National
Security Dominates
Concerns in Moms' Poll
Verona,
PA - As Democrats highlight
President Obama's flawed foreign policy record at the Democratic
National
Committee Convention in Charlotte, NC, Patriot Voices releases Moms
Know Best
poll numbers indicating concerns over the administration's "leading
from
behind" approach to foreign policy. Day two of the poll, taken with
mothers in five battleground states, reveals an array of questions
concerning
the Obama administration's approach to national security.
"As
Democrats spent the final
day of their convention touting their national security priorities,
mothers in
five battleground states question how the current leadership of our
country is
addressing our major national security and foreign policy challenges.
The Moms
Know Best poll showed us that while of course mothers are concerned
about the
economic challenges we face, we also care about keeping our families
safe. From
missile defense and nuclear weapons to an EMP attack and President
Obama's
stance on Israel, moms want to know that our government is focused on
how to
address these national security issues," said Karen Santorum.
Here
are some of the key national
security findings in this poll:
73%
of mothers are concerned about
the type of nuclear strategy that President Obama might pursue.
62%
of mothers are concerned by
President Obama's conciliatory remarks to Russian President Medvedev.
53%
of moms thought it was inappropriate
for President Obama to tell Israel that it should alter its borders.
To
further discuss the findings of
this poll, Patriot Voices is pleased to announce that on Monday,
September 10
at 8:30 PM ET, Karen Santorum and mothers who are part of the Patriot
Voices
team will host a Google hangout to discuss the findings of the poll and
take
questions. Members
of the press are
invited to join the Google hangout and instructions on how to
participate will
be released over the weekend.
This
poll, conducted by the
Tarrance Group, interviewed 2,500 moms online who have at least one
child under
18 at home. The survey incorporated 15 open-ended questions, producing
thousands of individual responses. Of the mothers interviewed, 729 were
self-identified Independents, 911 were Democrats and 860 were
Republicans. All
were registered to vote. Please visit

find memos detailing the poll. On Saturday, a third and final segment
will be
issued detailing the poll's finding on energy.
