American public opinion

American public opinion refers to the collective attitudes, beliefs, and preferences of U.S. citizens on various issues, from politics and economics to social and cultural matters. It influences policymakers and shapes national debates, reflecting changing priorities and values over time. Public opinion is gathered through surveys and polls, which help illustrate how diverse populations feel about government actions, leaders, and policies. While it can be influenced by media, personal experiences, and societal trends, it ultimately represents the voice of the people in shaping the country's direction.
