The Way We’ll Be
The Way We’ll Be
World-renowned pollster John Zogby maintains that the “great American dream” is in transition, with new demographic groups such as the “First Globals” contributing to a redefinition of the American character. This new, globally oriented generation is the first to bring a consistently global perspective to everything from foreign policy and environmental issues to consumer choices on everything from coffee to music. It is also dramatically influencing public attitudes toward foreign policy, driven by a world view shaped by greater appreciation for diversity and tolerance, America’s approach to Iraq and the Middle East generally, and other pressing international issues. Zogby will reflect on how this transition will affect the November elections, and what this shift means for America’s place in the world. Zogby International is known for its expertise in calling elections. What does Zogby foresee for this one?
