While trying to demonstrate a split in the GOP on foreign policy, Peter Beinart writes :

Asked by the Times this week whether the United States should “try to change a dictatorship to a democracy where it can,” 41 percent of GOP delegates said yes, while 48 percent said no or that it depends on circumstances.

Leaving aside the merits and demerits of the rest of his argument. I think this stat is pretty weak stuff. Even the most gung-ho “neocons” think it depends on circumstances. In fact, I think it’s a bad polling question because “where it can” and “depends on circumstances” overlap each other to a huge extent when you think about it.
