Is it true or a lie ? CNN poll suggests that 60% of Americans are pro amnesty for illegals?

Answer 1

1. Poll questions can be worded to get the result you want.

2. Polls are not unbiased.

3. CNN is very liberal and wants to influence a group of people.

I would question both the poll results and the motive of CNN. Personally, I have never met one American citizen who is pro amnesty for illegals in the USA.

Answer 2

No, that's definitely wrong. I keep an eye on all polls, and have never seen anything like that ... where did you get it from? Hmmm ... on the subject of 60, percent or otherwise, the following was quite interesting, I thought:

If President Bush, the Republican leadership of the Senate and Senate Democrats have their way, 11 million to 20 million illegal aliens will receive amnesty, and at least 60 million new immigrants will be allowed into the country over the next two decades.

In addition, the Senate legislation will cost the United States as much as a half-trillion dollars in administrative, social and health care costs over those two decades, according to estimates by the Heritage Foundation. The Congressional Budget Office has just released its own analysis of the legislation, and it concludes that nothing in the Senate bill will end the overwhelming torrent of illegal immigration.

Answer 3

CNN Polls are designed to support the liberal agenda in Washington. How can their be a majority for kicking out every illegal alien on one poll and then give them amnesty on another? CNN usually asks the same people who provide them with the answers that they look for. Furthermore, CNN has been pro-amnesty since the issue came up and they will only show polls that support their view.

Answer 4

Big Fat Lie .. CNN polls in the distant past and still in the present show at the very least 90% of Americans are against ANY kind of amnesty to illegals. Just go read Lou Dobbs.

Answer 5

That number is only high because it is made up of the viewership of CNN. Typically CNN viewers like thier content tends to be more left wing. The country as a whole believes immigration policy should follow that which is dictated by the law of the land. Keep one thing in mind. The Mexican border to the south is a brutal area in which the flow in is restricted by the Mexican military and police. They use brutal tactics like murder and rape to discourage illegal immigration on THEIR southern border. All we want to do is put up a fence for goodness sake to control what comes in to the US. We have a right to do so.

Answer 6

Thats a typical media lie straight from the pits of you know where. All you have to do is look at the random responses to Hillarys Health Care question regarding free medical care for Illegal immigrants. Its located under the Immigration category. Should by on about page two or three by now. Her picture is shown. Seems pretty clear to me.

Answer 7

A Liberal slanted poll.as usual. I know of no one that is Pro Amnesty, so I cant see 60% in favor....

Answer 8

I think you misread the report. The link below is the closest I could find on CNN sites. It suggests the opposite.

Answer 9

You'd need to see the questions, the raw data, and the methodology to determine how accurate that is. I'm no pollster, but it's been proven you can get a poll to support your position, whatever it is, depending on how you word questions and when & where you conduct the poll.

And always be leery of polls conducted by organizations that have shown bias.

Answer 10

you mean 60% against Amnesty then that would be true
please post CNN link to your question?
