Read the following extract from the above article and answer the related questions. A bare majority of Americans support President Obama's plan to send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan, but many are skeptical that the United States can count on Afghanistan as a partner in the fight or that the escalation would reduce the chances of a domestic terrorist attack, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll. The support for Mr. Obama's Afghanistan policy is decidedly ambivalent, and the nation's appetite for any intervention is limited. Over all, Americans support sending the troops in by 51% to 43%, while 55% said setting a date to begin troop withdrawals was a bad idea The poll was conducted by telephone from Friday through Tuesday night, with 1,031 respondents, and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points. Questions 1. About how many people in the sample supported sending more troops to Afghanistan? 2. Suppose the headline had read as follows: "Poll Finds Slim Majority of All Americans Back More Afghanistan Troops." Offer some objections to that.
