for GD-P to be obsolete.
