<p>But that&#8217;s not what I&#8217;m really interested in. I&#8217;m interested in what you think about this.</p>
<blockquote><p>When it comes to ending global poverty and fighting the war on terror:</p>
<ul>
<li>80 percent of those surveyed* by the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.barna.org" title="barna.org">Barna Reseach Group</a>, who self identified as strong McCain supporters, believe fighting the war on terror should be a more important priority for the next president than the global effort to end extreme poverty.</li>
<li>11 percent of McCain&#8217;s strongest supporters feel the opposite; the fight against global poverty should be a greater priority than the war on terror</li>
<li>Whereas, on the other side of the political aisle, 30 percent of Obama&#8217;s strongest supporters place a greater priority on fighting terrorism than on ending global poverty. And 45 percent reverse that priority.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What do you think about that?</strong></p>
<hr />
<p>*1,005 U.S. adults were surveyed in the custom research Compassion commissioned Barna to conduct.</p>
