Just for your information, the poll was conducted among a very large portion of the military community; active, reserve, retired, and civilian.
No, it was a "poll" where Military Times asked all of its subscribers if they wanted to respond. A self-selected subset of an initially small self-selected subset is not valid polling, especially given the "***** effect". That is, people who want to ***** are far more likely to self-select themselves to respond.

From July 8 through Aug. 7, Military Times conducted a voluntary, confidential survey of readers, including active-duty, National Guard and reserve component service members as well as military veterans, retirees and spouses.
About 70,000 subscribers received email invitations to participate. Others were recruited via social media. In total, about 10,000 respondents completed the survey, including 2,299 who identified themselves as current active-duty personnel.
The sample is not a perfect representation of the military as a whole; it over-represents soldiers, officers and noncommissioned officers, and under-represents junior enlisted personnel. However, it is representative of the more senior and career-oriented members of the force who run the military's day-to-day operations and carry out its policies.

You Obamabots simply cannot tolerate the idea that Obama is a clueless, ineffective, and inept manager.
Your mentor Alinsky would be angry with you. Not for attempting the propaganda, but for failing at it so badly.
