Voters overwhelmingly agree that the United States was founded on the ideals of freedom, equality, and self-governance (82%). A Napolitan News survey also found that 92% believe those ideals are worth fighting for.
Sadly, just 36% believe that the federal government supports those ideals, while 47% say they do not.
This belief persists whether a Republican or Democrat is in the White House.
The most recent data cited is from a Napolitan News Service survey of 1,000 Registered Voters conducted online by Scott Rasmussen April 30-May 1, 2025. Field work for the survey was conducted by RMG Research, Inc. and has a margin of error of +/- 3.1.
